urlview and url_handler.sh help
Hi, guys -- We've just installed urlview-0.7 from the contrib directory; now we have to figure out how to use it. When presented with a message with an embedded URL, Ctrl-B properly brings me to a list of them, but going to one and hitting return does nothing. Um, what do I do? The urlview documentation is surprisingly, well, sparse :-) TIA! Interesting note: I found that I had a url_handler.sh in my ~/bin with the comments indicating that it was last edited by Liviu Daia on Oct 30 1997, while the one enclosed in the tarball I got yesterday says he last edited it May 26 1997.

Re: automatic limiting (by date)
Hi again!
I suppose I should answer my own question now that I've figured it out;
this works pretty well and I'm even looking at letting my script clear my
procmail log for me.
...and then David @ BigFoot said...
% Hi, folks --
%
% I dump my incoming mail into =F.* with procmail, and I have a little
% alias that keeps track of the log and gives me stats like
%
% -rw-r--r-- 1 davidtg 0 Mar 1 15:24 .mail.log.date
% The current date is: Mar 2 08:37
%
% 50
% Folder: /usr/bin/formail
% Folder: /var/spool/mail/davidtg
% Folder: F.funnies
% Folder: F.lists
% Folder: F.mutt
% Folder: F.news
% Folder: F.root
%
% I can thus see how many new messages (50) have come in since I last
% cleared the log, and where they landed (a few just went through formail,
% some hit $MAIL, and the rest landed in =F.*). If I stay on top of things,
...
% I'd like to whip up a little muttrc which says
%
% source $HOME/mutt/.muttrc
% push 'l ~r 01/03/2000-'
%
% and then fire up mutt on the F.* folder using -F to source *this* muttrc
% file, but I can't get the push grammar right. Maybe push isn't what I
% need to just limit the display, perhaps. Help!
The little script that checks the date of last clearing and then
generates the date-limited muttrc (as well as generating the folder list)
is attached. As expected, it was simply a matter of quoting properly :-)

Should be easy enough to add that feature though. You can't configure this in your Muttrc because there's also no way to tell urlview to use another configuration file (ie. no -f option). That's another easy and probably useful addition to the program. :-) Regards, Mikko -- // Mikko Hänninen, aka.

save-hook problem
Hi guys, I recently unsubscribed from the list because I was overwhelmed by the amount of mail I was getting. I'm now going to use procmail. Anyway, the question I have is probably trivial for most of you. I've tried to define a couple of save-hooks in my muttrc and none of them have any effect on what I think they should have an effect on. Let me explain it a little bit what I mean. As I understand the concept of save-hooks, they are intended for routing messages to various places after they have been read. The routing is done according to some rules. Now, none of that is happening on my computer whether I use just regular expressions or message matching rules. One more nuance I should tell you about is that I use fetchmail for retrieving my mail. Therefore, the only explanation I've got is that the hooks will work only if I use the built-in POP3 client. All the other hooks including fcc-hooks work fine. I would appreciate any help.

Hi, this is a short addendum to my previous message about save-hooks. It was suggested that I provide more detail about my muttrc configuration. Unfortunately, I'm at work right now and can't send you guys a copy of my muttrc. I hear some of you say "well, then wait till you get home and then send the darn muttrc". This is what I was going to do anyway, but my impatient nature is driving my fingers to type this message. All I can tell you right now is that I'm using Mutt 1.2iand this is one of thehooks in my muttrc: save-hook [EMAIL PROTECTED] +test This is supposed to move allread mail coming from gerases@email.uc.edu (my email address) to "test". Thisis where I got stuck basically. The abovehook is the only save-hook in the muttrcright now. So, thereshouldn't be any conflict there. Ialso have a couple of ignore statementsat thevery beginning.Initially I thought that the "From:" field was weeded out somehow and I commented outall the ignore lines.

Well, I'm not sure based on your description whether you've understood save-hooks correctly or not. When you specify a save-hook, you set a *default* folder for saving a message to. For example, save-hook ~t [EMAIL PROTECTED] +mutt-users specifies that the default save folder for emails which are addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be the folder +mutt-users. This doesn't mean they will be *automatically* saved there, it only means that when you press "s" for saving a message, that +mutt-users will be the default value in the prompt, and you can just press enter to save the message there. So it doesn't do automatic saving, it only affects things when you're saving a message yourself.
