Is the subscribe command good for anything?
I use mutt 1.2.5, and read a few mailing list. I also use automatic filtering of my mail to put it all in the appropriate mailboxes. And I'm wondering what the subscribe command in mutt does, other than showing what mailing list the mail was sent to rather than who sent it. Since each mailing list goes in its own mailbox, I already know the mails were sent to the mailing list in question, and would much rather see who sent the mail. So, does the subscribe command have any actual use, or is it just there to annoy? Even if I tell mutt "unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED]", the list-reply command still works. -- smund Skjveland ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) PGP signature

Re: Is the subscribe command good for anything?
In addition to what Peter said, I will add the following :
I use filters the same way as you. I modified the display variable so
that instead of seeing the list address I see the sender's address.
~~
# sorting for lists
folder-hook lists.* set sort=threads ; set sort_aux=date ; \
set index_format="%4C %Z%{%b%d} %-15.15F(%41) %s%| "
# display the "From" not the list in index view
~~
By putting this in my .muttrc, I also get the list mail sorted by
threads. (All my lists go into =lists/list_name)
HTH,

(BTW, the index_format is only 1 (or was it 2) characters different
than the default, the docs on the web site explain it and the various
options)

Mutt and IMAP
Hi.
I need to access an IMAP box and its subfolders. But I have some
problems with it. So I have some questions :
1) How do I browse an IMAP folder if I don't want to specify it as my
default mail directory ? If I try to open {user@server}INBOX or simply
{user@server}, I see the messages, but I can't browse the folders. I can
browse the folders if I specify it as my default mail dir (set
folder=...), but that's not what I want because I already use a local
mail folder with a lot of mailboxes in it.
2) Can I create/delete subfolders from Mutt ?
3) How can I move mail from one subfolder to another ?
4) And the last question, but it's not specific to IMAP : can I specify
several ID's (name, email, and signature) ? I know about folder hooks, I
have set some, but I need to answer with one or another ID, to mails that
are in the same folder. Is it possible ?
Thanks for any help. I tried to find those in the docs, couldn't...
Maybe I didn't checked well enough, though, so if you know wher I could
find the answer...

Order problem...
Greetings! I have noticed that when I bring up a folder (using mutt -f x), it is bringing it up and displaying it in an order OTHER than sorted by RECEIVED. It appears that it could be sorting by date by default. I think this is the only folder that this is happening to, as I have about 20 other folders that appear to be working properly. When I hit (o)rder / (r)eceived, it obviously displays them mail like I want. Any ideas as to why this is happening and how I might correct it? Thanks! = Scott A. Davis ! [EMAIL PROTECTED] !

IMAP folder hooks and other troubles
I run mutt (1.0.1i) on a local mail host (using mbox mailboxes)and use a number
of folder hooks as follows:
folder-hook =Lists/Mutt-users 'macro index leftchange-folder?tab9enter'
This works fine. I now try to use mutt (1.2.5i) over imap to the same box and have
the following folder hook
folder-hook '{hobbiton}Mail/Lists/Mutt-users' 'macro index
leftchange-folder?tab10enter'
where {hobbiton}Mail/Lists/Mutt-users in the browser gets me into the
correct mailbox. Ths folder hook doesn't work, in fact, I get errors on
startup
Invalid content of \{\}
for the line in question. If I define the macro without the folder hook,
it works fine. If if define the folder hook like:
folder-hook Mail/Lists/Mutt-users 'macro indexleftchange-folder?tab10enter'
mutt accepts the folder hook but doesn't act on it. Any ideas?
Second problem. I'm using imap-4.7-5 on the server and am getting
irritating delays accessing email. I'm in a folder and hit tab for the
next unread. Sometimes I get it almost instantly while other times (I'm
thinking a folder refresh or something here), it takes up to 30 seconds or
so and I get these two messages:
Message 1425 UID 468 less than 1425
Message 168 UID 3481 greater than last 170
Mean anything to anyone? Better imap server? I don't get such delays
using M$ Outlook Express from the same client box to the same server for
the same user.

Now i already use procmail to find attachments by looking at the header for 'Content-Type:.*multipart/mixed' which eliminates PGP and alternative attachments. So just let Mutt match a pattern in the header for Content-Type:? set for some attachment to score accordingly and show it with %N in the index. -- ~~~
