change-folder macro
Hello, There's one type of macro I can't get working: Pressing Ctrl-q should bring me to the qmail folder (=qmail) and Ctrl-m should bring me to the mutt folder (=mutt). Thanks -- Kirill

Sending mail with attachment from a shell script

Message-ID re-writing
Hello, using Mutt-1.2.5 here. I'm re-writing my Message-ID headers using qmail-queue, but while experimenting with that header for the benefit of a sendmail-using friend, I came across this phenomenon. If I use my_hdr to add a Message-ID header to the stuff I am sending, Mutt will _still_ put its own into the headers and I will end up with two of them in the outgoing message. However, if I use the "E" command before sending the message.. and manually add my own Message-ID header, Mutt will _not_ generate the extra header and it works as I would like it to. Anyone know why my_hdr doesn't work as I expected it to here? Please copy me on replies, not currently subscribed. Thanks!

Using a randomly-rotated 3- or 4-character string would be far better than using an incrementing single character. Regardless of what types of kind of sarcasm about paranoia you can throw at this, I think there are enough people who would appreciate such an improvement -- especially one which has no detractors other than folks who just are not willing to change things. Many people (besides myself) rewrite Message-IDs for exactly this reason. This change would make that no longer necessary. Do you have people looking at your User-Agent string? Yes/no? How do you know? Well if you aren't concerned then you can leave the string in, or take it out; that's why this option exists. Someone somewhere didn't like it, and now we have the user_agent option. Did you disparage that idea at the time too? ;)
IMAP and multiple accounts
Hi--
I'm converting to mutt from Gnus. So far, I'm impressed by mutt's
speed. :) However, there's something I was doing with Gnus that I
can't figure out with mutt, and I was wondering if somebody could help
me out:
I've got an IMAP account at work, and an IMAP account at home. When
I'm at work, I'd like mutt to check my (multiple) inboxes at work and
my (multiple) inboxes at home. When I decide to file a message into
another mailbox, it would be nice if I didn't have to type the entire
name of the server and mailbox; it would be nice if mutt would prompt
me with at least the current server name, and probably the current
IMAP hierarchy name.
Currently, I've got something like this:
set folder="{mail.home.org}"
set spoolfile="{mail.work.com}INBOX"
mailboxes {mail.work.com}INBOX
mailboxes {mail.home.org}INBOX
mailboxes {mail.home.org}INBOX.*
(I'm using cyrus, so all mailboxes are "INBOX" or "INBOX.*".) But it
only appears to check {mail.home.org}INBOX for new mail; if I'm
reading mail at home, and something comes into the work INBOX, it
doesn't tell me. And it doesn't appear to check INBOX.* at home,
either.
Everything else that I want to do, I think I can, due to the excellent
flexibility of mutt.
TIA.

default and restore color issues
Hi, I'm not subscribed or anything but I'd like to ask this about mutt: I recently built mutt for solaris 8 (I'm a user not root), and with the normal curses, it refused to display any color. I attempted to build ncurses but failed, so I built slang (that an extensible programming language drop in turns out to be used for its terminal emulation in mutt and aalib must depress the original authors). Now I recompiled mutt with slang support, and the color works fairly well. However, I'm using an xterm (like) display [actually aterm] and every bright color is bold, which is annoying. That wouldn't be a problem except that every time I quit mutt, the last messages (14 messages saved, 0 deleted or mailbox unchanged, whatever) is printed in bold of the default fg color. I can only reset this with a ls --color, not a reset. What can I change in Muttrc to fix this. I've tried making mono bold be something specific, and I've played with all of the color commands. additionally, Muttrc is odd because it doesn't like the `default' color, claiming that it is not a valid color. This is mutt-1.2.5i thanks. -daniel

Save-hook inside a folder-hook
I have the following that doesn't work: folder-hook "IN.mutt" 'save-hook * =mutt' When I'm reading "IN.mutt" and go to save a message, "IN.mutt" keeps coming up as the default for that folder. Any ideas? Tia.. -- -duke Calgary, Alberta, Canada

spell checking
Hello I am just getting my feet wet with mutt and trying it out to see if it will be my email client of choice. So far I really like the speed of mutt. I have a real basic question. How does one incoporate a spell checker with mutt? Does it use ispell. If you can use a spell checker how does one activate it. Thanks for all help ahead of time. Bob

vim and mutt question
Hi All, I have an autocommand for temporary mutt files. I want to move the cursor down 6 positions automatically when I start a new mail (this would move the cursor right under the headers (i use edit headers). But i can't seem to figure out how to do this from a vimrc file... Any help? TIA -- Viktor

You could try setting the mutt 'editor' variable to something like /usr/local/bin/vim +6j This shall affect editing old messages, too, but it will probably do what you want.
