Mailing list and starting a new message

Is there a way to do this? well the index of the list has nothing to do with the 'list' or 'subscribe' commands; you can have a mail that's in a subscribed list in any folder. if you sort your lists into diffrent folders (as many of us do) you could possibly make a 'folder-hook' to create a macro to compose to the current list. No idea, but the workaround I usually use is to edit the message with headers (E instead of e) and remove the In-Reply-To: header. or just create an alias for the list and send mail directly to the list : w -- GPG Public Key: http://infinitejazz.net/will/pgp/

patches (colored questions, conditional tag-prefix)
Hallo,
Does anybody know if there are any patches to color mutt's questions
and to make tag-prefix conditional, i.e. doing nothing if there are
no tagged messages?
I should have asked first, but after not finding such patches, I tried
to write them.
They seem to work, but I don't know if they are really usable.
The first one let's you color questions, for example:
color question brightwhite default
It contains no docu, and looks strange when you don't use the same
background as with normal. It also looks strange, for example when
you change mailboxes, the mailboxname changes its color when changing
this name. But if there is anybody interessted, I would try to solve
these and add some docu (and an entry to the patches list).
The second one adds a new command tag-prefix-cond. It should behave
exactly the same as tag-prefix, with one difference. If there are no
tagged messages, it will empty the ungetch-buffer, this seems to
reliably stop/abort every macro. It's a hack, but it seems to work.
Any comments appreciated.
The patches were created from the freebsd mutt-devel port 1.3.23.2
If you call me clueless after looking at the patches, you are right :-)

[no subject]
The header info in there plain as day. I guess when you terminate the editor, mutt must move the 'header' content from the editor's temp file into the 'header' and then leave the body as the text attachment. This, of course, being the only thing operated upon by the 'F' option. Anyway, it appears I'm at an impasse. Anyone out there have any ideas?

At this point I'd probably ensure that edit_headers is turned on so that you get the whole shebang and use sed (or awk) to capture the subject line and spit out a cc: line (you can just tack that onto the headers as an additional line; mutt will handle it) and then dive into your editor as usual.

Re: Mutt an multiple mailboxes
Hi, Check for 'mbox-hook's in the Manual. pv. On Thu, 15 Nov 2001 Markus [EMAIL PROTECTED] spoke thusly: Hi! I've a wish how mutt should handle my mails and I don't know how to realize this. I'm subscribed in several mailinglists and so my mbox grow's up. One solution is to use procmail - but now my wish: I want to get *every* new mail into /var/spool/mail/lordbyte. So this does my MTA. Now I want to start mutt and read all my new eMails an set flags like read to my mails. Now - when I quit mutt, I want the mails to be sorted in mailfolders. One idea was to define my mbox to smth. like | formail -s procmail \ /var/spool/mail/lordbyte. But this doesn't work. A second Idea was to define a macro wich sould do this job, but if I move mails with procmail mutt looses the flags. So - is in mutt any possibility to sort mails automatically? (I know save-hooks - but then I have to push s return for every mail. Thanks!

I use PuTTY most of the time to read my mail, because I'm sitting in front of m$windows. Colors are working perfectly here, try setting TERM=xterm-color.

Vim colors?

Re: [SLE] unable to post to AOL
No, most AOL portals (in North America, at least) are set up to prevent linux logins. There have been trial version of Netscape which were allowed access to AOL mail servers for a time, but I have seen no NG access allowed except by the AOL Windows software (or via google). - Original Message - From: Oliver Ob [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Lx Mutt [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Lx Suse E [EMAIL PROTECTED]; MESSERSCHMIDT ME 209 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 16, 2001 3:08 AM Subject: [SLE] unable to post to AOL Right a short question, as I am not using AOL but want Walter to be able to use Netscape with it: What are the servers? pop3.aol.com and smtp.aol.com do not seem to work.
