The whole concept of apps checking to see if the mailspool has new mail in it can/should be done in such a way so that multiple apps can do it and not squash each others data. Not that much can be done about it at this point, it seems so many apps use this current model. :/ Why do you need more than one app to check for new mail? Pick one that does what you want (play sounds, beep, animate something) and that should do all you need, no? Mutt already has a beep_new function you can use for an audible new mail warning. Indeed, hunting through the manual... Utilities like biff or frm or any other program which accesses the mailbox might cause Mutt to never detect new mail for that mailbox if they do not properly reset the access time. Backup tools are another common reason for updated access times. [sec 3.11] So it may be OK to use multiple utilities as long as they behave. -- John Lennon:--v [Simon White. vim/mutt/Linux.

Re: Hook question
I think I have the solution: send-hook '~t .*' 'my_hdr From: Jerome De Greef [EMAIL PROTECTED]' send-hook !'~t .*' 'my_hdr From: Jerome De Greef[EMAIL PROTECTED]' The first hook is used whenever I hit 'r' and there is a 'To:' line followed by any address. The second hook is used when I hit 'F' (newsgroup followup). It matches any 'To:' line where the address is not anything... thus matching no 'To:' line at all. It's maybe a 'dirty trick' but it does it ;) Jerome * Andre Berger ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: * Jerome De Greef [EMAIL PROTECTED], 2002-03-14 13:14 -0500: * Andre Berger ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: * Jerome De Greef [EMAIL PROTECTED], 2002-03-14 09:13 -0500: Hi, I use the nntp patch from vvv.

It could have been done using ~h and searching for Newsgroups: in the header but send-hook doesn't allow to use ~h. Yeah that would make things really easy.

unable to connect to mail server from mutt
Hi, I am using mutt to connect to the mail server to fetch mails. I need to access a pop mail account. When I configure Netscape to do it, I am able to get through to the server and access the mails. However, I am unable to connect to the same server (from the same machine on where I am able to access it thro Netscape) through mutt. :-( (on running mutt and hitting 'c' , it asked for 'Open Mailbox' ) I tried to connect to the server with the command: pop://a.b.c.d where a.b.c.d is the ip address of the mail server when I telnet to port 101 of a.b.c.d, there is a reply saying 'OK' I have configured mutt with --enable-pop option. any help would be great. thanks in advance, regards, Kanagesh

moving complete threads (was Re: patches (colored questions, conditional tag-prefix))
* Prahlad Vaidyanathan [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2001-11-28 09:44:54 +0530]: On Sat, 17 Nov 2001 christophe [EMAIL PROTECTED] spewed into the ether: [-- snip --] I should add, this works also for push commands (and it seems to work for exec). I use the following in my .muttrc: folder-hook regex for all mailing list folders push \tag-pattern~d2w\nuntag-pattern~F|~D\ntag-prefix-condsave-message\n\n\ It moves all messages older than 2 weeks except flagged ones to an archive folder (I have other folder-hooks to set appropriate save-hooks). This is nearly what I would like to do except that I would like to keep thread together. ie I would like to move thread with all mails older than X days, read and not flagged. I want to setup a macro that does this : 1. Tag all messages older than, say, 2 weeks 2. Tag entire threads of those messages, even if some messages in that thread are newer than 2 weeks. 3. Delete/Save tagged messages. 1, and 3 seem possible, but 2 does not. So far I've been doing it manually, but as I subscribe to more and more lists it becomes increasingly tedious. Any solutions ? I hope yes. I've written a patch to achieve this. It is not well tested, but it seems to work, and I had no crash after applying it. It adds an new pattern ~a. I see only two possible uses of it, T~a\n and ^T! ~a\n. The first one tags all messages which are in threads containing any tagged message, the second one untags all messages which are in threads containing any untagged messages. I should add that ~a and !~a are not the same module not. The not applies to the tag status of the other messages in the thread. As always, use at YOUR OWN RISK. But I would be glad to hear if anybody considers this patch usefull, or can give me any feedback. The above push command will soon be, but I have to test a bit before using it :) push \tag-pattern~d2w\nuntag-pattern~N|~O|~F|~D\nuntag-pattern!~a\ntag-prefix-condsave-message\n\n\ PS: Sorry for raking up _old_ threads, but I just desperately need this one to work !

unable to send mail from mutt...
Hi, I'm using mutt to connect to a mail server. I can access my mail box and receive all mails, but when I try to send a mail, I am not able to. I guess mutt uses sendmail in the local system to SEND mails and POP to access mails from the server (am I right??) . I am able to connect to the server successfully and access all my mails. Initially, mutt was assuming the FROM address as [EMAIL PROTECTED] (but it should have been [EMAIL PROTECTED] ).

I guess mutt uses sendmail in the local system to SEND mails and POP to access mails from the server (am I right??) . I am able to connect to the server successfully and access all my mails. Initially, mutt was assuming the FROM address as [EMAIL PROTECTED] (but it should have been [EMAIL PROTECTED] ). I added hclinfinet.com to the from field of .muttrc, but that hasn't helped sending a mail out of my system. any help would be great. thanks in advance. regards, kanagesh.

That simplifies matters immensely. Does that mean you can always tell what the list address is? No, of course not. You check for header lines with post in them, and pull addresses. If there aren't any, you pop up the From: as a default, and let the user userride it like any other prompted option. This will miss a lot of lists. So only require the user to hint those in the config file, not ALL of them. Why do people assume any solution that doesn't work 100% of the time is a bad solution?

Uh huh. And we're discussing making Mutt handle that without you having to put two statements in the config file for every list you're on, just for the ones that are too hard to figure out programmatically. You only need one statement in the config file per list. 'subscribe' and 'lists' are two different but related commands. One is for lists you are subscribed to, the other is for lists you may see mail from/send mail to but are not actually subscribed to. Which of the two you use to tell mutt about a list determines how things like the MFT header are generated. (If you're subscribed, you don't want your address in MFT. If you're not subscribed, you do want your address in MFT.) Note that this distinction is another piece that would be missed if we just relied on the list headers. Also, FWIW, it isn't even one statement per list. You can put as many lists as you want on one line, and the entries themselves are patterns matched against the address, so one entry can match multiple lists if you write it that way. I maintain that a sufficient percentage of them are NOT too hard to figure out that it's worth doing. If you want to see this, you probably need to produce a patch that does it in a quality way.

Attachments and GnuPG - sometimes wrong charset
Hi! I found the following problem: If I write an e-mail (charset iso-8859-1), I have no problems signing the mail with gnupg. If I attach another mail (message/rfc822, iso-8859-1) and sign it, 8bit characters get lost in the attachment. This is reproducable if I launch mutt in an utf8 xterm. A xterm with iso-8859-1 or 15 doesn't lead to such problems. It seems that gnupg gets confused with charsets and locales. Does anybody knows a workaround for this problem?

That's not important for mutt, but I would rather just have one compiler to maintain and not multiple ones. Mutt is only package I have had a problem with so far (openssl, openssh, tcp wrappers, qpopper and bind 9, to name a few, have compiled okay). I did have to fix some code to stop using sys_errlist, but I have otherwise had no hitches. I am sure it is a gcc thing, but figured it was worth the post anyway. Thanks for the response.

Re: orange editor
You may need to use vim, not vi. I tried to emulate your problem but couldn't. Have you got set editor=vim -c 'set tw=72 et' '+/^$' in your .muttrc. HTH Nick

sending gnupg keys to keyserver
I'm having some trouble sending my public keys to the keyserver that I've setup in my ~/.gnupg/options (keyserver search.keyserver.net). I can download keys without too much trouble, but I get this error when I try to upload gpg --send-keys [EMAIL PROTECTED] gpg: error sending to 'search.keyserver.net': eof Any ideas on what I'm doing wrongly, or is it the keyserver?

color 'default'
Where does 'default' come from, as whether it gets recognized or not? I ended up installing ncurses into my home directory and mutt built perfectly. I reported this back the server admin and she said that after looking into it, ncurses on the server was indeed screwed. She said she reinstalled it, and when I tried building 1.3.28 just to try the server ncurses, it built fine, and mutt -v reports ncurses 5.2, but default is not recognized when it starts up. In the version I built from ncurses from my home dir, no problem. Thanks. -Ken

GPG revisited
Hi all, Someone gave me a macro a while back to check every message for PGP-ness. This works ok for local folders, but for IMAP it's really s-l-o-w... Plus after leaving a message and going back to the index, it seems mutt has forgotten about the PGP-ness of other messages (i.e. I either need to hit Esc-P or re-execute the macro). This really isn't ideal. What I'd like to know is if there is a way to tell mutt when I hit enter to enter a message, do an Esc-P first. This way, the delay is much smaller and virtually unnoticable. Really what I'd like is for mutt to do this automatically... If there have been any recent developments in mutt that obviate the need to do something like this, I'd like to know about those too. ;-) Thanks -- Derek Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] - I prefer mail encrypted with PGP/GPG!

unsubscribing
I have just subscribed using a new email address but can't get the old address unsubscribed, which is still forwarded to me, so I get two copies of each msg. I've tried changing the 'From:' line in mutt to the old subscription address but the mailing list manager won't accept it. What can I do? -- John

Running stuff on windows (sans install script)
Because windows doesn't have an install script that works properly, you may be wondering how to get stuff to work without it. This is easily done with environmental variables. Set BTTC_ROOT_DIR to the root dir of whichever source you are using. If you have a CVS checkout, set it to the root of that. If you have a downloaded copy, set it to where the files were unzipped. This will allow you to run the bmed, ved, and bttc scripts in the bin directory. (AS a sidenote, I heard that windows has a problem with the scripts not having a .py ending. Any solutions, anyone? I'll do a little research myself.) If you want to run the scripts individually, you'll need to set PYTHONPATH to the lib directory of whatever you are using. This will let you run a script like lib/battlemech/design.py. If anyone has anything to add to this, let me know. Jonathan

If you care to read the manfile; Disposal Options -a, --all (Keyword: fetchall) Retrieve both old (seen) and new mes sages from the mailserver. The default is to fetch only messages the server has not marked seen. Under POP3, this option also forces the use of RETR rather than TOP.
