The lbdbq program is used to query your database(s); the lbdb-fetchaddr program is used to extract addresses from your e-mail and put them into a database file. This file is just one of the many databases that lbdb can query. Some people configure their system to extract the addresses from all their received e-mail. I prefer to extract just those addresses I'm interested in, so I have the following macros defined in my muttrc: macro index A :unset wait_key\n|lbdb-fetchaddr\n:set wait_key\n add address to lbdb database macro pager A :unset wait_key\n|lbdb-fetchaddr\n:set wait_key\n add address to lbdb database Is there a site that explains how to use this tool in depth.

I did also read the lib/m_* files for the modules I wanted to use to better understand how it all worked, but I don't think that's normally necessary. I modified two of the modules, m_ldap and m_yppasswd, to match the way those databases are structured at my company, and wrote a module to access another address file format. You should find it pretty easy to write one to extract addresses from whatever file format your Palm Pilot exports. Just follow the examples in the lib directory.

Re: Mails are always tagged as old but unread
Hello again, I tried out nearly any combination of fetchmail, exim, procmail and getmail. And the result is: It's procmail. I don't know why, but NOT using procmail doesn't insert the Status tags in the header. I just could't figure out, what the problem is. When I use an empty procmailrc , everything is fine. Using just some of my recipies is fine also. But using my hole procmailrc doesn't work. Is anybody interested in reading it ? (154 lines) So i think I will just use dropmail. Does anybody know how to pipe the headers to lbdb-fetchaddr in dropmail ? That is the only reason I can't use it at the moment. Greetings Christoph

No matching mailcap entry...
Dear all, I am having trouble configuring mailcap to do anything at all. I am configuring Mutt 1.2.5i on Cygwin (see mutt -v output below), and it seems to run normally in other respects -- at any rate, I can read, send, and receive messages. When I run: mutt -F c:/cygwin/unixmail/users/tbaker/muttrc -f test-file Mutt correctly reads: 1) c:/cygwin/unixmail/users/tbaker/muttrc, which sources 2) c:/cygwin/unixmail/etc/Muttrc In _both_ muttrc and Muttrc (alternately), I have tested the following: set mailcap_path=c:/cygwin/unixmail/etc/mailcap set mailcap_path=/cygdrive/c/cygwin/unixmail/etc/mailcap set mailcap_path=/unixmail/etc/mailcap where c:/cygwin/unixmail/etc/mailcap consists of just one test line: application/msword; less %s Yet when I run mutt -F c:/cygwin/unixmail/users/tbaker/muttrc -f test-file and try to call up an attachment of Content-Type: application/msword, confirming that the type is application/msword, Mutt tells me No matching mailcap entry found.

Re: Mailbox was corrupted
Quoting David T-G (Tue Apr 9 13:05:39 CEST 2002) If you *really* want to send a message to mutt-users and have it happily appear in your compressed folder, have your fcc-save-hook write to '^' after applying Byrial's current_shortcut patch; the message will end up in the temp file, and upon exit mutt will see that and use the close-hook to put the temp file back in place as the real file. [BTW, I bet that even though your message to mutt-users shows up the message to which you're replying never shows up with an 'r', right?] Done that. Thx. You're probably right, there is only one r flag in thæt mailbox, and it's dated just before applying the compressed patch. % I did a backup of the full mail tree. Just in case ;) That's a good idea if you're delivering into that compressed folder. Mmm... It sounds like I'm going to have a mutt-users and a mutt-users.gz in ~/mail/lists/inet-tech/mail, and in another 30 lists, which will break one advantage of the current setup, where I've direct access to the mail-bag of each list, while I'm reading new messages in that list... or perhaps I should forget about that patch grin and look forward to an ext3 filesystem for my mail tree. I was still thinking of a way to make it work my way, but you mention about another problem which I haven't thought of. Locks... I would be in a hurry if procmail receives mail for the list I'm currently reading, but this could be fixed stoping fetchmail as daemon, and running it manually (losing a great feature). -- Rafael C.

I've broken something
Hi there. Don't know if it's my config, or some broken patch, I suppose it's the first option, but when I enter my spool (by just nachine$ muttCR), read a message, and quit, the mailbox doesn't get updated, ie, If I reenter, the msg is still there (instead of being moved to +mbox), and marked as New... Has somebody seen a similar behaviour? Of course, I've the src package and patches handy, it's not lazyness, but if it is the config, then is where I'm a little lost. TIA -- Rafael C.

It depends on what your goal is. If you want gpg to automatically import keys if a key is missing, you only have to put your keyserver in ~/.gnupg/options. If you want to do it selectively on a per message basis, there're several ways. 1) You could write a macro piping the message to GnuPG (which will be ignored). Don't put enter at the end of the line but '0x'. You then would have to type the key id manually. 2) You could - the complicated way - try some script in conjunction with the display_filter variable to do what you want. Your choice. ;-) But I think you want to simply add the keyserver to your GnuPG config file. For use with pgp you (depending on the version used) have to set $pgp_getkeys_command in your .muttrc.

NFS problems
Hi, I just started another attempt to get mutt 1.5 working at one of my accounts. Without any sucess so far. Hopefully someone can help. The situation so far is that sending mail doesn't work because mutt does not show up again after returning from the editor (saving works). I try to summarize what I've tried so far. I linked dynamically (against glibc) and statically (against dietlibc) using S-Lang which seems to be okay. The binary is packed using upx which is okay, too. I've been playing around with fnctl(), flock() and also disabled usage of a dotlock program. Using mutt_dotlock from mutt 1.2.5 doesn't work either. No combination worked. I also tried to keep the mutt binary and $tmpdir on the same device avoiding usage of NFS mounts. No sucess, same result. I tried different editors, no sucess. And running mutt with '-d 4' just makes it telling me about its color configuration. I'm completely helpless since exactly the same binary does work on my machine (where it was built). But on the target, the process table just shows mutt running so that I have to kill it. I didn't try using '-H' yet, but if I can't compose mails from within mutt I can skip its usage. I got some pointers from the archives and from Google, which made me play with ./configure options and edit config.h but nothing helped. There are differences between both machines but the main one is that the remote machine uses NFS to import the home directories. Different kernels (2.2.x vs. 2.4.x) and glibcs (2.1.x vs. 2.2.x) used shouldn't matter with statically linked binaries. That's why I _guess_ I'm having trouble with NFS. If anyone can help...
