How does mutt send mail?
I'm trying to discover why mutt seems to take so much longer to send an email after I moved my mail server to a different machine, but I can't work out how mutt interacts with sendmail... Looking through the mutt executable, I can't see any references to sendmail. My .muttrc does not contain any active references to sendmail, although a few are commented out. So, it's a mystery to me how mutt invokes sendmail. Can anyone explain it? I am using an old version of mutt under OS/2, but I would expect the normal process for sending mail to be the same... -- John

It calls it as most programs do, via /path/to/sendmail (options) I don't know what the default options are, but you can force them in .muttrc with set sendmail=/usr/lib/sendmail -oi -oem Or whatever else you want. -- [Simon White. vim/mutt.

Depending on the configuration of the machine, it might try to look up the destination address to check that it exists, before accepting the mail. If the machine is on an intermittent (e.g. dialup) internet link, or the connection is slow, it might take longer to do this. I suspect it is a DNS lookup problem, but would like to confirm this before investigating further. I have an ADSL connection to the Internet which is reliable, so I'm not really sure why I should have a problem at all. Maybe the resolver isn't set up properly...

ailasing mailboxes
Is it possible to alias a mailbox? I often need to save messages to a remote IMAP box... example... my mail is all stored in imaps://dan@localhost/... once in a while, I need to save a message to imaps://user@localhost/path/to/box typing it manually every time is no fun... but what other options do I have? do I need to write macros for saving a message, saving all tagged messages, changing to that folder, etc? is there no way to magically make mbx always expand to imaps://... in every prompt? I'm not asking for much, am I? *grin* -- Dan Boger [EMAIL PROTECTED] msg27922/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Well, technically it's not really a copy if the message has been changed; it's a different message. At the very least, it will wreak havoc with digital signatures. However, you might try playing with a wrapper script around your MTA, which you'll call from $sendmail, which catches the message and sends the unmodified form on with the To: and Cc: headers and then sends a modified form on with the Bcc: header. % % % Regards, % % Tobias Kirchhofer HTH HAND :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg! msg27925/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

No, as fcc is a string containing the path to a mailbox, it's not really possible (without any patch). If you have procmail, why not set a BCC to a local address, strip it of save to your location? Btw, there may also be other 'mutations' of those addresses. Cheers, Rocco. msg27928/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
