Setting folder_format for attachments only

2002-05-24 Thread Andre Bonhote

Hi there!

It happens that I have to attach several files to a mail, some of which
have quite long filenames. In order to read the filenames wholly, I
often have to enlarge my Xterm, and this is not what I want.

Now, I'd like to either have the possibility to scroll to the left and
right side in the folder view (would be nice anyway), or to set a
folder_format for directories different to ~/Mail/. I tried this and
several variants of it:

folder-hook !.*Mail.* 'set folder_format=%3C %t %N %8s %f'

It looks like it's matching for ALL folders, including ~/Mail/. Does
anybody know how to handle this?

I am using Mutt 1.3.99i (2002-05-02)

TIA  HAND

André

Alas! Andy Saxena spake thus:
 Hmmm... I have seen this said a few times, however I don't see an =3D
 sign in front of the mail folders. I use the mbox format; and $folder is
 set to ~/Mail.

=3D is just shorthand for $folder; without =3D, your mboxes could be put
anywhere; using =3D makes all your mboxes stay in the $folder.

sort incoming mail to different folders

2002-05-24 Thread Romano B. Fonbuena

is it possible for mutt to have the ability
of sorting incoming messages from remote POP3 servers
into different folders, sort of like a builtin procmail
for those who uses mutt's fetch-mail?

No, you want to use fetchmail+procmail to do this.

 sorry for bothering, but how about sending read mail

 i'm still testing *-hooks and other settings which might
 do the trick without the need for fetchmail, anyway
 thanks for taking the time to reply. :)

You can use mbox-hook's to move _all_ read mail from one folder into
another folder.  You can't move messags to different folders from the
same incoming mailbox.

No, you should use Fetchmail and Maildrop for this.

No. You need to use getmail and maildrop for this.

Okay, okay, I'm just being a smart-ass. You need a scriptable pop client
and a user-side mail filtering program (as opposed to a server-side mail
filter).

Commonly recommended pop clients:
- fetchmail
- getmail

Commonly-recommended user-side mail filter programs:
- procmail
- maildrop

and I've heard of at least one more in each category, but I don't recall
their names.

This should be on a FAQ.

(1) I could tell you - but then I'd have to kill you.
(2) you need OUTLOOK EXPRESS!
(3) reinstall windows.

an old one, eh?  so - how was it solved then?
do you mind giving a more detailed description?

then you drop the hook

 I have mutt color settings that work just fine in console mode.
 But when I use mutt from X/gnome, it's all just green on black

this does not sem to be a mutt problem, right?
it's probably your terminal.  so don't
fix mutt - fix the terminal!

use rxvt or xterm-color - and
dont reverse bg with fg color!

 If you are good at sed, you can use
 sed to filter your files while in vi:
 :1,$ ! sed s/Find/Replace/

this is *so* much better than
 :%s/Find/Replace/
*snort*

 If you mess up, u undoes any number
 of edits. [Cntrl]R undoes the undos.

will work for elvis and vim only.
won't work when vi is nvi.

 If you don't use vi, you are
 missing 1/2 the benefit of linux!

get the spelling right:
elvis or vim.  not vi!

actually, I already have that.  however, that won't solve my problem,
since what I have is an IMAP mailbox that many users can save messages
too...  often, the same message.  while I think some magic with formail
can remove dups, I like the idea of it happening when I look at the
mailbox...
