mutt/vim compose-new-mail macro

2002-08-26 Thread Russell Hoover

When I am in mutt and I press 'm' to compose a new mail, and I'm then
dropped into my editor (vim), I'd like to have it so that I'll always
be automatically already in vim's insert mode.

Right now, once mutt puts me into vim after I press 'm',
and I am in vim's 'normal mode' ready to compose a new mail,
I can invoke vim's 'O' command (open a new line above the
cursor and put the editor into insert mode) to get exactly
what I want -- insert mode plus the new line.

What I'd like to do is put the 'O' command into a mutt macro,
and I've forgotten how I'd do it.

I already have this:

# Start cursor at line 9 (with edit_hdrs set) when composing new mails ('m'):
macro index   m:set editor='vim +9'^M_A  compose a new mail message
macro pager   m:set editor='vim +9'^M_A  compose a new mail message

(Earlier in my .muttrc I bound _A' to (send a) mail, ('m' by default), so
that 'm' could be the key for the macro.)

How do I put vim's 'O' command into a this macro so that it does what
I want?

Delete mailbox over imaps

2002-08-26 Thread Dan Boger

When in the folder browser, connected via imaps, I find that I cannot
delete folders.  Mutt gives the error: Delete is only supported for
IMAP.  Is this the expected behaviour?  I'd think that imaps should
work just as imap, only over ssl :)

From the shell prompt, you could do this:

vim +9 -c normal O -c startinsert

You may want to search for a pattern rather than use a line number in
case the number of header lines ever changes:

vim +/^$ -c normal O -c startinsert

Now the tricky part is quoting this correctly for use in a macro.  This
worked when I tried it, without the ^M_A:

macro index m :set editor='vim +9 -c \normal O\ -c startinsert'^M_A  compose 
a new mail message

HTH,

Alas! Russell Hoover spake thus:

Just set your editor to be '/usr/bin/vi +O' and it will automatically
do whatever the O key does when vim launches.

You can use procmail to filter the spamassasin'ated mails to /dev/null,
too.

I would never do that.  Sometimes Spamassassin catches real mail as

Migrating from MH to mutt (helpful muttrc)

2002-08-26 Thread Adam Fields

I've posted my .muttrc, which has a bunch of MH-like keybindings (the
ones I use most). If you're switching over from MH, you might find
that this helps ease the transition.

Enjoy!

it's been my experience that the latest SA (v2.31) is much better at 
distinguishing real mail from spam than earlier version. And v2.40 is due

MH folders

2002-08-26 Thread Michael Herman

I am trying Mutt as a replacement for my current MUA.  So far, I'm
very happy with it but have run into one small challenge.  

My old MUA uses MH format for the folders and I have lots of folders.
I have put .xmhcache into each folder so I can read them with Mutt.  I
use procmail to sort my mail into various folders; work e-mail into my
work folder, mutt-user e-mails in my mutt folder, etc.  I have defined
my different folders as mailboxes within my .muttrc.  

The problem is that Mutt doesn't seem to know when there are new
e-mails in these folders.  Is there anything I can do?

Thanks.

Sounds like a list for me.  I have a newbie question, and yes, I've looked
on google and the manual (though I probably missed something).  I'm new to
mutt and I'm trying to get mailing list support to work.  I put the
'subscribe mutt-users' in my .muttrc and these messages are flagged L
correctly, but for some reason when I try to save them it prompts me to save
them by the author's address, and not mutt-users.  No, I don't have the
save_address option turned on.  

This works for some other lists that I'm on...the key difference is they
have an X-list: header and also set the Reply-To: header to the list
address.  Anyone on this list getting it to automatically want to save in
mutt-users?

Thanks in advance for answering my (likely dumb) question.

Steve
