You don't need to write a script for that. Mutt will display the "real name" automatically for addresses in your alias list. Define aliases in your .muttrc as follows: alias Foo Foo Barand now incoming mails from foo...@bars.name will have "Foo Bar" in the origin field. If you insist on using an address list in some other format such as Thunderbird's, consider automatically converting the other format into mutt's. -- Please *no* private copies of mailing list or newsgroup messages.

Author's name in index from address book
I configured Thunderbird to override the name in the From: header with the name associated with that email address in my address book. I would like to do the same in Mutt. Is there any way to replace the author's name in Mutt's index view with a shell script instead of using the options of the index_format configuration option? Wim

Maybe a script calling mhonarc (though I haven't used for some time).

I must be missing something. Mutt saves temporary files to $TMPDIR or to /tmp if $TMPDIR is unset (TMPDIR is kinda standard http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap08.html#tag_08_03). Did you set your $TMPDIR to /tmp/mutt? Anyway, I cannot reproduce this behavior - I sent two identically named .pdf files, opened them in turn and both of them were saved to $TMPDIR before opening and handled by mutt in accordance with ~/.mailcap. What mutt version do you use? I tested it on both 1.5.21 and 1.5.24. -- Arkadiusz Drabczyk
