What causes the message "Tagging is not supported."? I'm getting it
when I try and tag messages in one particular directory. I can't see
anything wrong with permissions or anything and the messages open OK
in mutt.

I use postfix which, while it is a full-blown SMTP server, isn't
difficult to configure (well I managed it!). Postfix will queue
outgoing mail so its sendmail responds instantly and I never see any
delays from mutt.

solution for that is to run a mailserver on my desktop machine
(where I run mutt) and have my mail delivered by SMTP. That may or
may not be a practical solution for others.

script (run from ~/.forward) to do this.
It's designed so that simply adding an entry to a config file for a
mailing list does everthing that's required:-
Directs mailing list messages to a dedicated folder
Creates an alias for sending mail to the mailing list
Adds the list to 'subscribe' and 'list' in muttrc
Does various extras like removing [mailing list name] from the subject line

As per the subject is it possible for mutt to do something to an
E-Mail in its inbox without the user seeing/doing anything at all?
E.g. is there some sort of hook that can, for example, reply to or
delete an E-Mail from a specific address without any user interaction?

what do I need to change to get 1.6.1 to work the way that 1.5.24 used
to? With 1.5.24 the first line of .mailcap was used when you hit 'v'
in mutt.

here has being trying to tell me! :-)

Well I first actually tried it and saw no blank line.
I've now looked throught my archive (1845 mailboxes) and most of them,
saved with mutt, using S[ave], seem *not* to have a blank
then it doesn't matter too much.
Mutt itself *doesn't* put a blank line there, if you S[ave] or
C[opy] messages to a new mbox the messages have no blank lines
before the 'From '.
