What you now want to use is a folder hook:

Re: Scheduling deferred sending of emails

2023-07-29 Thread Christopher Zimmermann
I'm pretty sure this feature is only implemented in the MUA, not the 
MTA. Therefore if the MUA is offline at the time of the scheduled 
dispatch, the mail will be delayed longer.


In a unix environment you could accomplish such a task using a cronjob 
via at(1).

Thanks, this sounds nice, but it doesn't work for me. attachment-view 
will also fetch the whole message.


don't fetch attachments from imap by default

2022-11-14 Thread Christopher Zimmermann

Hi,

mostly I'm only interested in the message text body, not possibly large 
attachments. Is it possible to configure mutt to not fetch the whole 
message, but only the text part, so that opening multi-megabyte messages 
gets faster and using less bandwidth ?

Re: Disabling start and stop keys

I have a script that fires up mutt in an xfce4-terminal window.  In my ksh

xfce4-terminal  -e /usr/local/bin/mutt &

I find that the stop/start characters remain active.  I have tried adding
multiple -e options to xfce4-terminal to disable the chars before running
mutt, but with no luck.

Is there some method to disable these keys in .muttrc which is processed
inside the running terminal?  I've looked for a something that will execute
a command in the current shell (rather than a sub-shell) but see nothing.

I'm guessing that this is a simple problem, and I'm missing the forest
for the trees.


There is no option in .muttrc, but here's what I do for st:

st -t mutt -e sh -c 'stty dsusp undef ; exec mutt'

Sort Threads by newest Date

2021-02-05 Thread Christopher Zimmermann



Hi,

when displaying a mailbox index in threaded view, the different threads 
are sorted by the date of their oldest message. Is there a way to sort 
them by their newest message?

Re: Going GUI...er

2020-04-04 Thread Christopher Zimmermann
I used sylpheed and claws-mail until recently when I switched to mutt. What 
annoyed me most is that claws mail crashed occasionally and messed up 
configuration and folder settings after the crash. For html mails which don't 
render readable in text I have a binding to open them in an already running 
firefox instance. This sucks only a little. Certainly less than claws-mail's 
performance and stability

Don't open next message after delete in pager

2020-03-17 Thread Christopher Zimmermann

Hi,

after delete/move/mark_unread in the pager mutt will open the next 
message. Is it possible to configure it to instead return to the index?



Thanks,
Christopher
