Re: Mutt problem, probably with procmail

There is a maximum mailbox size setting somewhere in /etc/postfix/main.cf. I have this mailbox_size_limit = 10240 I had changed it to this number from the original value (5120). It drove me nuts because my mailbox size went over 100mb at exactly the same time I had upgraded (or was it changed) my distro. :( ymmv, hth, Sharukh. -- Dr. Sharukh K R Pavri.

I have the impression that they require you to be online to work. Do they still work if you dial up, run fetchmail and hang off immediately via scripts? Take a look at mailfilter.sourceforge.net. It can be called from within fetchmail and best of all, it deletes spam *on the server* so you don't need to download it at all. I had it set up and working in less than 15 mins.

mutt not saving sent mail
Hi !! I am using 1.3.27 with a .muttrc that I got from Roland Rosenfeld's page with, by now, quite a few modifications. I had previously got the sample muttrc file for 1.2.x and now I am using the sample file for 1.3.x. I used my 1.3.27 for a few days w/ the old muttrc (for 1.2.5) till I was satisfied w/ the changes I made in the new muttrc. The problem I am experiencing is that previously when I sent a message, mutt would ask me if I wanted to save a copy of the message, but I seem to have lost this function w/ my new mutt muttrc. set copy=ask-no is present in both (the old and new) rc files. What am I missing ? I need to keep a copy of the message mainly because I have to use a mighty flaky smtp server that supports pop before smtp and the *technical* contacts seem to think that I am getting a relaying denied mesage because I am not using Outhouse Express !! thanx, Sharukh. -- Dr. Sharukh K.

errors while compiling mutt-1.3.27
Hi, I have been lurking on this list for quite some time. I am at present using mutt 1.3.23i which I had built from the tarball. I have now downloaded the diff's for upgrading to 1.3.27. I put the diff's in the main mutt source directory and patched the source. I got a few errors while patching, something wrt the .po file with three hunks (of the same name) failing for each patch applied. I remember someone mentioning on the list that these were not *essential* and so I went ahead with ./configure which gave no errors. But, when I try make install I get the following errors: [root@farzaan mutt-1.3.27]# make install make: *** No rule to make target `PATCHES', needed by `patchlist.c'. Stop. - I can't find a patchlist.c anywhere on my pc. I am using a stock install of RedHAt 7.1. I'm afraid my knowledge of programming is zero (I am a doctor of medicine). So if some kind soul can please pull me out of this :-). I am on a dial-up line so I would prefer not to have to download the 1.3.27 source in toto. reagards, Sharukh. -- Dr. Sharukh K. R. Pavri Mumbai, India.
Re: Spam problem
If you are using pop3 check out mailfilter, you should find it on sourceforge. You have to specify the mails you do not want to recieve (using regexp's) and those mails will be deleted on the server before you download them to your machine. There is also an option to run it in test mode before you go fully *online* with it so you know which mails will be deleted. hth, regards, Sharukh.

I thinkt the problem lies with the $; I think it needs to be

In your situation, I think mutt tries to execute the .mutt_alias file,
and that is, of cours, not possible.
