Hopefully they'll have time to improve mine for you or come up with something totally different and more efficient. Thank you very much Jamie, your method is exactly what I wanted to do and now, mutt works like I want with maildir format. This sort of thing is easily achieved in a shell script, if your shell scripting knowledge is ok. my system of mailboxes was covered by a script for the directories MUTT and OUTBOX for the mbox format and so I adapted this script to the maildir format.

I come back in /home/user/ and now, if I press the key c I get : Chdir to: /home/user/ If I complete the path like : /home/user/Maildir/ I see the content of Maildir.

3 - what was the command you used to create the Maildirs with mb2md
mb2md -s ~/Mail -R
mb2md -m creates the directory ~/Maildir and sub-directory's {cur,new,tmp} -
all messages in /var/[spool]/mail/$user
are then seperated into files and placed in ~/Maildir/cur. This means that
~/Maildir is now your spoolfile.
I did not do mb2md -m because my /var/mail/$user is empty; my .procmailrc is
like this:
PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:.

Macelo == I encounter the same problem as you: If a file is already open with libreoffice I can not open the attachment Cher.docx (with mutt) I get the message of libreoffice: /home/user/.tmp/Cher.docx doesn't exist.

can't read attached file docx
Hello, I use Mutt 1.5.21 (from squeeze-backports) When I receive a message with a attached .docx file, sometime I can read it with libreoffice and sometime I get: No matching mailcap entry found. Viewing as text. For exemple this file is viewed with libreoffice: ARapport.docx [applica/vnd.openxm, base64, 1,3M] but this one is viewed as text: ASortie 1er mai 2012.docx [applica/vnd.openxm, base64, 17K] however if I save it I can read it correctly with libreoffice. I wonder if the problem is caused by the file name that contains spaces ? Is there a way to open it with libreoffice from mutt ?
