Re: Problem printing doc-attachments
On Sep 18, Gary Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I upgraded to Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 some months ago and had a similar problem. I fixed it by changing that line to this: application/msword; mutt_rem_bgrun openoffice.org-2.1 -view %s I need the mutt_rem_bgrun command because I run mutt on a Solaris machine and run viewers for MS attachments remotely on the Linux box. In your case, this might work: application/msword; ooffice -view %s I don't know if that will help, but it's something to try. Thanks for the response. I tried that openoffice startup paramater but it had no effect on this problem. Any suggestions still welcome. I put the same question to the Ubuntu and Openoffice forums, if a solution comes up I'll report here. Holger
Re: How to save copy of resent message?
On Jun 5, John P Verel [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I note that if I resend a message from, say, my outbox by doing ESC e to open it, edit and send the new message, no copy of the newly edited and sent message is placed in my outbox. Is there a way to change this behavior? Since 1.3.28 resend-message honors $record and fcc settings. You should upgrade to 1.4.
Re: delete inside pager
On Apr 13, Flavien [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: [The one above does not work. I suppose you thought : macro pager 'd' 'delete-messagenext-unread' This one has a problem. Test case : N Subject: Foo N Subject: Bar N Subject: Gee Your press Enter to read Foo, then you press D. What happens ? delete-message deletes Foo and points the pager to Bar. Then the next-unread points to Gee. In fact, Bar is no more new, but you've not read it ! :-( Another suggestion ? You need to set/unset $resolve, which determines if mutt moves to the next entry or not after an action like delete. Something like: macro pager d :set noresolveenterdelete-messagenext-unread \ :set resolveenter Holger

The typo in the manual is of course a bad thing, and it should be corrected. However, when messing with macros and keybindings it is always a good idea also to check the help screens (with '?'), to get the names of all available functions. In the compose menu the help screen says: e edit-message edit the message Regards, Holger

AFAIK Mutt can't do this itself, but if you could always create some sort of template letter with your favorite editor (I use vim) and then A better idea is to use mutt's handy resend-message function (bound to Esc-e by default), which lets you use any msg (including the headers) as a template for new messages.

Re: Multiple postponed messages
On Feb 8, David Clarke wrote: I'm just wondering if it's possible to have multiple postponed messages, as whenever I try to compose a new message, it loads the previously postponed message. Sure it is posible to have multiple postponed msgs. You must have the quadoption 'postpone' set to yes (the default is ask-yes) as it loads the postponed msg automatically. Change it to another value. I prefer to have it set to 'no'. The default key for recalling postponed msgs is 'R'. Holger

Re: send-hook ~t and autoedit
On Jan 8, Hanspeter Roth wrote: It seems to me send-hook ~t is not working with autoedit and edit_headers set. This is a bug, isn't it? Why should it be considered a bug? Autoedit per definition skips the send-menu, and as the recipient is still unknown when you enter the editor, send-hooks naturally cannot work. So if you want to use send-hooks, you have to unset autoedit, period. Sometimes you just can't have it both ways, and have to choose. Holger
Re: send-hook ~t and autoedit
On Jan 8, Hanspeter Roth wrote: Why not reevaluate the send-hooks after the editing session and after changing the recipient in the compose menu? For instance, send-hooks can be used to insert different signatures matching certain addresses (inserting sigs in different languages, etc.). Re-evaluating the send-hook at exit means deleting that sig and inserting another - a rather complex operation... Holger

Re: automatically prepend the '=' (default location) to mailbox input
On Aug 29, Eric Smith wrote: How can I configure mutt to implicitly prepend the '=' or '+' to a user specified mailbox like in change-folder. I can remap the 'c' command for example to print the '=' for me so then I only need enter the folder name but this clobbers the suggested folder name - which is frequently useful. One easy way to do get rid of the need for the prefixes '=' or '+' is to use a shell alias which starts mutt in ~/Mail ('cd Mail;mutt;cd'). -- Holger Lillqvist
Re: About quoting text, about emacs.
On Jul 25, David Ellement wrote: However, mutt doesn't keep track of the tag order, and for mbox folders at least, the reply goes to the first message in the folder. Actually, the reply goes to the senders of _all_ the tagged messages. With edit-headers this is no big problem, though. The order of the tagged and quoted messages is affected by the sort mailbox commands; I've found reverse-threads useful for this purpose. Holger
