Re: Some questions about trivial things

 1. How to go back to main mailbox, once I've done c to change to another folder?

Hit c to change folders, then enter ! as the folder (without the
quotes, just the exclamation point).  That's an alias to your spoolfile
(and  is your sent mail folder if you have one, and  is mbox)

Re: Vim colors?

2001-11-17 Thread Matt Spong

 Thanks for all the help everyone has given so far. I finally downloaded
 and installed vim, and set it up as the editor. I've been looking around
 for color config info...anyone have a favorite site, or a configuration
 file to share?

I've got my .vimrc up at http://forkbomb.net/stuff/vimrc

asking to move messages into mbox

2001-10-28 Thread Matt Spong

Hi

Is there a way to make mutt stop asking me if I'd like to move my read
messages into mbox when I switch from my inbox to another folder, but
still have it ask when I quit mutt?

documentation?

2001-10-25 Thread Matt Spong

Hi all

Is there any documentation for mutt 1.3.x floating around?  All the docs
I've found seem to be for 1.2.5...

Re: documentation?

2001-10-25 Thread Matt Spong

 The mutt 1.3.x distribution contains a manual for mutt 1.3.x.

*sigh*, so it does.  I looked and saw it said version 1.2.5 in manual.txt,
but I guess I looked in the wrong place.  Sorry.

Re: Colorizing Headers full width

2001-10-20 Thread Matt Spong

Well, Ricardo... if that *is* your real name...

 I'd like to make it colorize all the way until the end of the line on which
 the header terminates.
 
 Is there a trick?

If there is, I haven't found it.  I've tried to get it to do that as
well, and never managed to.  It seems to be a bug in mutt.

Re: Colorizing Headers full width

2001-10-20 Thread Matt Spong

 I reported this some time ago together with a patch (that messed things
 up at other places;). If you dare to try I send along another patch that
 might work better...

I don't know enough about mutt's internals or ncurses/slang to be able
to decipher your patch, but this problem only shows up when displaying
the message - in the index, for example, the background color continues
to the right edge of the terminal screen, even if the newline is right
after the text ends, halfway across the line.  The pager, I guess, uses
a different method to draw the screen.

Re: Blanks problem (was: mutt and screen: display problems)

2001-09-23 Thread Matt Spong

   OK, but default does not work with rxvt -bg white -fg black. So,
 Well, when I say that it doesn't, I mean that I don't get a black
 background. 

Maybe I'm missing something here, but when you start rxvt with 
-bg white, default will give you a white background... this is what
it's supposed to do.

Re: vim question

2001-09-18 Thread Matt Spong

 and (i can't resist)... one more quick vi / vim question.  is there a
 quick way to make the arrow keys work the same in insert mode and in
 command mode?  right now i get 'A','B','C' and 'D' instead.

:set nocp

This turns off strict vi compatibility and makes vim act much friendlier.

mutt and PGP/GPG

2001-09-17 Thread Matt Spong

Hi all

While we're on the subject of GPG, why is it that mutt's method of
signing messages seems to differ from that of every other mailer on the
planet?  It doesn't seem to recognize some signatures, either (for
example, those of Jean-Sebastien Morisset on this list) - the text of
the signature is simply included in the message rather than being run
the GPG for verification.

old messages in mbox

2001-09-15 Thread Matt Spong

Hi

First of all I'd just like to say that mutt rocks... I can't live
without it :)

However, I'm having a little problem...  It seems to be deleting messages 
from ~/mbox which are older than a week or so.  Is it possible to turn off 
this behavior?  I don't see anything in the documentation about it.

Thanks

 % Nope... been using mutt for 2 years now. :)
 
 Hokay, you're simply bubbly like I am :-)

Yep :)

 Nope; short and sweet, and nothing scary looking.

Hrm. :\

 % When I switch to a different mailbox or quit, it asks me if I want to
 % move messages to ~/mbox.
 
 And do you say yes or no?  

Depends... I usually say no for a day or two, since there's usually mail
that I've been putting off responding to (and if I move it to mbox I'll
forget about it), but once I've gone through all my mail I say yes.

thanks
Matt
