Here's what I have in my muttrc that currently works with my HP Office Jet 610: [settings for the printer in .muttrc] Hello Ken, what about the program muttprint. It prints pretty mails and you can also use it for other mailprograms and newsreaders. You can find it at freshmeat.net. I don't remember the homepage. There's also a Debian package, but it is version 0.60 and the current version is 0.61 which is much better and have a few settings more, especially for newsreaders like slrn.

How can I disable this? Hello Andreas, search for Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] here at mutt-users. I had the same problem and that was the answer. But it was a patch and until now I didn't had the time to patch my mutt. You can test it, because it was a patch for BSD. I don't know, if it works for Linux, but this was the only answer for my question, so I think there's no other way to solve that problem.

Howdy, Simply done with the encrypt-to option for gnupg.
