Re: Default folder for save attachements (resolved)

2002-06-07 Thread Oliver Fuchs

Many thanks for your very good (as always) suggestions and hints. I put
it this way:
In my .bash_profile I set an alias with: alias mutt=cd
~/download;mutt. It is a little bit unusual but for my requirements it
works out the best. 
Thank you again

If you haven't yet, be sure to check out some of the macros that other
folks have posted.  bol and eol to jump to the beginning and then
back to the end of line sound quite slick, and don't mess up your folder
searching when you're not looking only at your set list of mailboxes like
a pre-cd would.

Default folder for save attachements

2002-06-05 Thread Oliver Fuchs

Hi,
can I define a default folder for saving attachments (something like
/home/me/download) in the .muttrc?

Thank you in advance

I don't believe so; I just did a quick grep thru the manual and didn't
see anything on it, but that's where you'd find out about it.  The
closest you can probably come is changing to there before starting mutt
if you don't want to just feed your message to a script that does the cd
and then the munpack for you...

another alternative might be an alias for mutt like: alias mutt=cd
/my/dnld/dir;/path/to/mutt  might be a little easier then always
remembering to be in the correct directory when starting mutt.

setting the spoolfile variable to the folder you want to see when you
start up should do the trick, i.e.:

set spoolfile=homedir/IN.personale

I'd like to have the  folder folder I receive my personal mail ($HOME/IN.personale) to

What should I do?

Either set $MAIL to location of IN.personale or add to .muttrc:

set spoolfile=/home/yourlogin/IN.personale 

for more info see `man muttrc` .

I hope that helps.

 What should I do?
 
 Thanks
