Using reply-hooks is a better solution, but unfortunately, they are executed too late in the composition workflow to change the Bcc header (http://mutt.org/doc/manual/#compose-flow). Some of my addresses have more than one recipient, so the correct Bcc header is crucial. Defining a message-hook works in most cases (if I open/view a message before replying to it), but sometimes I want to reply to a message right from the index after starting mutt. Do you have any suggestion on how to change the Bcc header automatically? Thanks, Jan signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I had the exact same problems and did a bit of an over-engineering approach: my profiles are defined in a yaml file and a python script generates the necessary (neo)mutt rc files. The details, as well as the python script are available here: https://spacepanda.se/neomutt-pt7.html Toodles, Robert

Thank you! This is exactly what I needed.

Re: Handling multiple From addresses
What I did for this was select a few esc-capital hotkey combos and define macros like this in my muttrc: macro generic \eF ":source ~/.mutt/headers.f...\r" macro generic \eH ":source ~/.mutt/headers.h...\r" And so on. (I replaced the actual filenames with "...") Each .mutt/headers... file looks somewhat like this: -- unmy_hdr * my_hdr X-URL: ... my_hdr From: Ofer Inbar set status_format="-%r- %f: cos@somedomain ---[Msgs:%?M?%M/?%m%?n?New:%n?%?d? Del:%d?%?F?
