send-hooks, autoedit, etc
I'm using 1.2.5i and have a small dilemma. I'm trying to expand my send-hooks a bit so that when I send to a particular address, it'll modify my from: header.

new question about send-hooks
Hey all. Another quick question here. I have a send-hook set up so that when I send to a closed group, like mutt, my From: header is munged so that I get the '+folder' portion I subscribed with. Basically, this was done so that sendmail can sort my mail into the appropriate folders. Anyway, I noticed that when I do a group reply, it works. But if I am writing a new message, and address it after the message is composed (using 't' for the recipient, 's' for the subject, etc) it doesn't work. It doesn't work if you put the address in while composing, either (edit_hdrs is set). When, exactly are these hooks called? it seems there must be a way to make it work on any message, otherwise the send-hooks aren't much good. Is it possible that they are only getting called when the message is initiated rather than when it is sent? If so, how do I invoke a new mail message for a specific recipient? It seems like moving the hook invocation to some point after the final approval of a message is a project that could go eather way - a total breeze, or a complete cluster*#!. It all depends on what the designer was thinking at the time. Thanks all. Lou -- Louis LeBlanc Fully Funded Hobbyist, KeySlapper Extrordinaire :) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://acadia.ne.mediaone.netԿԬ
problems with send-hooks
hi list!
i got a simple problem for which i didn't find a solution in the man
pages.
i have four send-hooks defined to change my FROM-address and my sig
according to the recipient. my .muttrc looks like this:
[1] send-hook . my_hdr From: Andre Bonhote [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[2] send-hook ~C foo| ~C bar my_hdr From: AB other.mail@address
[3] send-hook ~f linux.ch `/usr/local/bin/gnarr -1 ~/.signature`
[4] send-hook ~f colt* `cp ~/.signature-serious ~/.signature`
[1] sets my default mail address
[2] sets my address to a different one, if i send mail to foo or bar.
[3] takes the output of gnarr {1} if the mail comes from my default mail
address
[4] takes my serious signature to send mail to foo and bar
ahm, in my opinion, this should work, but it does not. i found something
about the send-hook being processed after getting the initial list of
recipients here {2}, but i guess it should be processed on every mail i
write, right? hm ...
i hope you can help me there, or at least tell me to RTFM at which
point.
thanks in advance

send-hooks and save_name
Hi, I'm having trouble figuring out how to change the behavior of mutt's save_name feature. What I'm trying to do is to get mutt to do the save_name thing, except instead of having it save in =username, I want it to save in =work/username if any recipient's address contains "concordia.ca", and in =personal/username if no recipient's address contains "concordia.ca". I tried playing with changing the value of "folder" with a send-hook, but since it doesn't reset immediately after, it mungs up normal operations (since I still want "folder" to just be "~/mail/"). Is there a straightforward way to do such a thing? -Rich -- -- Rich Lafferty --- Sysadmin/Programmer, Instructional and Information Technology Services Concordia University, Montreal, QC (514) 848-7625 - [EMAIL PROTECTED] --

What I need is for "folder" to be set as I go to send, and to be reset to "~/Mail/" as soon as the message I'm sending is on its way. Hrm. This gets me very close: folder-hook . 'set folder=~/mail' send-hook concordia.ca 'set folder=~/mail/conu' send-hook !concordia.ca 'set folder=~/mail/personal' except that going from the send screen to the index doesn't trigger a folder-hook. (That'd be handy if it did, though, wishlist folks.) I'm beginning to think that there *is* no hook that takes place after a message is sent, so I can't think of any way to improve on the above. -Rich -- -- Rich Lafferty --- Sysadmin/Programmer, Instructional and Information Technology Services Concordia University, Montreal, QC (514) 848-7625 - [EMAIL PROTECTED] --

send-hooks a la Pine Roles.
Hi all! A co-worker stated the other day that the biggest feature that has kept him from switching from Pine to mutt is the fact that pine supports roles. From what I could gather, a role in pine basically allows you to set your From: email address depending on who the message you're replying to was _addressed_ to. Everytime I ask this question (off the list, in #mutt on IRC for example), people respond quickly by saying this can be done with a send-hook. To give a specific example: an email comes in to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I want to reply to it as [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of my personal address. The suggestions I've heard say to do something like: send-hook \ '~t [EMAIL PROTECTED]' \ 'my_hdr From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]' Which doesn't work, because the ~t criteria looks at the headers of the outgoing message I'm composing, rather than the original inbound message. And since I'm not composing the message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], this hook doesn't work. I'm wondering whether there's a good way to do this, or if it's even possible to use '~' variables but based on the headers from the original inbound message, and not from the outbound message. I'm assuming that this is a feature that is hardly ever used, since it's not been implemented. Would it be handy to anyone? -- Adrian Chung Software Engineer e-smith, Inc.

send-hooks not reset
Hi! I figured out how to set things up so that now I can properly reply to different people based on the original inbound email address. But I ran into a strange occurrence, which I'm not sure is my fault. I've set up mutt so that: set reverse_name set from="Adrian Chung [EMAIL PROTECTED]" alternates="(support|achung)@mycompany\.(com|net|org)" send-hook '~f support@mycompany' 'my_hdr From: company support [EMAIL PROTECTED]' send-hook '~f support@mycompany' 'set signature=~/.signature-support' This works properly, so that if email comes in addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and I hit reply, or reply-all, I get the proper outgoing From: header, and signature. The problem is, when I finish composing that message, and then attempt to compose a new message, by pressing 'c', and then typing in a random address, I still get the From: header and signature from above. Is this normal behaviour? Do I have to set a default send-hook to reset every parameter that I change? -- Adrian Chung Software Engineer e-smith, Inc.

Make sure you don't use $reverse_name with "my_hdr From". The two are incompatible. This is actually not strictly so, but if you ever use my_hdr From in a send-hook, you *must* also have "send-hook . unmy_hdr From" too... It's easier to just not mix the two, unless you really need to for some reason. If you want to change your default From address, it can be done with setting $from (in Mutt 1.2 and later).

OK, having gotten this far, how do you set it up? I experimented and came up with the following: # Set the various names by which I expect to get email.

That looks fine to me though. send-hook '~f [EMAIL PROTECTED]' "set signature=~/.sig.wyolp.web; \ my_hdr From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; \ my_hdr Reply-To: Charles Curley [EMAIL PROTECTED]" You may want to use my_hdr From: Charles Curley [EMAIL PROTECTED] ie. include your name in the From header as well.

No, we don't. The $reverse_name problem was that it wouldn't override a default set by my_hdr. The order for this stuff is: - Apply $from - Do $reverse_name - Do send-hooks (including 'my_hdr From:') If applying $from were to be moved after the send-hooks, then $from would have exactly the same problems as 'my_hdr From:'. Unless applying $reverse name were moved so it was again after that, but then the address it sets couldn't be matched against in send-hooks, and there would be no way to override it. So, if you want to set the From: address in a send-hook, you should still use 'my_hdr From:'. That this overrides $reverse_name is a feature, not a bug. For instance, I've occasionally used things like: send-hook . unmy_hdr From: send-hook '~f aarons@illiam' my_hdr From: Aaron Schrab [EMAIL PROTECTED] Because although I want the address [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be recognized as mine, I never want to use it for sending mail. -- Aaron Schrab [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.execpc.com/~aarons/ "If that makes any sense to you, you have a big problem." -- C.

I suppose the default send-hook then should have a "unmy_hdr From:" in order to get rid of the previously set "my_hdr From:" value and to let $from and $reverse_name do their thing? Would this affect "send-hook ~f" parsing, will the ~f pattern? I guess not if the default hook is first... Regards, Mikko -- // Mikko Hänninen, aka.

Question about $from and send-hooks
Hi, My turn to have a question. :-) Since I seem to answer questions about send-hooks, $reverse_name, my_hdr From: etc., I thought I should try to finally adapt my own .muttrc files to using "set from=" instead of "my_hdr From:". I ran into a problem though. I simply replaced each "my_hdr From:" command with the appropriate "set from=" and "set realname=" commands. But doing this doesn't seem to be equal to using "my_hdr From:" -- the from address does get changed, but the change does not take effect for the *current* new email. So in fact, the address gets changed for the next email, since the send-hook for that message isn't acting on that email either. I noticed this because I have a default send-hook that should set my address to [EMAIL PROTECTED], however one of my emails sent out had the address as [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- this is a valid address but one that I never want to use. So, should setting $from (and $realname) inside a send-hook actually change the from address or not for the current email? If it doesn't, then it can't be used as a full replacement for "my_hdr From:" (and then we again get the $reverse_name problem). I'm using Mutt 1.1.9. Regards, Mikko -- // Mikko Hänninen, aka.

Mutt is set to use thecivvie@(softhome.net|yifan.net...) and so if someone sends me and email using my Yifan.net account that Mutt replies using the Yifan.net as the from address instead of the softhome.net one.

Re: send-hooks - cruel
Eric Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In what way do they fail to work? Well, they do not set the headers or whatever, they just do not have any effect. The only un-commented send-hook in the huge muttrc file you sent was one that tries to set the subject header. I believe there is a limitation that the subject cannot be set by send-hooks. But any other header should be settable. I need to change the "From:" in a scripted mail out that I do with perl. Why use Mutt? Why not simply format your headers the way you want them to be, in your script, and then send the result directly to "sendmail -t"? open(MAIL, "|/usr/lib/sendmail -t"); print MAIL "From: Bogus User bogus\@example.com\n"; print MAIL "To: Another User another\@example.com\n"; print MAIL "Subject: This is very important\n"; print MAIL "\n"; print MAIL "This is my message to you.\n"; close(MAIL); If you don't want the recipients to show in the headers, don't use sendmail's -t flag; instead put the users on the command line: @recipients = ( "bogus\@example.com", "another\@example.com" ); open(MAIL, "|/usr/lib/sendmail @recipients"); print MAIL "From: Bogus User bogus\@example.com\n"; print MAIL "To: undisclosed-recipients:;\n"; print MAIL "Subject: This is very important\n"; print MAIL "\n"; print MAIL "This is my message to you.\n"; close(MAIL); It would be nice to get the hooks to work though. Try "send-hook ~A 'my_hdr X-My-Header: blah'" and I think you will see that send-hooks do work. -- David DeSimone | "The doctrine of human equality reposes on this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | that there is no man really clever who has not Hewlett-Packard | found that he is stupid." -- Gilbert K.

Using autoedit with send-hooks ?
I use the autoedit feature of Mutt, and have found that it's incompatible with using send-hooks. Since mutt doesn't prompt you for a recipient when autoedit is turned on, the send-hook never activates. I realize that this falls under the note in the documentation for send-hook, but having used autoedit for a number of months, I don't relish having to retrain myself to put in the recipient and subject before I get into my editor. Is there any way to get the best of both worlds here ? -- j. James FitzGibbon (JF647)[EMAIL PROTECTED] EHLO Solutions Voice/Fax +1 416 410-0100
backslashes in send-hooks
Why do I need to put two backslashes before the '+' in the first regexp, but only one before the '.' in the second? send-hook '~t ^lang\\+moo' 'my_hdr From: Mr Bean lang@ms\.chinmin\.edu\.tw' I have a mailing list set up at a box in my email address and I want to change my From: line for emails to that email+box address. The above send-hook works. I am just interested in the reason why only one backslash didn't work. -- Greg Matheson Make a mistake Chinmin College, Taiwan Try it, you'll like it [EMAIL PROTECTED]
