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.

Since you can use any muttrc command in send-hooks, it would be unworkably complex to try to limit the scope to that message only. It's something you just have to be aware of when working send-hooks, that for every hook that you use, if you want to have a default value, you must set it yourself with a "send-hook . whatever".
