I know this is most likely a permisions problem but need some help as I am a Windows convert. I have a script /usr/bin/send_mail that fires mutt to send an email. If I run it from command line it works. I put in a line LOGGER: Sent mail which shows up in my /var/log/messages and I can see it using tail However if I run the same script from a program I am using I get the LOGGER statement in the messages file but it doesn't send email? Help would be greatly appreciated. Peter secs.net.au Licenced Electrician Speciliasing in: HVAC-BUILDING AUTOMATION-REMOTE DATA AQUISITION "Are your tools safe?" TEST AND TAG Service. Peter 2008-12-03T02:08:32 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31642 Hello I have some problems with header caching in mutt. I have set the following variable in .muttrc: set header_cache=$HOME/mail/hcache My mail is organized like that: $HOME/mail -> box1 -> box2 -> box3 -> hcache There are no files created in the hcache folder, why? Do I have to put a slash at the end of the line in .muttrc? All of my mailboxes are in maildir format, I have mutt version 1.5.8i with mdn-patch and the header-cache option passed to configure during building. What could be wrong? I didn't use a separate patch for hcache. Best regards Szymon Szymek 2008-12-02T14:03:07 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31641 Hi, After having searching on the web and in the archives, I come to you for this small question. When replying ('r') mutt can add a chosen signature but cannot remove the old one, i.e the one from the sender. In the FAQ, it's written that mutt cannot strip automaticaly signatures since this should be the editor's job (vim in my case). But why so ? Any pointers on how to do that with vim ? Thanks -- Steve steve 2008-12-02T13:55:18 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31634 Hi, When I'm replying a mail in a mail list, for example, a mail in mutt-users< at >mutt.org from ABC< at >gmail.com, the default target is "To: ABC< at >gmail.com", how to changed it to the following? "To: ABC< at >gmail.com, Cc:mutt-users< at >mutt.org" Do I need something like hook? Could you please help me on this? Thanks. Best Lars Chengqi(Lars) Song 2008-12-02T11:09:34 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31631 Hi all: I know RFC 2047 encoding MIME is explicitly prohibited by the standard. But unfortunately, a lot of my correspondents use the email client which only decoded RFC 2047 encoded attachment, not RFC 2231, including gmail. So my question is that is there some way to let mutt sent RFC 2047 encoding attachment? Shaochun Wang 2008-12-02T02:38:50 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31624 I've just recently switched to 1.5.18 (mainly because of increased hcache performance) and have noticed that the results shown from a query_command start at 0 as opposed to 1. This makes it impossible to change to an entry by its number. My query command is: set query_command="/home/festus/bin/mutt-ldap.pl '%s'" using 1.5.16: 1 Backpacking Light Mailing List address1< at >yahoogroups.com 2 Name 2 address2< at >speedymail.org 3 Name 3 address3< at >generalmills.com using 1.5.18 0 Backpacking Light Mailing List address1< at >yahoogroups.com 1 Name 2 address2< at >speedymail.org 2 Name 3 address3< at >generalmills.com Does anyone else see this?

I've changed the following: # --- configuration --- $ldapserver = "ldap.messagingengine.com"; $domain = "fastmail.fm"; $username = 'dc=my_user_name< at >150ml.com,ou=Users'; $password = "my_password"; $basedn = "dc=AddressBook"; # --- end configuration --- and... $ldap->bind($username, password=>$password); per instructions at http://wiki.fastmail.fm/index.php?title=LDAP#Mutt Also in muttrc set query_command = "/home/user/bin/mutt-ldap.pl '%s'" but consistently get the following error: authentication required at /home/festus/mutt-ldap.pl line 46, <DATA> line 466. I have also tried mail.messagingengine.com and also tried AddressBooks, both of which were mentioned in a long thread on fastmails discussion groups (http://www.emaildiscussions.com/showthread.php?t=52707). This is all running on a Gentoo VM using mutt 1.5.18 from tip. Any and all help appreciated, festus P.S. I know close to zero about perl. John J. Foster 2008-11-28T14:48:20 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31618 Hello how can I sync the mailbox after save a message to any folder like this: macro s "<save-message>?" the above works great, but after this save mutt should sync automatically. Like this: macro s "<save-message>?<sync-mailbox>" but, this doesn't work, because mutt wait for any data from user and take then ync-mailbox> as mailbox-destination, which is wrong. any tips? Thank you. Raphael trance202< at >gmx.ch 2008-11-27T13:20:13 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31616 I think I got it :) This was missing in my .muttrc folder-hook .

Could you paste your thread-mode related settings? Thanks. Best Lars Chengqi(Lars) Song 2008-11-26T06:41:05 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31609 Hi! % send-hook . 'unmy_hdr From:' % send-hook . 'set signature="~/.signature"' % send-hook '~C "< at >domain\.com"' 'my_hdr From: name< at >domain.com' % send-hook '~f "name< at >domain\.com"' 'set signature="~/.signature-domain"' If the From: address has been changed by the third send-hook, the fourth one won't match. However, if the From: address has been changed thanks to reverse_name, then the fourth send-hook will match. To sum up, it seems that the address matched with ~f stay the same while all send-hooks are processed. Is it the expected behaviour? Regards, Jeremie Le Hen 2008-11-25T16:31:19 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31606 Hi, This is something I wanted to have for some time, ability to make mutt ignore certain mailboxes for some time, so that they don't bother me all day, but to be able to review them when convenient. Yesterday I bit the bullet and this is the result: In .muttrc, I replaced my 'mailboxes' line with comment # MY_MAILBOXES \ _+INBOX \ _+postponed \ +some_stuff \ +cc-interest +dbx-interest +dtrace-discuss \ _+mutt_users \ ... folders beginning with underscore are the important ones. Rest is: macro index,pager y <esc>Y "Show important mail only" ######################################## # Important mailinglists ######################################## `cat $HOME/.muttrc | perl -e ' \ $tmp=join "", <>; \ $tmp=~s/\\\n//gs; \ $tmp=~m/\n#[ \t]*MY_MAILBOXES[ \t]*(.*?)\n/s; \ < at >all=split /\s+/, $1; \ $important=join " ", map { s/^_//; $_ } grep /^_/, < at >all; \ $all=join " ", map { s/^_//; $_ } < at >all; \ print "mailboxes $all;"; \ print "macro index,pager <esc>y \"<enter-command>unmailboxes *<enter><enter-command>mailboxes $all<enter><enter-command>color indicator blue white<enter><refresh><enter-command>macro index,pager y \\\\eY \\\"Show important mail only\\\"<enter>\"; "; \ print "macro index,pager <esc>Y \"<enter-command>unmailboxes *<enter><enter-command>mailboxes $important<enter><enter-command>color indicator red white<enter><refresh><enter-command>macro index,pager y \\\\ey \\\"Show all mail\\\"<enter>\""; \ print "\n"; \ '` By pressing 'y' I switch between all mailboxes defined and just the important ones. When I'm observing just the important ones, my indicator turns red, and is blue otherwise. Hope this helps someone Vladimir Marek 2008-11-25T08:56:59 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31604 Hi, is someone trying out emacs with multi TTY support as editor for mutt (see [1]). I installed the Debian packages, and it seems to work, but it would be interesting to see how your experience with it is. On the console with screen, it seems to be the only way to use an emacs client as editor for mutt that appears in the same screen mutt is running in, other than running mutt within emacs (which is something I don't like to do). For those who haven't tried it yet and were looking for a solution like this, it might be worth a try. If there is another way to do it, I'd like to hear how to do it.

I use mutt 1.5.18 with menu_scroll = yes When I enter a mailbox, mutt automatically highlights the oldest message with the new flag set and puts it in the first line of the index. If I have a screen with 30 free lines for the index, my mailbox contains 20 items and I have only a new message (the last, since I sort by date), mutt shows only the last message at the top of the screen. How can I force mutt to show as many messages as they can fit the screen? So, in this case, show all the 20 msg and highlight the last? Sorry for my bad english. Alberto Rizzi 2008-11-23T14:29:40 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31596 I can not seem to set the disposition type of an attachment when sending from the command line. I would like to use mutt in a script to send scanned pdf files to a certain mailbox automatically so I use this command line: mutt -a bon0001.pdf -s bon0001.pdf mail< at >box.nl < /dev/null This results in an e-mail with an attachment declared like this: Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=bon0001.pdf Content-Type: application/pdf; name=bon0001.pdf Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 But I want "Content-Disposition: inline" for my pdf files so I can instantly read the files in my e-mail reader. I can not seem to find the setting to get mutt to do this for me and it is driving me crazy! ;-) Who can help me?

So I installed Debian Etch and compiled mutt version 1.5.8-1 with the mdn-patch. Now, I have a problem with different "From:" headers when replying or writing new mails from different mailboxes. I have four of them, all in maildir format. Here are the relevant lines from my .muttrc: # set from: firstbox< at >sthg.com # set use_from=yes set spoolfile=~/mail/firstbox folder-hook . 'set from="firstbox< at >sthg.com" realname="Blabla"' folder-hook secondbox 'set from="secondbox< at >sthg.com" realname="BlaBla"' folder-hook thirdbox 'set from="thirdbox< at >sthg.com" realname="BlaBla"' folder-hook fourthbox 'set from="fourthbox< at >sthg.com" realname="Blabla"' (the first two lines are commented out in my .muttrc) Now, when I go into the mail folder secondbox, thirdbox or fourthbox, everything is alright and I get the right address in "From:"-header, regardless whether I send new emails or reply. But in the firstbox (which should be my default) I always get the email-address from the secondbox in the From-header, even if I change the period in the first folder-hook to the name of the first (default) box. What am I doing wrong? Best regards Szymon szymekwm< at >o2.pl 2008-11-22T15:31:57 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31583 Hi, is it possible to configure mutt so that pressing the TAB key in the pager (to display the next unread message) while reading mails which are within a thread doesn't leave the scope of the thread? It it's possible, how do I do that? lee 2008-11-22T04:25:41 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31582 I like to have my personal e-mails threaded in the same way as what happens when I post to mailing lists. After hitting 'm' I just edit the "Bcc:" field when the e-mail is not going to a mailing list . and when I hit 'r' I do it systematically. The only trouble about this approach is that half of the time I just forget and have to go to my sent folder and re-send the message to myself so that it eventually takes its place in the relevant thread. I was wondering if there was a fairly simple way to have mutt help me with this. I'm sure I could come up with some complex hook that - e.g. checks the lists I am currently subscribed to and add the "Bcc:" header for all mail that's not directed to a mailing list -- hence, hopefully covering both the 'm'--new messages, and the 'r'--replies to individuals (not mailing lists). But since I have limited time to spend on this hobby and a lot on my plate at this point, I was thinking that displaying "Bcc: anyone on this message?" just before I get actually hit 'y' to send the message would be satisfactory .. especially if I had "no" as the default reply and if my Bcc: address could be retrieved from a list of aliases or something. Hope this makes sense. CJ Chris Jones 2008-11-22T01:28:45 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.mutt.user/31576 This may properly be a PGP (or GPG) question, but I thought I'd inquire here for a mutt-based solution. I want to auto-retrieve PGP public keys for only certain messages. I don't want to fill my keyring with keys from mailing lists, for example, but I do want to retrieve and verify keys from private correspondents. Under the default mutt configuration, setting keyserver-options to auto-key-retrieve in gpg.conf will grab any available public key for each email. Does anyone have a solution--a macro, perhaps--that would add the public key to my keyring only when called?
