Hi all - I've finally got my system back up. Now, I'm trying to put into place a more sophisticated mail subsystem. The one thing I want to do is to move all old messages in ~/mail/<mailbox> to an equivalent place in ~/mail/arch/<mailbox>, in the maildir format. However, mutt continually complains about such an arrangement; I suspect it doesn't know how to create the mailboxes itself.
Anyway, for anyone who has done this before, here is the applicable config info: set folder="~/mail/" [snip unimportant stuff] set delete=yes set move=yes set mbox=+read # this will probably never get used, I have multiple mbox-hooks defined # later set postponed=+postponed set record=+sent set mbox_type="Maildir" mailboxes ! +personal +berlin-devel +debian-devel +debian-private \ +debian-mentors +debian-policy +ggi-develop +debian-devel-changes \ +debian-changes +debian-user lists berlin-devel debian-devel debian-devel-changes debian-policy \ debian-mentors debian-private debian-user debian-canges ggi-develop mbox-hook berlin-design +arch/berlin-design mbox-hook debian-devel +arch/debian-devel mbox-hook debian-private +arch/debian-private mbox-hook debian-mentors +arch/debian-mentors mbox-hook debian-policy +arch/debian-policy mbox-hook ggi-develop +arch/ggi-develop mbox-hook debian-user +arch/debian-user alias debian-user "Debian User" <debian-user@lists.debian.org> alias berlin-design "Berlin Development" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> alias debian-devel "Debian Development" <debian-devel@lists.debian.org> alias debian-private "Debian Private" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> alias debian-mentors "Debian Mentors" <debian-mentors@lists.debian.org> alias debian-policy "Debian Policy" <debian-policy@lists.debian.org> alias ggi-develop "GGI Development" <ggi-develop@eskimo.com> # ---END--- does this look right?
