Hello,
mutt is wonderful. However there is nothing perfect in this world (for
me, that is), so I'd like to talk a bit about ignore_list_reply_to
variable. We have a couple of local (in geographical sense) mailing
lists in which mails come with a huge variance in To: fields, e.g.
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: "Programming mailing list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
To: My Good Friend [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and even
To: "Someones Real Name" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
(there are three aliases instead of one fixed domain name, so
[EMAIL PROTECTED] above is always the same mailing list). It is now
being voted if Reply-To should contain just the mailing list address
(one of the three), or both mailing list and original sender address.
Unfortunately, this renders mutt's `ignore_list_reply_to' completely
useless.
But wouldn't it be better if mutt just parsed the Reply-To field in
this way: if any of the addresses there belongs to a mailing list
AND it is also mentioned in the To field, then it is simply ignored
as if it wasn't there at all.
Also, does anybody know what `Content-Type: text/plain, charset="utf-7"'
mean? I do know UTF-8, but I can only guess what UTF-7 is. AFAIK both
Netscape and Internet Explorer support it. I recently received a couple
of mails in this encoding (mailer: MS Outlook Express 5.00) and the only
thing that looked strange was quoting string: `+AD4- '. Unfortunately,
mutt does not support it.
Still, mutt is wonderful. Any chances of porting it to Win32 so I could
comfortably read my mail at work too? :)
Best Regards,
Marius Gedminas
