I've got a with some pathes that I set in my muttrc being ignored. A while back I wrote about print_command not being set correctly. That problem could be worked around by manually setting print_command after mutt had started, which isn't a big deal since I don't print many emails. Now, I've found a similar problem with mailcap_path - it is always set to ".mailcap:". This also can be worked around by always running mutt from my home directory, but it is annoying. I know that my muttrc is being read, since other variables are set correctly. And even some paths are set correctly. For instance if I've set alias_file to some arbitrary filename in my muttrc, the correct value is set. Here's an excerpt from my muttrc: set mailcap_path = ~/.mailcap set print_command = '/usr/local/bin/enscript -2r' And some output from set from inside of mutt: :set mailcap_path mailcap_path=".mailcap:" :set print_command print_command="/usr/ucb/lpr" And from mutt -v: System: SunOS 5.7 [using ncurses 4.2] Compile options: -DOMAIN +DEBUG -HOMESPOOL -USE_SETGID +USE_DOTLOCK -DL_STANDALONE +USE_FCNTL -USE_FLOCK -USE_POP -USE_IMAP -USE_GSS -USE_SSL -USE_SASL +HAVE_REGCOMP -USE_GNU_REGEX +HAVE_COLOR +HAVE_START_COLOR +HAVE_TYPEAHEAD +HAVE_BKGDSET +HAVE_CURS_SET +HAVE_META +HAVE_RESIZETERM +HAVE_PGP -BUFFY_SIZE -EXACT_ADDRESS -SUN_ATTACHMENT +ENABLE_NLS -LOCALES_HACK +HAVE_WC_FUNCS +HAVE_LANGINFO_CODESET +HAVE_LANGINFO_YESEXPR +HAVE_ICONV +ICONV_NONTRANS +HAVE_GETSID -HAVE_GETADDRINFO ISPELL="/usr/local/bin/ispell" SENDMAIL="/usr/lib/sendmail" MAILPATH="/var/mail" PKGDATADIR="/home/crumley/local/share/mutt" SYSCONFDIR="/home/crumley/local/etc" EXECSHELL="/bin/sh" -MIXMASTER Any ideas what could be going on?
