I am using mutt 1.2.5i with a hodge podge .muttrc. I have pinched the following from Roland Rosenfeld's keybindings : macro index \ea "!$EDITOR ~/.mutt_alias\n:source ~/.mutt_alias\n" \ "Edit aliases file and reload it" but using <esc>a gives the following error sh: /home/spavri/.mutt_alias: Permission denied Press any key to continue... Ths is what I have: [spavri@farzaan spavri]$ ls -al .mutt_alias -rw------- 1 spavri spavri 5228 Oct 3 19:46 .mutt_alias I even tried changing the perms to 664 and even 666 but no go; same error turns up. What am I doing wrong ? regards, Sharukh.
