I installed mutt on my MacOS X (using the fink package version) and it works fine except for the aliases. I tried different shells (tcsh is the default shell, bash is available so I tried it, as well as sh) with no luck.
I set my aliases file with "set alias_file=~/.mailaliases" in my .muttrc. If I create an aliase while using mutt, that aliases is added to the enf of the .mailaliases file and immediately becoms useable. If I exit out of mutt and start mutt again I have no aliases. -- Josh Kuperman [EMAIL PROTECTED]
