Cool, just what I was loking for, thanks! > built-in editor - Right at the end of the manual of course ;-). Hm, I presume you must mean the editor window key bindings. Sorry, but the editor window is when I edit message bodies. If editing e.g. the fcc field in composer after pressing f is also the editor, the manual should say so. Specifically, TAB TAB only works when editing fcc, not e.g. cc (sensible). Where does it say that in the manual? Bug: the manual doesn't mention TAB in the compose window reference. > > On a similar vain, why can't I select from any of the mail folders > > (like after c) from the send screen when I want to change Fcc:? > > Works for me, at least tab-completion does Yes >, and two tabs takes me to the > folder browser. Yes, but its file display is stuffed. In composer window, press f, prompt for editing fcc appears. It shows =logfile. Press TAB twice, the only file listed is logfile. The mask variable is "!^\.[^.]". Press m to change mask, press enter to not change the mask, and voila - the correct list of files appears. This must be a bug? mutt 1.3.22.1i s.keeling writes: > Press return, copy them all from the From: line to the Cc: line, or > just blow them away and enter the alias on the Cc: line.
