I was recently unsubscribed (I am subscribed again now), saw a message
from Bernard Massot in the archives, asking about folder-specific macros
for 'm', to send mail to the right participants.
He thought it would be a good idea to send this to the list, so here it is,
with a bit more tacked on the end, along with a question at the end.
---
What I do is admittedly a little complicated.
Procmail automatically creates folders for lists (ask for the recipe if
you want, I got it off the net somewhere...) and puts them in folders
like this: (Snipped output, but explanatory enough...)
apex:~/.Mail/lists$ ls
[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
I also have save hooks to save to the email address of the sender, and save
sent messages to that folder, if it exists. [ed note: appended on bottom]
What you want is here:
# These use macros to specify a default recipient for the folders it
# makes sense for.
folder-hook . 'macro index m "<mail>"'
folder-hook . 'macro pager m "<mail>"'
source "~/.mutt/hooks/folder.recip.sh ~/.Mail/lists/"|
source "~/.mutt/hooks/folder.recip.sh ~/.Mail/people/"|
With me so far?
~~/.mutt/hooks/folder.recip.sh is the following:
#!/bin/sh
# Generates folder-hooks of the form:
#
# folder-hook DIRNAME 'macro index m "<mail>DIRNAME<enter>"'
if [ $# -ne 1 ]; then
echo "Usage: $0 name";
exit 127;
fi
for i in $(ls $1);do
echo "folder-hook $i 'macro index m \"<mail>$i<enter>\"'";
echo "folder-hook $i 'macro pager m \"<mail>$i<enter>\"'";
done
# end
And there we have it.
# These generate fcc-save-hooks for each address/list that already has
# its own folder.
source "~/.mutt/hooks/save.sh ~/.Mail/lists/"|
source "~/.mutt/hooks/save.sh ~/.Mail/people/"|
save-hook . =people/%a
~~/.mutt/hooks/save.sh is this:
#!/bin/sh
# Generates fcc-save-hooks of the form:
# fcc-save-hook DIRNAME =DIR/ADDRESS
if [ $# -ne 1 ]; then
echo "Usage: $0 name";
exit 127;
fi
for i in $(ls $1);do\
echo "fcc-save-hook $i =$(basename $1)/$i";\
done
And then that's done too. If you don't have a folder for a person, it
throws a message sent to them into record, if you do, it puts it in
there.
Now the question: Can I make these all case insensitive? For instance
right now things to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] are all
treated differently, so with a mail sent to each of these addresses,
only the one that matches the folder name including case sensitivity
gets put there, the others go into record.
Thanks in advance.
