[Nmh-workers] More than one parameters in .mh_profile

2012-05-28 Thread Aleksander Matuszak
In the .mh_profile some entries specifies programs like: Editor: vim-mail moreproc: less postproc: /usr/lib/mh/post Some of those programs require options or parameters but apparently this is not accepted. I need moreproc to be "less -force" but show (nmh-1.3) refuses this. Workaround is to ma

[Nmh-workers] UTF-8 message bodies

2012-05-28 Thread Joel Uckelman
My wife pointed out to me today that for the past seven years (!) since the Linux distribution we use switched to UTF-8, when she sends messages containing non-ASCII characters they show up as gibberish for many of the recipients---but not for me. I'm also using a UTF-8 locale, which explains why I

Hi Joel, > Is there a solution to this with nmh 1.4 or 1.5? I've changed my mail/components, etc., to have these three MIME headers in and then I create a UTF-8 file in vim. I need to delete them if I'm going to `mime' at the whatnow(1) prompt, e.g. for attaching a file, because it quite rightly

[Nmh-workers] nmh in debian

2012-05-28 Thread Harald Geyer
Hi! At the time of the 1.4 release I mentioned, that Nick Rusnov (CCed) is still the debian maintainer of nmh. While he is indeed listed there as of today[1], he obviously didn't find the time to update the debian package. 1: http://packages.qa.debian.org/nmh As debian is going to freeze quite s
