As I thought, it was a terminal issue. instead of set mail_editor_command "mutt -H '%s'" using mail_editor_command "export TERM=vt220; mutt -H '%s'; export TERM=rxvt" produces a usable display. I'd got this set as an alias in my bash profile but had completely forgotten about it. Many thanks everyone who chimed in with advice, even those of you who told me not to use mutt ;-) -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

I want to use it because it has all the features that I need when writing mails - saving mails in appropriate mailbox, being able to add attachments, use of my address book, and so on. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

My settings are set sendmail_command "/usr/bin/exim -oi -t -oem -odb" set mail_editor_command "vim \"%s\" -c \"set tw=72\" " I don't think you need mutt to send mail from slrn, it delivers the mail directly to the MTA.

slrn & mutt - display problem
When I use slrn try to reply to a posting by email the entire window simply goes black. My mail_editor_command is "mutt -H '%s'", and I am using rxvt (in Cygwin). I know that mutt starts, and if I kill that process I get my slrn back again, though when I then quit slrn the terminal no longer echoes key presses. Any clues? It looks like it is a terminal problem to me, since I've learned that through following the key presses that I normally would, I get the body of the mail to edit in my editor (displayed correctly), then when I finish that I go back to my lovely black on black colour scheme whilst in mutt, and then finally back to slrn where I can again see what is going on. So mutt is there and accepting input and acting on it. It just doesn't want to show me what it is doing :-( -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
