Are you using scsi-emulation? If not, then your drive will be in
/dev/hd

As you say it's on the same cable as the cdrom, it will be "c" or "d"

If your cd-rom is /dev/hdc, your zip will be /dev/hdd

Check for messages about those devices in `dmesg` or /var/log/kernel.
You'll find the wanted info over there.

Now, if you have scsi-emulation... how is your cdrom device called?

Yep ;-) And I just found out I didn't had to use mail2alias.py for that to
work... I've read all the mutt manual yesterday and I'm quite sure that
"action" is not documented there :(

Anyway, that is still not what I wanted. For instance, what I get when I
press "a" with and e-mail that has this header

-From: "Diogo Quintela (EF)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,...

is that "a" allows me to get "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", but what I wanted was that
it allowed me to select from a list, just like pine allows...
For instance, it could do like this:
"
Multiple e-mail addresses found. Please choose the one you want:
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
"

For instance, what if someone tells you, in a mail:

" From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
   Hi! About your problem, please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ! "

How do you take that "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" address? write it down in a
paper, exit mutt, add alias to file, enter mutt? (or some other
combination of these actions, whatever)

See the question now?
Thank you ;-)


And Btw, what is "mail2alias.py" used to? Or it has become obsolete
because mutt integrated the functionality?
