Attachment menu

[Brian Salter-Duke]

The attachemnt menu shows the mime type/subtype with a maximum of
7 characters for type (e.g. applica/) and 10 characters for the
subtype. Could anyone tell me where this limitation is in the
code or is there a way to configure this in .muttrc. I have
a pair of subtypes where the first 10 characters are the same and
I would like to see the difference.

Cheers, Brian.

None. It is enabled by default.
Do you really use sendmail 8.9?

Maybe you should ask in a sendmail group...

DSN feature in sendmail 8.9

[Aris Mulyono]

All,

I tried to set dsn_notify and dsn_return variable in mutt
but when I sent the email the sendmail complained about the option
-N not being recognized.
What FEATURE should I enable specifically in sendmail to do this?

TIA,
-Aris

For one, with IMAP, you should probably be using a later version than
the above.  The development branch has some IMAP benefits like folder
browsing.  Even later stable versions have greatly improved IMAP.

folder-hook . unmy_hdr *
mailboxes {imap.one.com}INBOX {imap.one.com}/home//mail/list
folder-hook imap.one.com 'my_hdr Reply-To: @one.com
folder-hook imap.one.com 'my_hdr From: @one.com
folder-hook imap.one.com 'set imap_user='

mailboxes {imap.two.org}INBOX {imap.two.org}/home/a/mail/list
folder-hook imap.two.org 'my_hdr Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
folder-hook imap.two.org 'my_hdr From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
folder-hook imap.two.org 'set imap_user=a'

mailboxes {imap.two.org}/home/b/mail/inbox {imap.two.org}/home/a/mail/list
folder-hook imap.two.org.*/b/ 'my_hdr Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
folder-hook imap.two.org.*/b/ 'my_hdr From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
folder-hook imap.two.org.*/b/ 'set imap_user=b'

Or something like that.

Mutt supports going to a mailbox with new mail, but only if its in the
mailboxes line, like above.  Granted, it will have to actually connect
to every mailbox to poll them for mail.  There is a setting,
imap_passive which will determine if mutt will open the connection to
all of the servers at startup, or whether it will wait till you open
them yourself.

Confusing...when I run mutt in rxvt yellow is certainly
yellow. As for dtterm I'm not sure what sort of terminal
that is..?

It depends on the terminal. In an rxvt, yellow is "brightbrown"
(and brightyellow is yellow). But in a dtterm, yellow is yellow
and brightyellow is yellow in bold.

Thanks, but no change. I got a reply in private email
from which I learned that yellow is really "brightbrown"
and my console has no support bright background colors,
so guess I'll forget about yellow for the time being.
