autoconf and mutt-1.3.14
I have recently downloaded the current unstable mutt release, version 1.3.14. It doesn't come with a `configure' script, so I ran the latest version of `autoconf' (version 2.13) to generate one. However, running the resulting `configure' file generates the following error: ./configure: syntax error near unexpected token `AM_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h)' ./configure: ./configure: line 584: `AM_CONFIG_HEADER(config.h)' Is there a special way to run `autoconf' for mutt-1.3.14? Thanks in advance. -- Lloyd Zusman [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Setting From: when replying
When replying to a message, does mutt have the ability to set the From: field automatically based on which email address a message was originally sent to? For example: If someone sends a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], which comes to my mailbox, which also recieves mail for 3 other email addresses, and I hit reply, I'd like the From: field to automatically say From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Eudora does (or used to) do this, and I really liked the feature. It would be nice to have in mutt too. I scoured the docs and .muttrc file and can't seem to find anything relevant.

Mutt 1.3.xx and charset
Hi! I just switched from Mutt-1.2.5i to 1.3.14i, and the first thing I noticed is that German umlauts are replaced by a "?" in all mails which contain a "Content-Type: text/plain;" header. Mutt-1.2.5 displayed them properly as it should be, and reading the docs and changes didn't lead me further. Locale is set-up and works properly, so this can't be the cause.

(All > cases correct) Of cause you can't do that. You set $folder to ~/Mail/outbox, so that mutt will assume that ~/Mail/outbox is a directory, and not a mailbox. set folder=~/Mail # All mailfolders are expected here and the +/= # shortcuts refere to this dir set record=~/Mail/outbox# All mail you sent out will be saved here > mailboxes `echo $HOME/Mail/outbox` Hm, ... so your mailfolders reside under ~/Mail/outbox ?

It wraps long lines in the pager, i.e. for *incomming* mail. For vim put this line in your muttrc: set editor="vim -c 'set tw=72'" or set it in your vimrc.

Hi Sam, Here is what you should include in your muttrc: # This is for mutt to copy your sent mail: set copy=yes set record=+outbox # Have you actually created this? # And this is for your editor to wrwp lines at 68 # (I saw from the end of your message# that you # use vi or vim - the latter is better) set editor="vim -c 'set tw=68'" Good luck: Viktor
Re: creating Mutt folder for sent mail
In response to an earlier rerquest for advice on enabling me to save copies of outgoing mail, Suresh Ramasubrahamian and Frank Naumann suggested a couple of lines to be added to .muttrc. I've incorporated them into my .muttrc but still cannot store sent mail in my /home/sam/Mail/outbox. (All cases correct) Below is a copy of the relevant (and some irrelevant) parts of my .muttrc.

I tried using signatures at work for a while and a lot of LookOut! people
complained. Is there a standard for digital signatures?
