Mutt is able to match multiple levels of quoting if you use the ()+. This
is useful for coloring them different ways:
color quoted greendefault
color quoted1 yellow default
color quoted2 greendefault

Ok:
the outer (.)+ is two things: a grouping "()" and "one or more"
(the "+");
BTW this is unneeded guys since this is purely for recognising
quoted lines, not matching the entire quoted marker
the stuff inside the outer () is:
[ \t]* zero or more "*" spaces-or-tabs "[ \t]"
then
([>|:}#%]|[A-Z]{2,3}>)
which is an alternation "(...|...|...)" meaning match one of the "..."
parts,
containing two alternatives:
[>|:}#%]one of the characters > | : } # %
or
[A-Z]{2,3}> exactly 2 or 3 "{2,3}"
of the characters in the range A-Z,
immediately followed by the character >
So in short it's looking for some leading whitespace and then either a single
quote marker ( "> | : } # %" ) or an attribution marker like "CS>" for lines
from "Cameron Simpson".
The outer "(...)+" is superfluous in my opinion.

Suggestion of adding some contents
Thank you, Justin. I've just gone thru your tutorial. It's helpful. However, I would suggest some more info to be included, which I've tried hard (with 'man gpg' and google search) but can not yet get a clear picture of pgp. Don't blame me posting this in mutt mail listing, and asking your tutorial too much. :-) Because mutt is the starting point that I learn PGP. And I believe many people need some basic concepts which are hard to find explained. (That's pretty weird!) I hope your tutorial can help newbies like me. 1. There is a confusing set of terms for a key: user id, fingerprint, public key which refer to sililar/related stuff. Especially the various forms of specifying a user id. AFAIK: fingerprint - an ID for human eye's verification? public key - a file containing an unreadable value for algorithm user id (short form, 8 hex digits) - an key ID for your convenience to specify a key for gpg, not guaranteed to be unique (non-ambiguous) user id (long form, 16 hex digits) - better ID but who'll use it? user id (catenated fingerprint digits, 40) - BEST ID (I then found the 'short form' is the right-most 8 digits of fingerprint. user id (in the form of your account name, real name or email address) - these are just 'searchable' string for your key that gpg can maintain a couple of them in term of 'uid' when you run '$ gpg --list-keys '. 2. In gpg's key listing, I see, eg.: pub 1024D/C9C40C31 2001-05-25 Justin R. Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> uidJustin R. Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> uidJustin R. Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> sub 1024g/59FAB546 2001-05-25 But what's the 'sub' entry? What's the ID in it? I guess the 'uid' entries are just extensions of 'pub' entry, which contains a key ID plus a 'uid'(the 'name ' string). But it takes me long to get it. Sign! Why don't they make a newbie's life easier? 3. When I get clearer with gpg, I try to make my 'uid' more informative for others. But I found gpg doesn't provide good maintaining method to update them. You can not update uid except using adduid/deluid. You can not(?) change the 'preference' order of those uid's. The worse, I found I have no way to remove my old uid's in keyserver - they just accumulate. Strange gpg. Justin, you are a good tutor. If you can rescue, please help. best regards, charlie On Fri, Jan 04, 2002 at 05:35:39PM -0500, Justin R.

Re: envelope ?
There is a From: field in the email message and there is a from field on the "envelope" wrapping the message. They are two different things. When mutt passes off the message to your Mail Transport Agent, e.g. Sendmail, Sendmail prepends certain information to it: specifically the from field, date and time, all on the first line. Sendmail may try to create this from field using, say, your login name and your machine name, based on /etc/hosts. Unfortunately, this may not be your address with your ISP. In some cases, this will cause you message to bounce. Sendmail has a -f switch, documented in the Mutt manual, which forces Sendmail to use your email From: address to be your envelope from. A side benefit is that you may get an additional header inserted by sendmail that looks like this: X-Authentication-warning: John.optonline.net: john set sender to [EMAIL PROTECTED] using -f This can be fixed by changing Sendmail configurations, but, hey life is too short already, no? So, mutt lets you fix this problem with the envelope_from setting. OT, this issue is encountered elsewhere, like, for instance, slrn, where I have to force the sendmail command to be able to forward mail from it.

No, NO, *NO*!
pgp_outlook_compat will make a text/plain message, that is readable
properly in Outlook, but *only* *if* pgp_create_traditional succeeds.
Unfortunately p_c_t gets silently dropped for message which are not
us-ascii, i.e. most of my personal mails, since I use fancy stuff like
ä's and ö's and ü's and the like.
p_c_t and p_o_c break on iso-latin1 and on any mails with attachments,
so they are basically useless for a lot of people.
Here's a patch which creates pgp_force_traditional, which if
p_c_t is set, will always create a clear-signed PGP messages (not sure
for mails of attachments though). That way, p_o_c can do the job it's
supposed to do. I haven't tested it a lot since I wrote it, but it
appears to do the right thing.
Patch is against mutt-1.3.24, I'll test it tomorrow against 1.3.25, and
you need to have the pgp_outlook_compat patch applied first.
I don't know a lot about the mutt source, so this might break stuff,
haven't tested it a lot.
Cheers,
Viktor

I have a patch that does almost that: http://schrab.com/aaron/mutt/patch-1.3.24.ats.date_optional.1 That should apply to pretty much any version of mutt, since it was originally done when 0.96.6 was current.

Just curious... Is there any reason that you're using
ls -l | awk
instead of a simple
ls -1
to build your list? The -1 shouldn't really be necessary, even, since
you're piping to an egrep, but it ensures that you'll get your output in
a column and isn't a bad idea -- and, more importantly, doesn't waste the

It's because there is a chicken-and-egg problem. send-hook changes settings apropos to the generation of the reply/forward, such as whether to include the message, its encoding, etc. Unless you specify the addresses prior to editing the message, Mutt can't go back and alter the message according to the settings you want.

mutt-1.3.25i: $pgp_create_traditional creates application/pgp instead of text/plain messages
Package: mutt Version: 1.3.25i Severity: important -- Please type your report below this line The typical PGP message is encapsulated with its signature in PGP-MIME format. Many mail programs cannot handle that and, although its use is not encouraged, mutt now includes a $pgp_create_traditional variable to sign messages "in-line" instead of with a MIME-attached signature. This is not sufficient for many mail programs, including (but not limited to) MS Outlook and PINE. To provide the text/plain format required by those mailers, Shane Wegener created his pgp-outlook patch with a $pgp_outlook_compat variable which, when set, formats the message correctly. The behavior of $pgp_create_traditional should be changed to match that when $pgp_outlook_compat is set -- the message will be in text/plain format instead of application/pgp format. :-D -- Build environment information (Note: This is the build environment installed on the system muttbug is run on.

Re: Possible to get the mail fetched by getmail filtered?
Thanks, Roman. 1. My getmail.log gives: Aborting... (command "/usr/bin/maildrop ~/.maildroprc" returned 19200 (maildrop: signal 0x06)) $getmail gives sth similar: msg #1 : len 998 ... retrievedfailed to process message list for "charlesjie" (command "/usr/bin/maildrop ~/.maildroprc" returned 19200 (maildrop: signal 0x06)) Resetting connection and aborting... 2. My maildrop now looks OK and saves message to given mbox. The problem is that getmail doesn't remove message in POP server. I'll get a copy of the same message each time I run getmail. 3. getmail also fails to fetch mail if the destination mbox doesn't exist. Thus I can not let mutt remove the empty mbox file when all messages are deleted. 4. My getmail is 2.1.9, while maildrop is 1.3.4. The broken getmail rpm from Mandrake 8.1 is 2.1.5. I'll send it to you in another mail. It misses ALL the python modules. 5. About getmail documentation, I agree the author did work hard and write much. I just happen to need sth not sufficiently covered. To have a filter, I can only find an instance throughtout the mentioned documents - postmaster = |/path/to/command that's all. No syntax description about such case. When I try to add arguments to the command, I've got to try out: postmaster = |/usr/bin/procmail -Y -t (wrong) postmaster = "|/usr/bin/procmail -Y -t" (correct) 6. Futher, getmail doesn't mention the restriction of point 3. 7. It takes no hard work to prepare man page but it's a big convenience. Without it, I need to run "$ rpm -ql getmail" to find out the right document every time, and then copy and paste to run "less" to check it. Do you have a better approach to do it? thanks, (and sorry to post getmail's question here. I regard such filter function as a part of Using Mutt.) charlie On Wed, Jan 09, 2002 at 05:07:03PM +0100, Roman Neuhauser wrote: > > I've tried procmail and maildrop to go with getmail but all failed.
