Re: adding cc automatically - use the editor

What I've not seen is anyone suggesting how it might be accomplished without without using send-hook. use the power of your editor then. however, auto-CCs are quite silly as they usually add an address which gets into the way of people's mailers which know only group-reply and not list-reply. an address in BCC is usually much better. then again, you did not describe the purpose of this idea so i'm just wasting my time with guesses again.

Long term organization
[This may or may not be mutt related, depending on the answer] Recently different posters have mentioned their different ways of organizing their email (by target, by date, etc). I'm currently having mutt pull everything from my spool and sticking it into =Inbox, where I have all my personal mail. perl filters strip spam and mailing lists into their own mailboxes. I've got a fcc hook that puts my sent mail into dated sent-mail mailboxes. Now my question: This form has been working fine for months, but now my Inbox is starting to get quite full. Ideally, I guess I'd like to have an Inbox that hold mail I haven't dealt with (which, depending on the topic, may take months, so I don't want it in the spool that long.), but I'd like an easy way to move entire threads or chunks of a thread into some other mailboxes for archiving. Recommendations? Is this best done with some fancy mutt bindings, or some cron job that moves old messages automatically? How do other people organize their mail when they want to have vast amounts available? -- SwiftOne [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The problem is, though, that new messages always appear as old and unread. This means that mutt -Z is useless. Is there some adjustment that would have to be made on the server to make new messages appear as new (I know next to nothing about either Exchange or IMAP)? Is there something I can tell mutt to get it to treat old/unread as new, particularly with reespect to the -Z option? Here, with IMAP, I get new messages as expected. But when I reconnect to the server, all the new messages become old messages! This is very annoying, in particular when I have to quit and restart Mutt without having read all the new messages. So how do all you IMAP users get an overview of all new mails per folder when you start Mutt ? Do you have to browse each folder to see if there are any new mails ?? Yes. :-( The change-folder command (normally c) shows no new mail indicator, when changing to different IMAP folders. Note: the messages within the folders are properly marked as N (new). And will stay that way until read, presuming that you unset mark_old. It's just the list of folders that does not tell you if there is new mail in a folder, so you have to look in each folder. msg31180/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Deleting HTML mail unread. It's /much/ faster that way. Seriously; I've yet to receive a piece of HTML mail that was worth reading. It's true! With procmail diverting html-only email to a junk folder, it is not each end-of-the-week survey that shows anything of interest. I'm no procmail guru, so others may be able to improve on: # First Content-Type: indicates lack of :0 HB: # a plaintext alternative. i.e. HTML only: * 1^0 ^Content-Type:\/.* * MATCH ?? html junk And if you forget to look in there some weeks, what the heck? :-) (Of the 2247 advertising spams I've received since February, 1899 were html.)

but I'd like an easy way to move entire threads or chunks of a thread
into some other mailboxes for archiving.
I keep one big archive folder for messages that are not active but
that I want to save (I save pretty much everything). I also dump most
of my sent mail there as well, so I can view the folder and see
complete threads.
When that gets too big, I plan on rotating it out to a dated archive
folder. (So I'll move all the messages in =archive from last year to,
say, =archive-2001.)
Moving a message to the archive folder is as easy as 's' for save and
then typing in =archive as the destination folder. I guess you could
make a macro if that's too much typing.
For many messages at once (including threads), tag the messages
('Esc-T' will tag a whole thread) and then do '; s' to save all of the
tagged messages.
