compose with mutt on a remote server
Hi, i've installed maildir on a remote mail-server. I've no problem to access/send with mutt, but when i compose a message all my settings from ~/.mutt as the *hooks for example aren't used. I suspect once connected the ~/.mutt is no more followed. Is there a way to maintain the home-mutt settings ? mess-mate
mutt freezes when fed high character in header
I had mutt freeze (again) while opening an mbox today. It gets to the point where it prints 'sorting mailbox' and hangs. I finally tracked it down to a message containing a From: header in which an 8-bit character wasn't properly encoded: X-Amavis-Alert: BAD HEADER, Non-encoded 8-bit data (char E6 hex): From: "Danny Kj\346r..." (Nice of amavis to point that out.) Remove the message from the mbox and it opens just fine.

accessing remote mailboxes
Hi, i've sette-up a mailserver with the mailboxes on the server, so the messages must be consulted ( not retrived) from the remote desktops. Questions: 1 - is there a way with mutt to setup shared folders? 2 - is the ~/mutt of the user still used ? best regards mess-mate -- So so is good, very good, very excellent good: and yet it is not; it is but so so. -- William Shakespeare, "As You Like It"
imap-access via ssl (not tls)
Hi, I access my mails via imap. There are some problems with tls on the other side: tls_socket_read (A TLS packet with unexpected length was received.) So I want to switch to ssl-only (without tls). Can mutt do this? My current config: set spoolfile="imaps://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/INBOX" set folder="imaps://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/INBOX" set mail_check=90 set timeout=30 set connect_timeout=15 set imap_keepalive=600 set imap_list_subscribed # activate TLS if available on the server #set ssl_starttls=yes # always use SSL when connecting to a server #set ssl_force_tls=yes set ssl_use_sslv3=yes unset imap_passive Is this correct? I also want to shorten the time of keepalive-packets. What are good values? Best regards, Paul -- signature.asc Description: Digital signature
