This Korean one displays correctly as well.

If this is Japanese, it doesn't show at all.  They are all squares, I know I

I can't tell you what packages to install to get this font on your OS

out which package I installed to get it on *my* distro...  ^^;

I can tell you, there are two particular fonts I have that display

xterm to use them:

XTerm*font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed-*-13-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*

So, I think, all this Asian fonts are just mutter of correct font being

They display correctly even in my Nano editor.

 HTML mails, hmm. Bad thing. I don't like, nor do I write them
 myself, but receiving them (because some suppliers think they
 don't have to follow my wish if I ask them to not do so) is very
 uncomfortable in mutt. But its just that. Whereas I repeatedly
 explained why an external application does not work for return
 receipts. It does not very good for HTML mails, but it at least
 _does_.

You make a difference, we don't: for us it has the same annoyance
level as well as functional solution for those needing it
desperately nevertheless (and sufficiently convenient once it works).

 But if it is featured by _every_ mail client in business
 environments then it should probably be supported.

 BTW. this whole discussion again does not have anything to do,
 with what this all is about.

You're mistaken, because for us it has.
You want a more convenient solution for what is already possible as
it is now. The same is for all the other given examples: they
_could_ be more convenient, but need not be for either there are
better external tools for it (news, mailcap conversion, ...) or some
muttrc construct works well enough.
Not all that is popular in numbers in business means good in general
to make it convenient to use with mutt, see TOFU (which is range in
the same level as return-receipt for me: exceptionally necessary,
but not generally desired, same with HTML).

 After all its not too hard to achieve all this, but its wasted
 effort, as with a lot of care you cannot guarantee that this will
 run in a few days, weeks or months because admin could decide to
 remove just one of the tools you need to achieve what you need.
 Remember: Not every user of mutt is the admin of the machine.

Yes, but I think you're too paranoid or haven't noticed the required
tools for such a solution: they are _basic_ unix tools like ls, which
no sane admin would consider removing.
If your admin is not sane, then you have bigger problems than this.

 Usually one automates rather complex processes, while we are
 talking about a pretty simple function ...

Your assumption is wrong: automation is not a matter of size but of
repetition. Especially simple stuff can be quickly implemented
easily without having to hardcode.

 establish the functionality standalone.

It appears complex to you, but in fact it _is_ simple.

 It is like removing 'ls' from a shell and saying: You could write
 your own ls, because thats possible and a shell really should not
 implement a ls command on its own.

Nobody is removing anything, actually you're being given something
that didn't exist before: ls2.

 You keep claiming that it is little-used but thats just not
 true. It is wideley supported, wideley used and commonly expected.
 So all your arguments that are based on this wrong premises
 actually are _wrong_.

Little used, wildly used, no side can prove its point by numbers.
We only have gut feelings about our personal experience. So this
can't ever be a valid argument, for either side.

  As a related example, I'm still disappointed SMTP support got
  added.
 
 Well, feel free to not compile it with SMTP support, then. Thats
 far easier then maintaining a patch outside of upstream for years.

No patching would ever be needed if you accepted that SMTP
functionality doesn't belong to mutt and is _safely_ handled by
whatever you specify in $sendmail.

 YOU are disappointed about it, while I am quiet happy about this,

It has no benefit for _you_! :)

 Being able to say, Mutt can do that, if you write a script to do
 it, and write a macro to invoke the script and... does not
 constitute support for a feature in Mutt. Mutt should implement
 features that are commonly implemented in other mailers so that
 users of Mutt can interoperate with people who don't use Mutt,
 which is by far the majority of mail users.

Hmm, why should mutt aim for the masses rather than the quality?

 Mutt's claim is that it sucks less than all other mailers, which was
 once true; but IMO with each new feature that other mailers implement
 that Mutt does not, this becomes less and less the case, and I'm not
 sure if that is still true anymore.

I say it depends on what those features are.
Not all that is popular demand is desirable to make it a habit for all.

 {...} I think the ONLY reason I still use mutt is because I do
 most of my personal mail reading remotely, and Mutt still DOES
 suck less than the rest of TEXT-BASED mailers... But I wonder if
 it isn't only a matter of time before even that isn't true
 anymore.

Maybe you're expecting too much from mutt, as much as I am in the

 If a function is e-mail related, and commonly supported by other
 mailers, then it seems to me Mutt should have built-in support for
 it too. Mutt is a Mail USER Agent (not a mail DEVELOPER agent),
 and it should interoperate with other mailers, and should do
 everything that users commonly want to do with mail without a lot
 of fuss.

Including spam management, sorting/ filtering, mime handling, ...?
News is so similar to mail, and all the other mailers do that, too,
why not mutt? It's not mail-related enough for you? But it's sooo
close...

You mistake configurability and the need to do so with the users
having to be somehow special. If a little rtfm disqualifies users
for mutt ... that's sad, but they shouldn't use mutt then, and mutt
shouldn't change to become a product for a mindless mass, that's
what OL is for. ;)

 The only things that should require fuss are things that are not
 commonly wanted by common mail users. And don't forget that just
 because YOU don't find any value in a feature, that doesn't mean
 it's not a feature that common users want...

Common here, value there, no proof anywhere.

The same can happen with hardcode: it sucks when you have no ssl,

Well, ... your viewpoint is limited to your single specific case.
Taking into consideration that your request is only one among many
makes it a strategical decision how to handle all of them.
Broaden your view.

 We are not talking about defaults.

Ok, default functionality. Can you accept that even though it
doesn't support it out of the hardcode box, the functionality can be
_added_ by mutt means with the help of basic unix tools?

 So this is pointless. Also adjusting something to someones
 personal needs is not implementing the whole feature, it is about
 setting some settings, like save-hooks, folder-hooks or whatever.

*sigh*

That's a matter of perspective.
The solution given to you is exactly that: use of muttrc commands.

  Using mutt's power which it already provides before hardcoding
  features (mistaken as adding, because it is already possible).
 
 Arrgh. After about 100 mails about this topic (and with several
 _different_ posters describing to you the same thing) you have not
 understood that mutt does _not_ have the requested feature.

You exaggerate: significantly  100, and IIRC it was only you and
Derek.
It stands to define what support a feature means with a highly
flexible tool like mutt. You (and Derek) seem to take it differently
than several others here.
However, I never denied there is a difference in convenience,
although only at the beginning to implement it once, not to use it
everyday once you source the finished solution.

  of functionality into mutt that wasn't assumed to be part of

 We are not talking about this, in _this_ discussion.

Yes, we are, because you want a little bit, while all the other
likewise only want a little bit. Why is your little bit more useful,
wider used, qualifies in any sense more than any of the others?

 No. It is not important to _me_. It is important, because it is
 wideley used in business environments and supported by _every_ mua
 used in business environments, which makes it potentially used,
 which makes it important if you want to communicate with other
 people having the feature. You can only make assumptions about how
 many use return receipts in the real world, so you cannot use
 numbers to figure who actually uses is and so you need to rely on
 the fact that it is there in every mua and _could_ be used.

- every mua used in business, that would be which?
Lotus, OL, TB, what else?

- again, likewise all other wannabe inclusion candidates _could_ be
used, and some more likely, still they are not in.

- if there were no other way, then let it be.
- if it's just convenience ... compare with other candidates.

  mail users I'm unsure people _willingly_ use that feature
  because they see a gain in their everyday usecase rather than
  being a preset default, not caring enough to change.
 
 Ehh. It is not a default. In _no_ known mail client. It is an
 opt-in feature. Always. Even if it could nag you with a message,
 you must not click Yes to send the message.

No, I mean on the sender side, producing them.

 We are not talking about TOFU posting, so this is pointless. But
 if you feel annoyed by return receipts then don't use them. The

 people, that are writing TOFU, to get back to your example.

The problem with TOFU, HTML and RR (return-receipts) is not solved
for me when _I_ stop using it! The problem exists because others
sending to me find it's easy to produce it and don't give a ...
about what I think about it (before I can tell them, but worse even
thereafter).

When it's easy to get by, it becomes a quasi standard, and I can't
do anything about it. So I have to step in early before it becomes a
standard, by not making it too easy, so only those really needing it
diehard would implement it for themselves.

  It's not that I don't want it to, but because users' demands are
  too different to be satisfied all by a single tool.
 
 Right. But if you can't support *everything* you should support
 the smallest supported subset + the things _you_ (as developer)
 want to support.

Exactly, but this we don't know yet, since they haven't declared
their policy officially so far.

Right, that's why I gave solutions.

  And this total effect can be bad despite all the partial good

 This also is not a reason not to do something... It is, however, a
 good reason not to do something badly. Integrating support for
 this feature into Mutt is, from the user's standpoint,
 unquestionably the better way than relying on hacks which are not
 well-implemented or poorly integrated into Mutt.

Remeber the mh solution?
Actually, if mutt were a complete CORBA constructable tool, I'd be
happy with it letting everybody construct it's components as
desired, all hardcoded if you prefer.
That is, if CORBA were anywhere practicable or in wide use.

 That's not the point at all. The point is that the feature being
 missing in Mutt is forcing some people who use Mutt in business,
 and want to continue to do so, to move to something else, because
 the features they NEED -- features supported by virtually every
 other mailer in the known universe -- are missing from Mutt.

Ok, they _are_ missing, until somebody implements my (and other
mutters') suggestions.

 Some of those users might be willing and able to implement the
 needed functionality themselves... But you would (obviously) be
 surprised by the number of people who use Mutt who can not or
 don't want to.

Can not: why? Once the solution is published, simply source.
Want not: tough luck for them, no loss when they switch.

 They exist so that the receiver can say, I know you saw my
 e-mail, I have the return receipt. It's about accountability...
 it's the same reason the post office offers registered/certified
 mail. Mail (both kinds) is inherently unreliable -- you send off
 your e-mail, and you have no way to know if the recipient actually
 received it... unless they're using some return receipt feature.
 Then, the recipient can not say, hey, I never received your
 mail. The sender has proof that he did.

... if this were about legal cases, easy forging such
return-receipts makes it vulnerable, you'd need more for that.
 But then DSN and server logfiles do the same service.

 MUTT DOES NOT HAVE RETURN RECEIPT SUPPORT.  Mutt has support for
 letting the user customize and extend mutt in a variety of ways.  This
 is very much NOT the same thing as having return receipt support.

Has mutt complete ssl and curses support? Is relying on external
binary libs any better than relying on external unix tools?

 It means it's already there, waiting for the user to use it. If it
 requires the user to code logic (as opposed to simply turning on
 settings), then it is not supported.

source path-to/contrib/rr.mutt

done
That's how it works with pgp, too.

 On an individual (per-solution) basis, it needs roughly as much
 maintenance as it would need if it were implemented in Mutt directly;

Right, so this no reason to switch to hardcode.

 But, your method will not require just 2 or 3 developers to
 maintain it... instead it will require hundreds or perhaps
 thousands of users to maintain it individually.

Uh, when you have to upgrade the mutt binary for RR, this isn't
anything less of a burden than to adjust a little source'ed script
included in /contrib.

 This discussion is not about those features. It's about return
 receipts. Decisions about whether to add a feature can only
 logically be made on a case-by-case basis.
 Discussions about drawing lines are pointless and fruitless. From
 the standpoint of the user, none of your arguments against
 allowing this feature to be added to mutt are compelling.

By this line all other features should be included, too.
Definitely a no-go.
Once you look at every individual case isolatedly, mutt will
eventually become a cross-breed clone of all the other bulky
software out there: Lotus, OL, TB, Pine all in one.

 You haven't come up with a single technical or logical reason
 besides this why Mutt shouldn't have this feature.

You've nailed it: there is more to coding than just code.

 It appears that the only valid concern you have is that you simply
 don't like the feature. But this is not a defensible reason for

 Due to a bug in the conversion from CVS, this may not give you the

 hg update -C HEAD

Thanks, that updated 124 files.

But, now the counts are never shown :-(

I just built 1.4.2.3 and that works fine.  1.5.16 doesn't.

Thanks,

 Since I couldn't find one I created Mutt Quick Reference v1.0 (PDF file) 
 especially useful for new users.
 It is just two pages reference and looks best when you print it on a
 Color Printer.
 
 I wanted to add a link to MuttWiki but I think it is locked.
 Anyhow, you can view it and download it from:
 http://www.sys-concept.com/Mutt-Quick-Reference-Letter.pdf (Letter 
 format)
 http://www.sys-concept.com/Mutt-Quick-Reference-A4.pdf (A4
 format
 
 Most information I collectd from Mutt manual. 
 If you would like me to add/expand some entires with additional 
 information just let me know.
 eg. under Patterns there is: 
 ~d [MIN]-[MAX] messages with ``date-sent'' in a Date range
 
 I've added:
 Dates must be in DD/MM/YY format (month and year are optional, 
 defaulting to the current month and year).eg.~d 20/1/95-31/10; -DD/MM/YY 
 all messages before the given date will be selected; DD/MM/YY- all 
 messages after the given date will be selected. You can add error 
 margins to absolute dates. An error margin is a sign (+ or ? or * = + - 
 or   =), followed by a digit, followed by one of the following units: 
 y years; m months; w weeks; d days

Thank you for this excellent reference card.

I know nothing of them but the following site seems to act as an
unofficial repository for quality reference cards such as yours and it
appears they don't have one for mutt.

In order to give your reference card maximum exposure it might be worth
contacting them and finding out if their policies in terms of copyright
etc. are compatible with your organization?

Thanks,

Nice work. Now we need someone who could bring a subset of the
Reference Card onto a coffee mug. I've already have one for the most
used 'vi' commands which was sold for ~10 euros years ago :-)

Thx
