conflicting date format with attribution

2009-08-19 Thread steve
Hi list,

I have

set date_format=%a %d %b %y
set index_format%4C %c %D %s

which is ok for the index. Now when I reply to a message, I would like
to have the attribution specially set, something like (in French) this:

Le mardi 18 août 2009, John Dow (j...@example.com) a écrit :

So full day name and full month name.

So I tried:

set attribution=Le %d, %n (%a) a écrit :\n

But I then get short names for day and month. I tried other
combinations. Now my question is simple, how can I have one $date_format
for the index view and another *different* one for the attribution?

Thanks in advance,
steve

So set it explicitly, like this:

 set attribution=Le %{%A %d %B %Y}, %n (%a) a écrit :\n

Note the %{} construction.

Colors in quoted *replies*

Hi list,

I have colors when I read a message, but not when I'm replying to it.

How can I get this?

Thanks in advance,

Get a better text editor (or learn how to use the one you've got).

(I prefer vim, some folks prefer emacs, and there are several other 
good ones out there.)

I just realized that when replying it's the editor which is displaing
the text, not mutt...

Well then, it's simply a matter of adding the following line to your

Re: couldn't save certificate

 I think that may be just what Dale needs.  On Fedora, the path to the

 on Debian, is provided by the ca-certificates package.
 
 The 'couldn't save certificate' error message could probably be
 improved. ;)
 
Hello List:

First, I appologize for my bad netiquette in replying directly to an individual 
instead of the full list.  I now have subscribe mutt-users in my .muttrc file 
and know how to use the reply to list command.

I'll probably commit other crimes against Cybermanity as I am rather thick and 
do not learn as quickly as I should.  Please feel free to chastise me as 
necessary.  Even old goats such as myself learn eventually.

I replaced the original path to my certificates file and put the path given in 
its place.  I now have no annoying error messages and Mutt works as it should.  
I did a rm -rf to my original certificates file and said good-bye to it.

So, in a Muttshell, (I know, bad pun), you guys figured it out and steered me 
in the right direction.  Now, I really did read the Fine Manual, but I did not 
see this little tidbit in there.   Then again, I'm getting older and my 
eyesight is not what it once was.

Thank you all very much.
