Macro to read in external browser
I have messages I get from a couple different sources that aren't rendered well by text only browsers. I'd like to set a macro that I can use to open these messages using links2 -g, but I'm not having a lot of luck. Does anyone have a setup like this they wouldn't mind sharing? -- Cris

header cache not so useful when new messages added to Maildir?
Hello, I use mailfilter to, well, filter my mail, and it puts a copy of (much of) my incoming mail into a Maildir mailbox called received. Right now, this mailbox has nearly 700 messages, and opening it takes a long time. I started using the headercache feature to speed this up, and was initially delighted at how fast it was. But I've discovered that when the mailbox gets new messages, Mutt ignores the outdated header cache and rereads everything. Since this mailbox gets new mail often, the header cache is almost always out of date (unless I visit the mailbox twice in one session) and is actually not very helpful. Is there any way to optimize this? It seems a bit silly to need to reread all 700 messages when a single new message has been added. Is there a way to make this work better, or to get Mutt to intelligently combine the existing cache while reading in the small number of new messages?

I had used entries to view attached graphics but have never thought about using links or links -g to view html attachments.So I tried: text/html; links -g %s and it came up toggled to text mode but: text/html; links -g -force-html %s toggled it to html.

Is there a way to make this work better, or to get Mutt to intelligently combine the existing cache while reading in the small number of new messages? I'll be interested to hear the responses. I've been using hcache (why wouldn't you, right?) and have experienced something similar. However, for me it's only in boxes that are quite large, 1000's of messages, or one particularly box that I have of about 1000 messages all from the same source. Maybe it's something specific about the content/structure of those messages that causes a slowdown. I was using tokyo cabinet as my db backend, version 1.4.27. I just installed version 1.4.46 today and it is SO MUCH faster. I also upgraded mutt to the most recent source from the repository. Previously I was running whatever was in the repository about 2 months ago. I don't know if either or both of these upgrades is the root of the speed up, or if it's something else...

To alleviate it, I started using tokyo cabinet as the default backend (from gdbm). Speedup is/was truly surprising for me. For initial cache file buildup it took nearly the same time, however for subsequent updates (the case you are describing), I noticed a lot of difference, that I think distro maintainers should also start using it in their builds . Another reason which I heard on #mutt, was that using sidebar can significant slowdown in maildir reading. I am not sure of the reasons behind this but would be happy if someone clears it (or better patches it :-)).
