I tried enscript instead of muttprint and the output is the same. So based on that I tried to print a file from the command line with lpr and it was not successful. So as far as I am concerned this is not a pretty print program problem, but instead the issue is command line printing in general (Ubuntu Lucid). Still researching -- Chuck Smith

Muttprint
I need help getting muttprint set up. Whenever I try to print I get an error message that states: cannot remove path cwd /tmp/muttprint-HCDIDH for /tmp/muttprint-HCDIDH Any ideas? I have configured muttprint using this tutorial: http://heelsbroke.wordpress.com/category/muttprint/ The only difference is that I have substituted kghostview with ghostscript ...

External Address Book
Just curious. Has anyone tried Goobook? http://pypi.python.org/pypi/goobook/1.3a1 It uses Gmail Contacts for your external addressbook. I have been using just a few minutes and so far it is really cool. I have been looking for a way to sync Gmail Contacts with an addressbook database for Mutt but so far this is way better.

That was enough information that set me on the right track. I ended up using: macro index,pager s "?" Works beautifully. I need to learn more about macros to streamline my work flow.

Moving Messages
Okay I have been using Mutt for a few months with Gmail and love it! I have a very simple question. When I move a message I use the shortcut 's' and then I have to enter '?' to get to the list of Gmail labels. Is there anyway to silence that annoying '?' and go straight to the list? -- Chuck Smith signature.asc Description: Digital signature
Attachment and Gmail IMAP
How do I attach a local file to an outgoing message using Mutt with a Gmail IMAP account? I have used Offlineimap for a month or so and could attach a file without any issues, but recently I have moved away from Offlineimap in favor of connecting to my Gmail IMAP account. Whenever I try to attach a file, select ? to pick a file, the only locations that are accessible are my folders in my Gmail account. How do I easily select a local file from my hard drive? -- Chuck Smith signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Look at the Mutt User Manual in the section on PGP: http://wiki.mutt.org/?MuttGuide/UseGPG Look carefully at the this command: set pgp_encrypt_sign_command="pgpewrap gpg --passphrase-fd 0 --batch --quiet --no-verbose --textmode --output - --encrypt --sign %?a?-u %a? --armor --always-trust --encrypt-to 0xC9C40C31 -- -r %r -- %f" Notice the --encrypt-to portion.

VIM Color Syntax
I know this is a little off topic for this list, but my latest update from Ubuntu resulted in color syntax in vim for reply messages in Mutt to disappear. Now everything is the default console green. Any ideas? -- Chuck Smith signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I agree but the added benefit of offlineimap is that first of all you will have a local copy of all your mail. Redunancy is always a good idea. Secondly, you will not have any of the normal network delays. Everything is stored locally, send with msmtp, and synced with the remote server via a cron job. I personally love it. I know this is not what you had it mind, but create a new profile and just give it a whirl. -- Chuck Smith

Strange Characters
This is my first week of using MUtt and so far I love it! I have been doing a lot of reading and configuring and clearly can see the power of the Mutt. I have a interesting displying issue that I would like to sort out but it appears to only come from my one persons e-mail address from MS Exchange 6.5 Mailer. For some reason, other than its Microsoft, the is a character ( ^M ) at the end of each line. I am assuming it is a hard return. I have saved the message in a text file (US-ASCII) and the characters do not exist. I am curious where this character comes from and if there is any way to have Mutt hide it or filter it out. -- Chuck Smith Ubuntu 9.10 (Linux 2.6.31-19-generic-pae (i686)) Mutt patch-1.5.13.cd.ifdef.2
