Module to add mailinglist-names from the header in .muttrc
Hi, I found these days that there is a procmail-module which can do the following: o *pm-jalist.rc* -- Subroutine to extract mailing list name from message. Do you need to add new recipe to your .procmailrc every time you subscribe to new mailing list? If you do, take a look at this module, which examines the message and defines variable `LIST' to hold the mailing list name. You can use it directly to save the messages adaptively to correct folders. No more hand work and manual storing of mailing list messages. Is there something similar "no more hand work" for/in mutt? Example: Extract the mailing-list address from the header, add it in .muttrc to the mailbox and the list/subscribe feature?

Open a formular when sending mail to a special address
Hi, I often have to send mails to a address (like [EMAIL PROTECTED]) and I always use a pattern file loaded via vim. Can I please mutt to open this file when i mail to a/this special address? Example: To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Bug Rogers And then mutt should open my pattern file with vim /home/me/pattern.file.

Hi, for all who are wondering about awnsers on this list please get 'How To Ask Questions The Smart Way' by Eric S. Raymond (utfi). Here are some passages: [...] Despite this, hackers have a reputation for meeting simple questions with what looks like hostility or arrogance. It sometimes looks like we're reflexively rude to newbies and the ignorant. But this isn't really true. What we are, unapologetically, is hostile to people who seem to be unwilling to think or do their own homework before asking questions. People like that are time sinks - they take without giving back, they waste time we could have spent on another question more interesting and another person more worthy of an answer. We call people like this "losers" (and for historical reasons we sometimes spell it "lusers"). We're (largely) volunteers. We take time out of busy lives to answer questions, and at times we're overwhelmed with them. So we filter ruthlessly. In particular, we throw away questions from people who appear to be losers in order to spend our question-answering time more efficiently, on winners. If you decide to come to us for help, you don't want to be one of the losers. You don't want to seem like one, either. The best way to get a rapid and responsive answer is to ask it like a winner - to ask it like a person with smarts, confidence, and clues who just happens to need help on one particular problem. [...] On Not Reacting Like A Loser Odds are you'll screw up a few times on hacker community forums - in ways detailed in this article, or similar. And you'll be told exactly how you screwed up, possibly with colourful asides. In public. When this happens, the worst thing you can do is ## whine about the experience, claim to have been verbally assaulted, demand apologies, scream, hold your breath, threaten lawsuits, complain to people's employers, leave the toilet seat up, etc. Instead, here's what you do: Get over it. It's normal. In fact, it's healthy and appropriate. Remember: When that hacker tells you that you've screwed up, and (no matter how gruffly) tells you not to do it again, he's acting out of concern for (1) you and (2) his community. It would be much easier for him to ignore you and filter you out of his life. If you can't manage to be grateful, at least have a little dignity, don't whine, and don't expect to be treated like a fragile doll just because you're a newcomer with a theatrically hypersensitive soul and delusions of entitlement.

I tried: mbox-hook '~C mutt-users' +mutt.users but nothing is working. Is something wrong? I do not see how to handle it, how to move emails with To or Cc to folder/mbox mutt.users.
Emails to different folders
Hi, I am using mutt on SuSe 7.3 Pro to replace my Lotus Notes distribution. I managed the .muttrc file and here is my question: Am I able to move emails in different folders after they have been read? E.g. emails from the mutt-users-list should automatically moved in a folder like /home/me/mutt/user_list? Is there a possibility to set this in my .muttrc file?
