Locale settings and LANG
When no LC_CTYPE or LANG variable is set, mutt displays special characters like ë, é, £, correctly. But when LANG=C is set and LC_CTYPE are unset, they are not. This is a bit strange, because when LANG and LC_CTYPE are unset, programs usually use the default locale settings, which should be equal to those used when LANG=C. Or am I missing something?

unmy_hdr doesn't seem to work
Hi, I want to use folder hooks to set a reply-to in certain folders. So I have folder-hook . unmy_hdr Reply-To folder-hook special my_hdr Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] When I enter the folder special and write mail, the reply_to is set correctly to [EMAIL PROTECTED] But when I change back to another folder, reply-to stays set, which is a bit annoying. I use Mutt 1.0.1i (2000-01-18) Anyone able to reproduce this? Wouter -- Wat voor een paperclip geldt, geldt in wezen ook voor een server. - Compaq over de nieuwste ProLiant servers

Off topic: Fake bounce
Hi, I want to be able to send fake bounces. Although faking a bounce is not really what you are supposed to do with mail, there are enough cases in which this is perfectly appropriate. I guess all that is needed is a small script which reads a mail from standard input and generates a fake bounce accordingly. It could use the sendmail command to send the mail, or do talk to the smtp port. Has anyone done anything like this yet? If not, I will start working on this. I don't really have much time for it so it could take a while before I have something usable.

But when I do, it will end up in my inbox. I want to be able to just pipe it to a fake bounce script and let the sender think he spammed an e-mail address that doesn't exist. If I'm lucky, he'll remove my e-mail address from his spam list. Procmail is for filtering mail, but filtering is not the problem here. I've seen some procmail scripts that do filtering and bouncing, but I don't want that. I just want a tiny little script that only generates the fake bounce and feeds it to sendmail, nothing more, nothing less.

Different mail accounts
Hi, I have several mail accounts, for very distinct purposes. If i reply to a message, I would like From: to list the To: address of the message I replied to. Therefore, I have set reverse_name, but it doesn't seem to work. Or is reverse_name something else? Another issue is, that when I compose a message with a different From: address than the default, my default mail address is still there in the message headers. The first line of a messages lists something like From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Feb 6 13:44:43 2000 and a bit below there is a header like this Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] However, I have multiple accounts because I don't want certain people and mailing lists to spam me on my real mail address. And if my real address is still somewhere in the headers, I might as well have just one account. Am I missing something here, or should I file a bug/wishlist report? Wouter Ps.

Mutt detects new mail in old mailbox
When I browse through my mailboxes with cSpace.., one of the boxes that is supposed to have new mail doen't have new mail at all. This happens very often. When I am in that folder, mutt even sometimes explicitely tells me there's new mail in that box. For all I know, this happens only with one very small mailbox. Anyone encountered this too?

Configuring sendmail genericstable for dynamic IP [Was: Using mutt from a dynamic IP PPP connection]
I received mail from several mutt-users, who are interested in my document on how to configure the sendmail genericstable for use with dynamic ip connections. The genericstable is very useful for everyone who uses dial up internet connections and sendmail. Since it's really off topic and since other people than just mutt users could benifit from the document, I put it on the web.
