Re: muttrc problem

Using a large mallet, Dale Morris whacked out:

 I am unable to send mail. nothing goes out. there are no error messages.
 I checked the .muttrc file (search $dsn_notify and $dsn_return) and it's
 not showing in the file. ??

Maybe your exim configuration is fscked up somewhere?  This doesn't look like a
mutt problem.  See what your MTA logs say (they should be in /var/log)

Rewriting .muttrc for IMAP support

2000-07-08 Thread Erik van der Meulen

Currently I am using Mutt as local client and from remote systems with
the aid of a Telnet session. Works great. Now I would like to switch to
IMAP for remote access and I am struggling with my .muttrc because I
would like to retain functionality.
My situation:
  
  Mutt 1.2i om Debian Linux 2.2
  Mail spool in: /var/spool/mail/erik
  Mail folders in: /home/erik/mail/

In my current .muttrc I have:

  set folder="~/mail"
  mailboxes /var/spool/mail/erik
  mailboxes `echo $HOME/mail/*.incoming`

This allows my to cycle mailboxes with '=' and also gives me signals
when mail arrives in any of my mailboxes which ends with '.incoming'.
I have tried numerous ways to include reference to my IMAP server, but
never seem to get it as I used to do.

  set folder="{mail.server}mail"
  set spoolfile= {mail.server}
  mailboxes {mail.server}/var/spool/mail/erik
  mailboxes {mail.server}`echo $HOME/mail/*.incoming`
  
I have not been able to find a lot of documentation w.r.t. IMAP config
and hope someone on this list can provide a bit of help or some
pointers.

Thanks a lot.

Muttrc color question

2000-06-26 Thread Mostly Harmless

Is it possible to specify a foreground color as transparent?
Essentially, I'd like pretty much all my colors as default except for
indicator which should be reversed: foreground should be bg's default

Is this possible?

Re: problems with quotes in send-hook lines within .muttrc

 In my .muttrc, I've put a line in the way to set my editor:
 set editor="vi -c 'set wrap' -c 'set textwidth=0' -c 'set linebreak'"
 
 It works fine. But in some mailing-lists, one asked me to limit the
 length of my messages at 72 characters, because his mail reader didn't
 wrap correctly too long lines.

It's generally considered good netiquette to limit the line lengths in
mailing list and Usenet postings to 72 characters.

 I've tried to put in my muttrc one of these lines :
 
 send-hook '~t linux-bruxelles' set editor="vi +set textwidth=72"
 send-hook '~t linux-bruxelles' set editor="vi '+set textwidth=72'"
 send-hook '~t linux-bruxelles' set editor='vi +set textwidth=72'
 send-hook '~t linux-bruxelles' set editor='vi "+set textwidth=72"'
 send-hook '~t linux-bruxelles' set editor='vi "+set textwidth=72"'
 
 (this way of setting the option to vim avoids to use the
  form -c "set  textwidth=72") 
 
 but in doing so, I always get the message '+set textwidth=72 unknown option'

I don't really understand the rules, but here is one solution:

send-hook '~t linux-bruxelles' 'set editor="vi \"+set textwidth=72\""'

You may already know to do this, but just in case you don't:  You will
need to add another send-hook to reset your editor back to your
preferred settings for the other mailing lists.  Otherwise, once you
send a message to linux-bruxelles, your editor will remain
'vi "+set textwidth=72"'.  So, put a default send-hook like this
somewhere before the '~t linux-bruxelles' send-hook:

send-hook . 'set editor="vi -c \"set wrap textwidth=0 linebreak\""'

Note that you don't need a separate -c option for each setting.

Gary

Read the readme-upgrade file when upgrading from a v1.0 to 1.2.  Or post

Better, try reading up on Roessler's and Mike Elkins' muttrcs in your mutt

What do you mean with "layout"?

The .muttrc format for 1.2 is mostly compatible with that of old
versions, there's not been any major changes at least in anything
that could be considered "layout".  So in theory, there is no reason
why your .muttrc would suddenly stop working.  Any significant changes
are described in README.UPGRADE.

It could be that your terminal settings are not including any color options.

'reload .muttrc' removes parens around no-of-lines in index

2000-05-21 Thread Russell Hoover

I've noticed recently that when I'm looking at mutt's index, and I do a
'reload .muttrc', suddenly the parentheses around the number-of-lines field
disappear.  Also, a zero gets added to the date field just-to-the-left-of
the number representing days of the month consisting of a single digit.

In other words, the index goes from looking like this:

 20 r T 05/ 9   [EMAIL PROTECTED] ( 50) Re: Receipt for payment
 21  s  05/ 9   Thomas Roessler  ( 85) [Announce] mutt-1.2 is out.
 22 r + 05/ 9   Teddi Longardt   ( 10) Thank you!
 23   F 05/ 9   Russell Hoover   ( 21) Panix's Message of the Day

to looking like this:

 20 r T 05/09   [EMAIL PROTECTED]   50  Re: Receipt for payment
 21  s  05/09   Thomas Roessler85  [Announce] mutt-1.2 is out.
 22 r + 05/09   Teddi Longardt 10  Thank you!
 23   F 05/09   Russell Hoover 21  Panix's Message of the Day

If I change folders (or even 'change' into the same folder), the parens and
zeros are re-added.  I much prefer the display *without* the parens (less
cluttered) and *with* the zeros -- the display I get when do the I 're-load
.muttrc'.

My question to the list is:  How can I get the preferred display to show at
all times, not just when I reload muttrc?

I have 'reload .muttrc' mapped to ESCAPE-e:

# Reload the .muttrc with ESC e:
macro  index\ee   ":source ~/.muttrc\n""\"ESC e\" reloads the muttrc"
macro  pager\ee   ":source ~/.muttrc\n""\"ESC e\" reloads the muttrc"

and index_format set so:

# Format of the lines in the index:
  set  index_format="%3C %Z %[%m/%d]   %-20.20n  %3l  %s"

The zeros in the date (or lack thereof) would seem to have to do with
the strftime on my system, but the strftime man says:

%dis replaced by the day of the month as a decimal number [01,31].

In other words the manpage assumes that the leading zero is always already
there.

I'm using mutt-1.2i, S-Lang 1.4.1, procmail-3.14 and zsh-3.0.7 on NetBSD 1.4.2_ALPHA.

Any takers?

Sounds like you have different settings for the $index_format in a
stand-alone "set index_format" command and in folder-hooks.


My suggestion is that you should check your folder-hooks for any
commands which change $index_format.  Then make sure the format is set
to your liking in both the initial "set" and in the folder-hooks.

As for what formatting to use, you can see the value of $index_format
with:

  :set ?index_format

Or if it's too long to fit on a single line, you can do:

  :set index_format=TAB

... where TAB is a single keypress, to get the current value in the
edit buffer.  This way you can then look at the value and compare the
differences between the two versions.


Hope this helps,
Mikko

This only happens if you sent mail to s.o. who's listed in your

the pgp-autosign value when you start mutt? (:set ?pgp-autosign)

Add "send-hook . 'set pgp-autosign'" to your .mutt.personal. Note: It should
be in front of any send-hooks that alter pgp-autosign. Thus it's the
default that only get's overwritten if one of the other send-hooks
matches. And it "resets" the pgp-autosign value when sending to people

setting limit in .muttrc (was: peculiar requirement (maybe))

Hmm, doesn`t work here. Upon launching mutt, I get the error

Wouldn't it be nice to do this directly, e.g. via

Is there anyway to stop mutt reading from /etc/Muttrc.
I have my own .muttrc in the home directory, but it seems that

index is reversed on :source .muttrc

I'm wondering if this is a bug or something.  I am sorting my index by

order of my index (message list) is reversed.

If I re-read the mailbox (c ! for example) the listing returns to
normal.

Is it supposed to do this?

 Incidentally, assuming your $spool is set correctly (to ~/Mail/inbox),
 you may replace that last entry with just the '!' char.  Also, you

...and don't be put off by the huge size of them :)

What kind of Linux system do you (the original poster) have? I have
Red Hat 6.0 and there is a default muttrc in /etc/Muttrc. Mutt reads
that first, and then anything in the .muttrc in the user's home
directory, I believe. I think SuSE 6.1 puts one there, too. I don't
know about Slackware, Debian or the rest. You're welcome to my
.muttrc, although it's very boring: I took the /etc/Muttrc, copied it
to ~/.muttrc, took all the colours out, corrected all the spelling (!),
and commented it madly. I don't use pop or imap or the other things than 
crop up on this list a lot, so it will probably be all wrong for those.

Doesn't mutt come with a sample muttrc, then? If not, then rather
than directing people at the really really big and impressive ones,
wouldn't it make sense to provide a small and simple one that doesn't
have all the really nifty stuff in, just for people to get started?
We have lots of nifty ones in the wonderfully up-to-date (:)) links 
page off mutt.org; would a dead simple one be a good thing, too?

I am only now, after some months of messing with mutt, (and some
weeks of Tom explaining v-e-r-y carefully :))  beginning to
understand the big complicated muttrcs people have. I am not very
keen on some of the Red Hat 6.0 /etc/Muttrc, but it was handy that
it wasn't huge and fancy. 

I have a not-too-far-from-simple muttrc if anyone wants it. Since
Tom Gilbert beat me to making lynx key-mappings for mutt (bah!),
my next stumbling block is the scoring. I have only found one sample
muttrc on the web with sorting by score, and I didn't fully follow
the scoring because I think the user had a different sort of mailbox
thing from me.

A very busy list with fairly constant things I looked for seemed
a good one to test on, so I have this at the moment.

folder-hook . set sort=threads
folder-hook IN.cvs-commits set sort=score
folder-hook IN.cvs-commits "score '~s gnome-terminal' 1"
folder-hook IN.cvs-commits "score '~s gnome-core' 1"
folder-hook IN.cvs-commits "score '~s desktop-docs' 1"
[etc]

This works fine, as far as it goes. Anything with those in the subject
are at the top of the index. However, I can't get the index_format to
show the score, and I can't get ~B to go in the scoring where the ~s is,
which I hoped would make it so that anything at all referring to 
gnome-terminal gets bumped up the list.

Any suggestions? Either on scoring by what's in the message body, or on
getting the score to go to the left of the message number on the screen?
My current index_format is,

set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15F (%4l) %s"

Here's hoping. Thanks.

There already is one.  /usr/local/etc/Muttrc.  

That and the manual are more than enough to get you started.  Copy it to
$HOME/.muttrc and copy a line and uncomment and alter the copy to keep
track of what you've mucked about with.

And if the manual doesn't help, and you can't understand the complicated
ones elsewhere, ask here.  :)

I found the default one to be very helpful and list almost everything you
need to know, variable-wise.  More than sufficient combined with the manual
when I'm not being dense as lead.

lists setup in .muttrc

1999-07-24 Thread Frisco Rose

I just thought thatI would post this little note about a nicety of mutt.
I was setting up mutt to handle a bunch of lists that I am subscribed to
and read the docs. They stated that I was to put the name portion of the
list ( ie. the stuff before the @ symbol ) for each list I was
subscribed to. However the lists I am subscribed to all share the first
portion of the list name ( ie. debian-user, debian-devel, etc ) so I
thought that I would just place debian in my list and VIOLA! it worked.

conditionals in .muttrc

1999-07-22 Thread David Thorburn-Gundlach

Hi, folks --

I think I saw this a long time ago, but I now cannot find any such
reference in the manual or in the sample .muttrc.

Is there a way that I can test for my terminal type, like vt100, and
set some things based on that?  I'd like to "set ascii_chars" and 
"set pager_index_lines=3" when I'm using a vt100 (from home) instead
of an xterm (from work).

Note that I don't mess with color, so "mode color" and "mode mono"
probably won't do much for me anyway.


TIA

:-D

a quick but does-the-job solution is to use "source ~/.muttrc-$TERM" from
your .muttrc file. of course the files can go anywhere to avoid
"dot-clutter", and can have settings (or not) for color, etc.

you can have several plain files (.muttrc-vt100, .muttrc-xterm, etc) or
just link similar terminal names to one file...

Re: Reloading .muttrc

1999-06-27 Thread Anonymous

++ 09/06/99 16:16 -0400 - Mike Broome:
You can load your .muttrc with the command ":source .muttrc".  However,
this will not actually reload your settings.  It will load the settings
in .muttrc in top of any current settings.  For testing some changes
(especially some hooks), I've found no other solution than to quit and
restart mutt so as to get a clean .muttrc load from scratch.

If i add a send-hook for a something (say, to create From field that is
depended from what is in the Subject line), i always add a send-hook
which makes a default.

These are some of the send-hooks in my .muttrc:

send-hook . 'my_hdr From: Rejo 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
send-hook . 'my_hdr Reply-To: Rejo 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
send-hook . 'set signature=~/.signature'
send-hook '~t [EMAIL PROTECTED]'  'my_hdr From: Rejo 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
[...]
send-hook '~s Live ~s Local''my_hdr From: Live  Local 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
send-hook '~s Live ~s Local''my_hdr Reply-To: Live  Local 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
send-hook '~t [EMAIL PROTECTED]''my_hdr Reply-To: Live  Local 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
send-hook '~t [EMAIL PROTECTED]''my_hdr From: Rejo 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
send-hook '~s "spam complaint"' 'my_hdr From: Rejo 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'

So, changed Reply-To or From lines are resetted to a default with the
first two send-hooks. Order is important here.

Not what we were talking about, but i have question about the two
send-hooks with the '~s Live ~s Local' in it. It should catch all
subjects with 'Live  Local', but if i add this ampersand in the
send-hook it gets messed up. I tried various ways of escaping, but
didn't found the correct one. Does anyone know which i should use?

You can reset all variables to their default values with
":reset all" before sourcing .muttrc, but other configuration
(key bindings, macros, colors, hooks etc.) cannot be reset in a
simple way.

mailboxes in muttrc doesn't seem to work

1999-06-10 Thread Eric Boehm

Hello,

I have the following lines in my .muttrc

mailboxes +Inbox +sue +hpadmin +hp_annc +veritas +globetrotter +backups 
mailboxes +fbackup +fetchmail +perl-ldap +mutt-users +mutt-announce +daemon 
mailboxes +news_post +test +tickets

I'm not seeing any of the behavior described in the manual (below). I don't
see any update in the menubar of how many folders have new messages nor do I
see any indication in the directory browser. 

I am using mutt 0.95.5i

--
Eric M. Boehm   [EMAIL PROTECTED]


  3.10.  Defining mailboxes which receive mail

  Usage: mailboxes [!]filename [ filename ... ]

  This command specifies folders which can receive mail and which will
  be checked for new messages.  By default, the main menu status bar
  displays how many of these folders have new messages.

  When changing folders, pressing space will cycle through folders with
  new mail.

  Pressing TAB in the directory browser will bring up a menu showing the
  files specified by the mailboxes command, and indicate which contain
  new messages.  Mutt will automatically enter this mode when invoked
  from the command line with the -y option.

  Note: new mail is detected by comparing the last modification time to
  the last access time.  Utilities like biff or frm or any other program
  which accesses the mailbox might cause Mutt to never detect new mail
  for that mailbox if they do not properly reset the access time.

  Note: the filenames in the mailboxes command are resolved when the
  command is executed, so if these names contain ``shortcut characters''
  (such as ``='' and ``!''), any variable definition that affect these
  characters (like ``$folder'' and ``$spool'') should be executed before
  the mailboxes command.

Ditto.  This would be cool, and if it doesnt have this feature, adding

 Does mutt have a facility to reload its settings from .muttrc without
 quitting and re-running it?

I have this in my .muttrc, probably from looking at the .muttrc Roland
Rosenfeld has on his page.

macro index \er   ":source ~/.muttrc\n" # reload muttrc
macro pager \er   ":source ~/.muttrc\n" # reload muttrc

Of course, you don't need it macroed, just do ":source ~/.muttrc" in
mutt (i.e. right after you've pasted the macros into .muttrc).

Depends on what you've changed.

 I sometimes want to make a change while I'm busy working through my
 mail and don't always want to leave it until I've finished reading my
 mail.

Most of the time, I'm making a one-line change to the file, and I simple
cut-n-paste the new command at the ":" prompt in Mutt.  Then I can see
what effect the change has.

If you're modifying send-hooks, though, there isn't any un-send-hook
command that I'm aware of, so it's difficult to remove and reapply them
without restarting Mutt.

Put the following line in your .muttrc and you can reload the .muttrc
with ESC r whenever you want.

macro   index   \er ":source ~/.muttrc\n" "Reload muttrc"
macro   pager   \er     ":source ~/.muttrc\n" "Reload muttrc"

How do I include "" (literal quotes) in a string in muttrc which has
to be delimited with "" ?

In manual.txt, 3.1, Syntax of initialization files:

  \ quotes the next character, just as in shells such as bash and zsh.
  For example, if want to put quotes ``"'' inside of a string, you can
  use ``\'' to force the next character to be a literal instead of
  interpreted character.

  set realname="Michael \"MuttDude\" Elkins"

That's all you need i guess... [1]
