That works in this situation.

Re: Hooks...Done, but one problem.
Mark, et al -- It would be a kludge, but what about creating either a symlink in ~/Mail to ../folders so that you could use folder-hook =folders/funnies or a dummy subdir so that you could use folder-hook =dummy/../../folders/funnies (or any path). I haven't seen a path like "=../blah" or something else close, so this is all I can think of. As far as matching an exact folder name, I know what you mean but don't have an answer :-)/2 :-D -- David Thorburn-Gundlach * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Helping out at Pfizer http://www.bigfoot.com/~davidtg/Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!

Heh...yeah...except I strictly use ~/Mail for "received" for historical reasons, and $folder is set to ~/Mail. ~/folders is where I have procmail put all its stuff. No, I don't know why I kept them separate outside of wanting things orderly, but it shouldn't pose a problem. Someone suggested: folder-hook \~/folders/funnies 'set move=no' ...I tried that and it ONLY works if you explicitly call the folder up with ~/folders/funnies. If you're in $HOME and call "folders/funnies" or are in ~/folders and call up "funnies" it won't work. The latter I would expect, but the former should work, since the status line displays it as ~/folders/funnies. I also disturbingly found out that "funnies" will match shawn-iglou-funnies ...which isn't good. And since I just discovered that if you're in ~/folders and call mutt -f funnies that it won't match folders/funnies, that means I need to match against only "funnies" ...I tried ^funnies$ out of desperation, but it doesn't work. How do you limit the pattern to the -exact- filename? mark-> -- Fairlight-> |||[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Fairlight Consulting __/\__ ||| "I'm talking for free... | http://www.fairlite.com <__<>__> ||| It's a New Religion..." | [EMAIL PROTECTED] \/||| PGP Public Key available via finger @iglou, or Key servers

I use folder-hook =Listen/mutt- "set strict_threads" Where '=' is short for $folder which is set to ~/Mail usually And that works for me.

Hooks...Done, but one problem.
Okay...here's my setup: mbox-hook .* =received save-hook ~A =received folder-hook . 'set move=ask-yes' folder-hook folders/funnies 'set move=no' folder-hook > 'set move=no' This does EXACTLY what I wanted all along (thanks, folks!!)...-except- there's a bug. :( Note my second folder-hook. The folder is actually ~/folders/funnies. Now...if I put 'funnies' as the expr, it works. If I put 'folders/funnies', it works. If I put '~/folders/funnies' (with or without quotes), it still asks me and doesn't trigger the hook. Bug? Known explanation? My objective was to match filenames exactly, since it's been pointed out it will try to execute as many as could match... I could have 20 different "funnies" folders. I could have 20 different "folders" directories...each containing a "funnies" folder. ...and could only want ONE excluded. So why won't it match on ~/folders/funnies ?? Other than that, it's everything I wanted...I just want to practice "safe hooking"... :) mark-> -- Fairlight-> |||[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Fairlight Consulting __/\__ ||| "I'm talking for free... | http://www.fairlite.com <__<>__> ||| It's a New Religion..." | [EMAIL PROTECTED] \/||| PGP Public Key available via finger @iglou, or Key servers
