Well, if I fed any cookies I knew because I do not rely on dselect for
any important program like vim, mutt, openss[lh], postfix and
apache... However, I have not applied any patches to mutt.

 well, there is the option alias_format -
 but this would affect the presentation in the
 alias menu only.  i hope.  but if it *does*
 affect the creation of an alias with the
 create-alias command then it must be because
 you changed its value.  but you didn't, right?
 
All I get when grepping muttrc and my private lpr_settings:

  uccellina:~/.mutt!68 grep alias muttrc lpr_settings 
  muttrc:set reverse_alias   # use realname from reverse alias lookup
  muttrc:set sort_alias=alias
  muttrc:set alias_format=%4n %t %-12a  %r
  muttrc:set alias_file=~/.mutt/aliases  # add the Aliases here
  muttrc:source ~/.mutt/aliases  # and include all existing aliases

For sure alias_format I have not changed.

I know.  But for business use, I have been asked several times why I
had not set my Reply-To.  Finally, I got slightly mad about all these
questions.  Since I am using mutt (and do rawip list-administration,
if there was action ,-), I re-configured the appropriate send-hooks.
Take look now.

By the way, I remember when you send me some requests not to top-post
and neither to include the full messages.  There, you mentioned
something about guidelines you have written for posting to mailing
lists.  Would you mind sending me the link again, and would you mind
me including this link on the rawip homepage?

Thanks,

huh?  then why do you present mutt's prompt for the personal name?
is this merely the fictitious prompting?

 In my alias file there is only

 Why?  Has anyone any idea?

no.  it certainly does work with mutt 1.4 for me
just tested it again on your very email.  result:

  alias ruf Lukas Ruf [EMAIL PROTECTED]

so take another look at the structure of that From: line.

I checked with your email address.  Your Personal Name is proposed.

 no.  it certainly does work with mutt 1.4 for me

This results in
  alias guckes [EMAIL PROTECTED]

So, I miss your personal name?  Any idea?  Is there any format-option
for aliases somewhere?

Thanks,

alias creation out of received emails (mutt 1.4i)

2002-10-08 Thread Lukas Ruf 

Dear all,

creating aliases out of received emails creates headaches to me since
I switched to mutt 1.4i.

I do the following (-: my action, =: mutt's reaction):
- change to the email I would like to create an alias for
- press a
  (let's say to an email of Mike Miller [EMAIL PROTECTED])
= Alias as: mike.miller
- ENTER
= Address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
- ENTER
= Personal Name: 
- Mike MillerENTER
= [mike.miller = [EMAIL PROTECTED]] Accept? ([yes]/no):
- ENTER
= Save to file: /home/ruf/.mutt/aliases
- ENTER

The problem now is found that the Personal Name is 
neither proposed
nor saved when I entered it.

In my alias file there is only 
alias mike.miller [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Why?  Has anyone any idea?

Thanks in advance,

Lukas
