mutt imap setup: save-hook with local exact header match (not '=h foo:')
Hi All, Is there a way, in a save-hook, to match an email header with an exact string match (not a regex) when the mail being saved is from an IMAP mailbox? I am saving the messages to local mbox files, and am using both the Mutt header cache and the Mutt message cache. I would like for the exact string search to be made against data from the local caches rather than on the remote IMAP server (which is what '=h' does). Context: I am consolidating different Mutt configs into a multi-account config that accesses both local inboxes (main mail spool and other local mailboxes into which messages have been sifted) and remote IMAP inboxes. In a related effort, I am also in the process of moving some mailing list subscriptions from an account whose messages are pulled down down into the local mail spool to one in which that list traffic will be delivered to one of the IMAP accounts. My existing save-hook commands for these lists use the '=h' pattern modifier, and generally look like this: save-hook '~L "\\" =h "List-Id: "' +debian-emacsen-%[%Y].gz Those worked well when the config was using only the local mail spool, and I'm sure my intent was to have the 'List-Id:' headers match exactly. With IMAP, though, '=h' has special meaning, and the search will be performed on the IMAP server. You can force Mutt to treat EXPR as a simple string instead of a regular expression by using = instead of ~ in the pattern name. For example, =b *.* will find all messages that contain the literal string “*.*”. Simple string matches are less powerful than regular expressions but can be considerably faster. For IMAP folders, string matches =b, =B, and =h will be performed on the server instead of by fetching every message. IMAP treats =h specially: it must be of the form “header: substring” and will not partially match header names. The substring part may be omitted if you simply wish to find messages containing a particular header without regard to its value. I could rewrite the '=h' bits my save-hooks to work with '~h' regexen: save-hook '~L "\\" ~h "\\]"' +debian-emacsen-%[%Y].gz but if there's a way to say "match this specific literal header string, using only locally available data", I'd be interested in learning about it. I feel like I might be missing something obvious, but I haven't been able to find it in the manual or via web searches. Thanks, -Al -- a l a n d. s a l e w s k i ads@salewski.email salew...@att.net https://github.com/salewski
save-hook Dynamic Destination
Hello and Happy Holidays to everyone, I receive emails from a vendors support system that come from supp...@vendor.com addresses and have something similar to the following in the subject: Support Request I currently file them in a folder vendor-support/ where the cooresponds to the support request number.

Never mind, I figured out the problem myself. save-hook works fine inside of folder-hook after all :) pants.
Changing save-hook based on current folder
Hello, I'd like to change the place that mutt saves messages to based on the folder that I'm currently in, like I do with 'set' commands within folder-hooks. However, it doesn't seem that I can use save-hooks in that way. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers, pants.

patterns and fcc-save-hook
Hello, because of reading email with mutt for a long time, I've traditionally kept mail for each addressee in a separate folder. For work mail (e.g. foo@work.com) I save to =work/foo.bar. Problem is, there's quite a few of these work addresses, and I have to add each one manually to my save_hook file. Is there a way to use patters to achieve this automatically? Here's roughly what I would write it in regexp language: fcc-save-hook ([a-z\.]+)@work.com =work/\1 That syntax probably doesn't fly with mutt (or does it), but you probably get the idea. I'd like to match the part before @ and use that after =work/. Could I achieve this by somehow changing the default base folder where mutt saves email? Any other tricks to make this work? If it won't work like this I'll consider an automatic script which writes a full list of fcc-save-hooks based on our ldap server entries. *Sigh* Perhaps it's time to switch to more generic mailboxes (=work, =friends) and use limits to filter by user. Webmail, phone email and others all seem to dislike my 300+ imap folders. Mutt is one of the only mail clients which handles this well. Kind regards, Hein Zelle -- Unix is user friendly. It's just very particular about who it's friends are. Hein Zelle h...@icce.rug.nl http://www.icce.rug.nl/~hein
fcc-save-hook
I have a script that generates entries into my hooks file as follows: fcc-save-hook ~t @swypeinc\.com | ~f @swypeinc\.com +swypeinc.com Now this fails when the mail is cc'ed to me and the recipient entry appears *before* the sender's entry in the hooks file. This of course results in the file being by default saved in the mailbox of the recipient. Is there a clever way to solve this problem (without having to complicate my script to provide two entries, a ~f at the top of the file and a ~t at the bottom to enforce the precedence of ssender matching). -- - Eric Smith

[SOLVED] Need a little help with save-hook
I've been using Mutt for a few weeks. I'm impressed with the amount
of flexibility that Mutt offers, and for the most part, I've been
successful in adapting Mutt to my personal tastes. But there's one
thing that I haven't been able to get quite right, and I'm hoping one
of you can offer some insight.
I use Mutt with three different IMAP accounts. In general, I'd like
Mutt to save messages in ~/mail/messages. BUT, when using one
particular IMAP account (call it imaps://mail.example.com), I'd like
the default save folder to be imaps://mail.example.com/messages
instead.
Put it another way, I'd the default save folder to be =messages,
relative to the current value of $folder.
I've tried to do this with a combination of folder and save hooks.
My default folder-hook is
folder-hook . 'set folder=~/mail; \
set record=~/mail/messages; \
set postponed=~/mail/postponed-msgs; \
set smtp_url= ... ; \
set ssl_starttls=yes; \
set from= ... ; \
set pgp_sign_as= ...;'
(Above, ... isn't a literal string -- it just means that I've
omitted the value, since the setting doesn't seem relevant to the
discussion at hand.)
The folder-hook for the IMAP account where I'd like to have the save
folder on the IMAP server.
folder-hook imaps://m...@mail.example.com \
'set folder=imaps://m...@mail.example.com/; \
set record=imaps://m...@mail.example.com/messages; \
set smtp_url=smtp://m...@mail.example.com; \
set from= ...; \
set pgp_sign_as=...'
Finally, I have one save hook:
save-hook . =messages
This _almost_ works. If I'm *not* reading mail at
imaps://mail.example.com/, mutt offers the save folder:
Save to mailbox ('?' for list): =messages
which appends to ~/mail/messages. This is exactly what I'd like Mutt
to do.
When I read mail at imaps://mail.example.com/, Mutt offers the
following:
Save to mailbox ('?' for list): ~/mail/messages
If I change the line to
Save to mailbox: =messages
Then mutt appends saved messages to imaps://mail.example.com/messages.
Before giving the save command, I've verified that
folder=imaps://mail.example.com/.
When reading mail at imaps://mail.example.com, how can I get Mutt to
offer =messages as the default save folder, instead of
~/mail/messages? I'm sure it's something simple, but I'm just not
seeing it.
I found a way to get the behavior I was looking for: move the
save-hook into the individual folder hooks:
folder-hook . 'set folder=~/mail; \
set record=~/mail/messages; \
set postponed=~/mail/postponed-msgs; \
set smtp_url= ... ; \
set ssl_starttls=yes; \
set from= ... ; \
set pgp_sign_as= ...; \
save-hook . =messages' ## new line
folder-hook imaps://m...@mail.example.com \
'set folder=imaps://m...@mail.example.com/; \
set record=imaps://m...@mail.example.com/messages; \
set smtp_url=smtp://m...@mail.example.com; \
set from= ...; \
set pgp_sign_as=...; \
save-hook . =messages '## new line
# save-hook . =messages ## remove this line

They both would need to perform the same action: Tag all read list mail and save them to the archive for list mail, save all other read mail to the default location.

fcc-save-hook and ignoring cc:
I prefer to use a combined fcc and save hook. These are automatically generated whenever I create a new contact. However, with the Fcc: part, when it sees a Cc address, this over-rules the To: address so the mail is saved in the folder matching the rule of the Cc: address. *Not* at all what I want. Using the ~t regex breaks the save-hook part as it always saves the mails I send in my own folder and not the recipients. What is the solution? Thanks Eric
Re: save-hook-list
* Gregor Zattler [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2002-08-16 17:42]: i would be perfectly satisfied if i could see a dump of hooks, so i can debug my configuration. That's all. I don't even think such a menu would be very useful: Hooks are for automated mail handling, so there is not much sense in setting, moving, editing them... except if you could save the hook-lists and load them on startup. so all it takes is a dump of the current list to a file. then you can look at it and rearrange it with your editor :unhook * and :source file from within. sounds fine. so, developers, how about a save-hook-list command?

Re: save-hook - ~h vs ~C - patterns
* Adam Fields [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2002-06-05 19:25]: Actually, I've discovered that it is possible to set up a save-hook with a To: (or any header) match, using a pattern. Something like: save-hook ~h mutt-users@\\.mutt\\.org =mutt-users This works great! Combined with tagging threads, it makes it very fast to refile incoming messages. save-hook ~C [EMAIL PROTECTED] =mutt-users easier to read an understand - and maybe even faster limiting. Sven

fcc-save-hook settings
Hi, all -- I have some hooks that set the fcc to a particular directory so that folks from one location (church or work or school or whatnot) are stored in their own directory. They look, for instance, like fcc-save-hook 'pattern|dave|pattern' =D.D/dir1/%_%O fcc-save-hook 'pattern|sue|pattern' =D.D/dir2/%_%O This is fine when I send to Dave or to Sue alone, but this breaks down when I send to Dave *and* Sue; Sue's hook takes effect as well and mutt tries to save my fcc in =D.D/dir2/dave (instead of in dir1). Other than addressing only to Dave and getting in to the message and then adding Sue later, is there any way to get around this? I really want to have the hook only effective for the first person listed, since that's where mutt should save the copy.

save-hook on Reply-To:
Hi, mutt-users!
I got an e-mail from greetings.yahoo.com, and with this I noticed a
strange behaviour. Don't know, if this is a bug^wflea or feature, but
maybe it's interesting, though.
The interesting header lines are:
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
When saving (s) this mail, mutt's proposition is
Save to mailbox ('?' for list): =foobar
But I have a
save-hook 'foobar@' =friends/foo_bar
so I expected to save the mail to =friends/foo_bar, not to =foobar.
Ok, the man page to save-hook says: filename will be used as the
default filename if the message is From: an address matching regexp
..., and here it's the Reply-To: header line. But the default
behaviour of s seems to have the Reply-To:-fallback, so why not the
save-hook?

fcc-save-hook selection...
I use quite a few fcc-save-hooks (in mutt v1.2.5), and I've noticed something which makes them almost useless now. The Fcc: seems to be set according to the first sequential address match. This would be fine if mutt compared the fcc-save-hook to the To: field first, but it seems to consider the To: and Cc: fields equal. Which means, most of the time, my Fcc: is set according to one of the recipients in the Cc: field! I have to manually reset the Fcc: field most of the time. Does anyone have a patch or something to fix this behavior? i.e. Match on the To: field, and if if there's no match, then consider the Cc: field (and probably Bcc: after that).

Default save-hook
I have a few save-hooks set up to save my mailing list stuff into different folders. However, I'd like to set up a default save-hook that would save anything that is not caught by the other save-hooks into another directory according to the From: address. Example: if I have mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] I want this default hook to save it to =people/foo, and if it's from [EMAIL PROTECTED], it should go into =people/jester. Is it possible to do this with mutt? -Andrei The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what we share with each other when we're uncool. -- Lester Bangs, from the film 'Almost Famous'

save-hook for not just the sender?
Alright, sorry if this is an FAQ; but I did not seem to find anything about this in either the manual or the mailing list archives. I'm using mutt-1.2.5i. save-hook works perfectly alright, when filtering by the sender's address; however, I want to filter by something more than that - either the mail's subject (for mailing lists which add a token to the message subject), or by some string found in the message header (for e.g. Majordomo-run lists which may be identified by owner-listname in the header). Is there a way to do something similar to save-hook, but use an expression similar to the one used in tagging? Something like "~h owner-freebsd-bugs" or "~s BUGTRAQ"? And yes, I know I can do this with procmail and mutt's multiple inboxes support; is there an easier way though? :) Thanks in advance for any pointers to the source, the manual, the mailing list archives, or anything else which goes to show the futility of me attempting mutt configuration before lunch :) G'luck, Peter -- This sentence contradicts itself - or rather - well, no, actually it doesn't!

save-hook works, but...
Hi,
I'm running mutt 1.2.5 and I have something really odd. I have
two save hooks:
save-hook sgi.com =work
save-hook cray.com =work
My intention is to have mail from those addresses default to my work
mailbox. When I hit 's' I get the following at the bottom of the screen:
Save to mailbox ('?' for list): =work
This is what I'm expecting. However, when I hit return to actually save,
the line clears and nothing happens -- as if I aborted the save.
Yet when I hit ctrl-J instead of return, it accepts that I want to
save it to my work mailbox.
Am I trying to use this in an unexpected way? This seems really odd to me.

The problem is likely not at all related to your save-hooks. Does this
happen even with other emails, when you press s to save them? Does
entering text at other prompts work?
My guess would be that there's something wrong with your keyboard
definitions. The active keymap at that save-prompt is the editor..
Unfortunately there is no way in Mutt to view the editor keymap
definitions. :-(

I never change $record and I don't use $mbox myself, that's my excuse for confusing the two. :-) Reading the documentation on $move and $mbox, it turns out that this feature is only enabled for the spool mailbox, so apparently you can't use it to auto-save read messages for other incoming mail folders??? Although I'm not sure what would be the result if you changed $spoolfile in each folder-hook... It's easy enough to test whether the documentation is right, I haven't got the time *right now* though.
