hi all, does anyone know why an email sent by netscape3 on unix is well received on my Lotus Notes client (NT4), and an email sent by mutt on the same machine isn't ? thanks,

Happy Little Vegemite

Dear Mutts, You've got one happy Mutt convert here. At least for the moment. After half a day grappling with getting things configured nicely I like it. I had two main gripes with getting Mutt going. I'll give some recommendations for how I see the user experience could be made easier. Please d

Re: lotus notes

Hi Arnaud, Here we go already, a question about sendmail setup. Or maybe not worth a try.. The reason Netscape would deliver your mail but Mutt wouldn't is that Netscape handles all parts of the message sending for you, where Mutt simply hands your message off to sendmail which is running on you

Folder Behaviour

Hi again, The folder interface is annoying me a little in Mutt and am looking for help in configuring it further. At the moment I use this macro to switch between folders: macro index M "c?\t" macro pager M "c?\t" 1. Is is possible to remove the roughly half-second wait while "Mailbox is unchan

Folder Switching

Oh and another thing I forgot to ask: 5. Would it possible to have a next-folder and previous-folder command in Mutt somewhere so I could move back and forward between folders with a single key? Also next-new-folder would be good, to go to the next folder with new mail. Actually a command to g

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

rfc 2368 style mailto: links in urlview

I was briefly inspired by the O'Reily book 'Practical Internet Groupware' and a mail oriented project I'm working on, to write this script. It handles rfc 2368 mailto: links in urlview and passes them on to the mutt command line. This sort of stuff:

It's called 1.1.7 now, and it has auth_gss.c.

This was a snafu in imap/Makefile.am. A "1.1.7" tar-ball is on it's way to the FTP archive right now. Additionally, I've dropped auth_gss.c under ftp://ftp.guug.de/pub/mutt/devel/auth_gss.c; you can download it from there. Note that this file is not added by diff-1.1.6i-1.1.7i, since the diffs
