It probably is, but mutt probably can't read or lock it.
Try
cp -p /var/mail/sean /tmp/sean
mutt -f /tmp/sean
and see what you get. If it works, then you h

Hi all!
Well, I hope this isn't so dummy...
I use procmail to filter my mails, but I have like 20 folders, like:
~/mail/Lists/PERL ~/mail/Grad/Grad-L ~/mail/Personal/Dad
and so on...
How do I make to mutt "find" my new mails? Like, I want my mutt to, when it
starts, tell me: Hey, you have mail

Just a quick question:
Is there a unix tool to convert something like this
Subject: Para =?iso-8859-1?Q?Jos=E9_Carlos_Lavalle_?=
into this
Subject: Para José Carlos Lavalle

I can't get mutt to work. For some reason,
it's saying /var/mail/sean is not a mailbox?
I don't get it, since I can cat this file,
and it has what looks like normal mail in
it.
This is on FreeBSD 4.4, if it makes any
difference.

AFAIK you can't. But at least you can colorize this in your background
color. Assume your term background is black, use

Hi,
I get quite a few text/html mails from people using OutLook, so I use
lynx to dump the output to my pager.
Now, my problem is, when I view these mails, I get some lines at the
beginning of the mail like so :
[-- Autoview using lynx -dump etc etc --]
Now, how do I prevent this from sho

In Emacs,

This assumes you're using text-mode or one of its derivatives to
