I am using Mutt-patched from the Ubuntu repository (Yes, I am one of the
unwashed.)
Anyway, it works really well except that if a url extends to multiple lines,

This looks really great, but where do I put the script?

Try this. It's brilliant.
Hi Guys,
I guess I'm the slow one on the list.
Is there more to the patch than commenting out
# $command =~ s/%s/'$url'/g;
and replacing it with
$command=~s/&/\\&/g
Because either way, extract_url.pl isn't working for me.
I can see the list of urls, but if I click on one I still get a page

Hi Guys,
I have a question that I'm sure has been asked before but due to a brain
cramp I can't find the answer.
How can I save multiple attachments to a specific folder without having to

Specifically, if I get an email with 20 images attached,
Type ';' or whatever you have the tag-prefix
command bound to, then 's'. Mutt will prompt you
for a file name, give it a directory name. When
mutt asks for confirmation, type 'a' to save all
attachments in the directory.
Thank you for the clear concise answer!

I found the answer to my questions:

This command will send a message to

John Long raises some good points. It seems pretty haphazard the way
things are now. I think I would purge Mutt and Postfix and then start over
in an orderly fashion.
Having said that, it appears after searching the web that many many people
have trouble sending mail with a GoDaddy account.
Interesting.
I see on their support web page they say:

Is there a reason you do not want to use SSL?
