which axe -- the eensy-weensy micro-axe, or the dual-exhaust,

the fly expires.
but hey, if you wanna add a feature, may as well make it really
feature-rich, eh? :)

i think you could do much of this via *-hook in mutt:
send-hook debian- "~/.sig debian |"
but it would be nice to do procmail-like stuff, such as
send-hook (%LISTADDRESS?%) "~/.sig $_TO $_SUBJECT |"
or
send-hook debian-\/.* "~/.sig debian $MATCH |"
any mutt-freaks out there who have some ideas?

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #25 from Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Did you know you have MORE THAN ONE CONSOLE to use? There's six,
by default: try Control-Alt-F6 to see console six, Ctl-Alt-F3 for
console 3, and so forth. (If you don't use the X window display
system, you don't need to include the control key.) Each console
can have its own login, running its own jobs. Very handy!
