I have set up a .mail_aliases file for mutt that looks like: alias mdevin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
In my .muttrc I have: set alias_file=$HOME/.mail_aliases source $HOME/.mail_aliases set edit_hdrs Now when I try and edit the To: Cc: Bcc: fields and press tab, mutt will not give me a list of email addresses from my file. It just tabs across the screen like tab normally does. Note: I have gotten it working if I don't set edit_hdrs and get prompted for the To: address and then press tab. But the documentation seems to suggest that it can be done as this quote points out: "To use aliases, you merely use the alias at any place in mutt where mutt prompts for addresses, such as the To: or CC: prompt. You can also enter aliases in your editor at the appropirate headers if you have the $edit_hdrs variable set." How do you get mutt to do this or can it only be done with edit_hdrs set to no? Do I need to bind the tab key somehow? Also, I haven't figured out yet how to send mail to another mailbox from within mutt. Say you use procmail to filter the debian-user mail into its own separate file and then read it with mutt. Then, say you want to transfer a message you like into your debian-tips file. How would you do this? Thanks to all those mutt users. Mark.
