Subject: mutt: Screen left in strange mode when piping mail with unknown
mime-types
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2004 23:11:31 -0500
If viewing a mail with implicit_autoview enabled,
and the mime-type of an attachment is not in mailcap,
and you pipe the mail to /bin/less,
the screen is left in a strange state.
If I had to guess, without having the time to look into it further at
the moment, I'd say that printing the "mailcap entry for type .. not
found" message is interfering with less's termcap initialization.
Attached is a sample muttrc and e-mail. View with
mutt -F muttrc -funknown
and from within Mutt type
|less
It may take a few tries for get the screen to get funky.
