I think this is true only if =foo already exists. If it doesn't, you
get a prompt asking if you want to create it. If you answer yes,
it creates a maildir format one. If you answer no, the process is
cancelled.
What I do at the moment is pipe the email to cat>foo.txt
I am going to try the other suggestions of going into the
attachments screen and piping to formail.
This problem is a very important one to me. I would like to be
able to make it easier to move between vim, my editor, and mutt.
Ideally, what I want is to be able to get from mutt the name of
the file that the email is in (I don't want to do all this
copying and piping), but the file browser doesn't allow
me to do this?
Then I can use vim's tab-completion to read in the correct file.
This is like a writer pulling out material from a pile of papers
they want to quote. It needs to be as easy as possible.
