I'm trying to set up a macro to pipe mail through the oh-so-spiffy spam.pl program (spam.sourceforge.net). This is what I have defined: macro index \Cs "<pipe-message>spam.pl<enter> If I call it manually from within mutt via the "|" command, it works fine. spam.pl prompts me to hit a key to continue and I drop back in to mutt. If, however, I call it from the macro shown above, mutt locks up completely. There does not appear to be a perl process running anywhere, so I don't think it's actually the external script that's locking up. Any suggestions?
