*Maybe* it's a strange question? ;) Is that to alert her that you're reading her mail when she's in the next room? > I could use a keybinding, but I want to listen to it > immediately, no more. > > So I suppose I have to write > > `mpg123 /mp3/xxxxxxxxxxxx` > > somewhere in my .muttrc file. I'd do this with a macro. Something like: macro index <Return> "|maybeplayer; <display-message>" where maybeplayer is a shell script looks like: #!/bin/sh if grep '^From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]' >/dev/null; then mpg123 -q song.mp3 & # whatever the "quiet" option is fi It needs tweaking, but that's the basic idea, I think.
