| Hi there,
| 
| I started playing with hooks, and can't get one thing to work:
| 
| Let's say I want to have a different signature when mailing/replying to
| [EMAIL PROTECTED] I put this in my .muttrc:
| 
| send-hook . 'set signature = ~/bin/signature|'
| send-hook '~e john@doe\\.com' 'set signature="FUBAR"'
| 
| When I start mutt with this config, and locate a mail from john doe with
|     /~e john@doe\.com
| (i. e. the pattern matches), and hit r, I get the regular signature, not
| the customized one. 
| 
| What ad I doing wrong?

Spotted in TFM:

~e EXPR         message which contains EXPR in the ``Sender'' field

In your scenario, John Doe isn't the sender, *you* are the sender.
John Doe was the sender of the mail you received from him, but since
you're replying, there is a new message, which contains John Doe as
recipient, not as sender.

You'll probably want one of these: ~C, ~c or ~t.

HTH,
