Okay, a bit of history. I'm currently a Pine user and I'm considering
switching to Mutt since I have need of useable and useful PGP/GPG
handling.
I have one local machine and two remote IMAP machines, each of which have
mail folders on them. For sake of explanation, lets call them
mail.server1.com which contains INBOX, folder1 and folder2
and
mail.server2.com which contains INBOX, folder3 and folder4
Under pine, I can easily set up three mail collections as follows
folder-collections=server1 {mail.server1.com}mail/[],
server2 {mail.server2.com}mail/[],
local mail/[]
which will let me see all of the folders on the local machine, server1 and
server2 on the folder screen and transfer files between them easily. This
functionality is actually fairly important to me as it enables me to get
things I need to do done quickly.
Under mutt, I cannot seem to get this to work. I figured out that if
I 'set folder={mail.server1.com}; set imap_home_namespace=mail' I can see
the folders on server1, and if I set folder={mail.server2.com} I can see
the folders on server2. However, try as I might, I cannot seem to find a
way to get all of these folders to appear on the 'c' screen.
I spent most of today hunting around a bit in the hopes that somewhere on
the web this was documented, or that someone had implemented something
similar to pines folder collections for mutt, but so far I seem to have
hit a blank wall.
Anyone out there able to help me out?
The requirements of the solution are
a) being easily able to get a list of the folders on either machine as
well as locally, preferably all at the same time with some sort of
organization.
b) being able to easily move a message from one folder (on any machine) to
any other folder (potentially on a different machine) without having to
type in the entire imap URL or local path. IE, being in server1 in
folder1, I would love to be able to say 's folder3' and have it go to the
right place, or even (at worst) 's serv2/folder3' (ie collection/folder).
Best would be able to have something similar to pine where it let me
quickly scan through the collections and the folders within them via
something akin to the ^N/^P that pine allows.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
