I poked around in the archives and found a simple recipe for saving old messages that could be run from a command line/script. My version of this became:
#!/bin/sh mutt -nz -F $HOME/.mutt/mutt.archiving -f test-folder -e "push 'T~d -01/01/02 ;s archivetest q'" but it isn't *quite* working. The file to which the messages are written isn't archivetest but rather archivetest prepended with the user address from the first selected message. I tried turning the various variables associated with filenames off (in mutt.archiving): unset save_name unset force_name unhook * set default_hook = "" but that didn't make any difference. What is the trivial thing I am missing here? Rich
