Kevin -- ...and then Kevin Coyner said... % % First, thanks to everyone so far for their help. I'm finding % Mutt challenging but fun, and with the help from this group, % it's even better.
Yay! % % Second, 3 quick questions: % % 1. Where do D (deleted) msgs go? Is there an equivalent of % trash, or am I truly out of the disneyland GUI world now and % just like using rm on files, there's no going back. With the stock version, that's the way it is. Cedric Duval has written a very nice trash folder patch, which can be found at http://cedricduval.free.fr/mutt/ or on my cocktail page at http://mutt.justpickone.org/mutt-build-cocktail for your nabbing. Now that you've built mutt once, build it again :-) Other folks have in the past whipped up some macros that bind 'd' to actually save to some other folder where you *then* really delete the messages later. % % 2. When I'm in the index mode with all mail listed and I've % marked a bunch with D, is there a keystroke command that will % flush out all of the D items so there's only N or O mail in there? You've seen the sync command in Mark's reply, I figure. % % 3. This is the question that bothers me most: Let's say I have % three email POP3 email accounts on three different ISP/domains. ... % addresses in the From header. I tried setting 'set alternates = % the other accts', but that didn't seem to do it. So some alternates is good, but not the whole story. % general guidance would be appreciated here. I'm getting the % feeling I'll need to use hooks, but I haven't quite figured all % that out yet. You want to set $reverse_name so that you will reply to a message using the address to which it was sent. If you just want to send a fresh message as a certain account, then a send-hook might help you (so that you can pick your identity based on where you're sending) or using a folder-hook and sending from that folder or, as a last resort, just having macros that change who you are with a keystroke or two. % % Thanks % Kevin % HTH & HAND :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
