Hi, I admin a box a number of people use for shell access and reading email.
I've installed w3m, gpg, and mutt. I use the default Muttrc, but include Muttrc.local, which has this: set mbox_type=Maildir set folder="~/Maildir" set mask="!^\\.[^.]" set mbox="+.read" set record="+.sent" set postponed="+.postponed" set spoolfile="~/Maildir/inbox" auto_view text/html set editor=nano source /usr/local/share/examples/mutt/gpg.rc Also, the default mailcap has: text/html; w3m %s; nametemplate=%s.html text/html; w3m -dump %s; nametemplate=%s.html; copiousoutput Are there any other system-wide settings that I should consider configuring for my users? I'm interested in giving them a functional, useful, relatively secure configuration out of the box, but without enabling any features that they may want to disable but couldn't. So far it seems pretty easy for users to "undo" any config changes I make, with few exceptions. In particular, viewing HTML emails is a pain. The w3m -dump won't let you browse, and viewing images is obviously impossible. Also, attachments are a pain; you can't save locally. I will add another box with IMAP support, but I've seen a number of people who try to brute-force account passwords through POP/IMAP and I don't want this happening on this box (we use only key-based authentication with SSH). -- https://www.subspacefield.org/~travis/ I need a better strategy for being less analytical. For a good time on my email blacklist, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
