There isn't a straightforward way of setting up *arbitrary* aliases, unfortunately. There *ARE* a limited number of pre-defined aliases. You're already using one: = to mean $folder. The character < means $record, which is usually where people store their sent messages. There are others (see http://www.mutt.org/doc/devel/manual.html#shortcuts). The rather *roundabout* way of setting up arbitrary aliases is to use the @alias notation, and define a few email aliases to get just the names you want. It's not optimal, obviously, but you should be able to use that to define "@sent" to be an alias for "=[Gmail]/Sent Mail" like so: alias sent 12345678901234567...@localhost send-hook 12345678901234567...@localhost "=[Gmail]/Sent Mail" ~Kyle - -- Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper. -- Robert Frost -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Thank you for using encryption! iEYEARECAAYFAkmUVOgACgkQBkIOoMqOI152ewCfXgk+5u2Tk79Lb9jTA01y1ocL i+IAnjFfAn3WqF+nm3VYx3FSB15PuKDK =QlTl -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
