Well, in the manual I'd read "send2-hook is matched every time a message is changed, either by editing it, or by using the compose menu to change its recipients or subject." I thought that might be useful, but have yet to find out. > > I've also scanned the manual for a way to use an alias or similar to > > match a group of addresses in the hook, so any pointers on that would > > also help an awful lot. > > Mutt 1.5.12. comes with address group support.

Ah, grateful thanks for that. It seemed to work with '^%C family', but then I realised that the Reply-To: header was being changed unconditionally. Even 'L' "list reply" no longer obeys: folder-hook mutt.* my_hdr Reply-To: mutt-users@mutt.org when these lines are present in .muttrc: group -group family -addr o...@example.com t...@example.com send-hook '^%C family' 'my_hdr Reply-To: m...@example.on.net' The folder-hook my_hdr is overridden before we enter the editor during compose. No conditionality at all. I'll lay my hands on a newer mutt, and try with that. > See http://dev.mutt.org/doc/manual.html#addrgroup on address groups. > > (though for 1.5.20, these counts count for 1.5.12. onwards) Thanks. I'd just been making do with /usr/share/doc/mutt/manual.txt Erik
