Hi mutt users, I have a weird problem: I have an $ sign in my imap account’s password, lets say word1$word2. Whatever I put in imap_pass - it does not work. With debugging at level 5, I see:
set imap_pass = word1$word2 -> word1 #I understand this set imap_pass = word1\$word2 -> word1 set imap_pass = "word1\$word2“ -> word1 set imap_pass = 'word1\$word2‘ -> word1\\ #Really! set imap_pass = 'word1$word2‘ -> word1 But it worked before, with "word1\$word2“. I wanted to add a second IMAP account, and therefore, I moved imap_pass away from ~/.muttrc to another file and sourced it in muttrc. Mutt 1.5.23 (2014-03-12) I am pulling my hair out… https://zuttobenkyou.wordpress.com/2010/11/05/mutt-multiple-gmail-imap-setup/ (three backslashes before $) does not work either. Any hint is appreciated, Rainer
