Greetings. I've been using a pre-compiled copy of mutt 1.4.2.3i . I use MH as my underlying email system. My .muttrc includes these two lines..
set folder=/home/hymie/Mail/inbox set mbox=/home/hymie/Mail/inbox ...one of which allowed me to view my new incoming email, and then when I exit mutt, I would get asked... Move read messages to /home/hymie/Mail/inbox? ([no]/yes): ...and I would answer "yes" and the email would be dropped in my "inbox" folder in MH format. I just upgraded to a compiled-by-me version of 1.5.24, and this no longer happens. I read my new incoming email, and when I exit, mutt just exits and leaves my email in the incoming mail spool. So I assume I'm missing either a new entry in .muttrc or a compile option. I found this in the source code mx.c ine 835-ish if (isSpool && *mbox) { mutt_expand_path (mbox, sizeof (mbox)); snprintf (buf, sizeof (buf), _("Move read messages to %s?"), mbox); if ((move_messages = query_quadoption (OPT_MOVE, buf)) == -1) { ctx->closing = 0; return (-1); } } but I don't know why this isn't happening. Any help would be appreciated. --hymie! http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymie hy...@lactose.homelinux.net
