Even worse, there is no defined locking protocol for these files so
far.  So I'd suggest you don't use MH folders in any situation which
MAY involve concurrent access to the same folder.

Just out of curiosity: What's the source for 0.95.5 RPMs with the
compressed folders patch?  Is this the "vanilla" RedHat RPM?

I was careful to preserve my /etc/Muttrc and my ~/.muttrc and restored
them after the install. They correctly reflect the "pgp_v5" variable. Any
other thoughts?

No, I downloaded the RPM generated by Thomas Ribbrock. The rpm and src.rpm
are both available at www.bigfoot.com/~kaytan/tuxior.html.

vim -g/gvim problem

1999-05-25 Thread Saku Ytti

For some reason if I use gvim/vim -g as my $EDITOR I always get 'Aborted unmodified 
message.'
and vim -g opens on my screen with proper filename and it's completely empty.

This works perfectly with other programs.

Problems with long address lines

1999-05-25 Thread Eric Boehm

I am having problems with mutt-0.95.4i.

I use an external query to return a list of addresses from LDAP. I then tag
each one as I want to send the message to many people.

However, the To: line seems to hit a buffer limit and doesn't get all of the
addresses. 

Is there another/better way to send messages to a large group of people?

It would be nice if I didn't have to tag each address in order to get them all
-- there are 150 of them.

Odd hook question

1999-05-25 Thread Jeffrey Haas

I'm looking to do something resembling the following pseudo-code:

I have some arbitrary field, say sender (~e in mutt)
I want to say:

~e =~ /^(.*)@(.*)$/

if -d $2, then savehook becomes $2/$1.

Suggestions, or time to look at hacking in a feature?
(As soon as I can get autoconf to behave...)

Vim probably forks itself into the background, thinking that you must be
at a shell prompt and you want to have your prompt back so you can type
another command.  But instead, Mutt is waiting for the editor to finish,
and when it returns control back to Mutt, the file has not been touched,
so Mutt aborts, and deletes the file before gvim can really get a good
look at it.

Don't let vim background itself.

Replying with headers

1999-05-25 Thread Gerrit Holl

Hello all,
I've got a question about mutt and replying with headers. I want to see the
headers, but not all of them.

What should I do?

Same happens to me on AMIGA some times ago... gvim seems to detach from the
shell - and mutt "thinks", the editor exits. There's a flag (-x?) to tell vim
not to detach from the starting shell.
