generating mailboxes from reverse_alias
Greetings all, I apologize if you get this twice, I am not sending from my default account and the first try has been held for authorization by owner-mutt-users. My problem is that I would like to be able to generate mailboxes based on the alias I give to some one sending me a message. I have the following in my .muttrc set reverse_name set reverse_alias alias joe Joseph User <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> plus other settings which ( I think :-) are not relevant. Can I get mutt to create a default mailbox name of joe instead of 12345? TIA, ps. I have RTFM, even if I didn't understand all of it ;-) -- Frisco Rose REU Student [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well, you could define an auto-command inside your editor that filters your mail through some script gathering addresses from said fields and adding a "Notice- Requested-Upon-Delivery-To:" header composed of those to the original headers.

This is what I use, a less strict modification on someone's suggestion
probably in this list or vim list. In .vimrc:
au BufRead mutt-fluke* normal :g/^> *[-_]\{2,} *$/,/^$/-1d
gg
Notes:
1. mutt-fluke* is the pattern for temp files created by mutt,
fluke is my machine, change it to yours, or maybe you can use
'mutt-*', or dynamically get the hostname
2. the sig delimeter I use is not only dash-dash-space, also including
more than two dashes or underscores (eg. Hotmail's annoying "Get
your free email..."), will delete everything from
that line up to the first blank line, press enter in case search
fails, refresh screen and go to the first line.
If you want strictly dash-dash-space for sig delimeter:
au BufRead mutt-fluke* normal :g/^> *-- $/,/^$/-1d
gg
PS. To insert a real ^M, type Ctrl-V-M or Ctrl-V Ctrl-M.
Hope that helps,

Off-topic? Cleanup after html2txt
I use Cees van de Griend's perl script (html2txt; V 1.10) to view those pesky html messages directly from Mutt via this entry in my mailcap file: text/html; html2txt; copiousoutput Works great, except that the /tmp/html2txt..html files are never deleted. Right now I'm cleaning out the files in /tmp at shutdown via my halt.local script. Anything wrong with this approach? Has anyone else encountered this problem with html2txt?

Email client poll - Conclusion
As I brought this onto the list, tlr has asked me to post the results. http://slashdot.org/pollBooth.pl?qid=emailclient&aid=-1 Which e-mail client do you use? Elm1643 / 4% *Mutt 3115 / 8% Pine 9615 / 25% Eudora 3455 / 9% Communicator 8319 / 22% Outlook5798 / 15% Other 4758 / 12% xxx Sux 857 / 2% = Total 37560 / 97% (rounding error) One of the more interesting results IMHO is that the percentages are almost unchanged (+/- 1%) from very early in the poll. So much for advocacy :)
Re: Off-topic? Cleanup after html2txt
I believe all standard linux distro will have provide a shell script to clean up /tmp when the system boots up. If you haven't already got one, just write a little shell script to clean /tmp in /etc/init.d(in debian) or wherever yours is...

generating mailbox from reverse_alias
Greetings all, I am *very* much a newbie to mutt. First I would like to say that I found most of the documentation relatively easy, thanks to the author. My problem, perhaps a trivial one, is that I would like to be able to generate mailboxes based upon the reverse_alias of the sender. I have these in my .muttrc set reverse_name set reverse_alias alias joe Joseph User <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> plus other things that I don't think are related. I would like for the default mailbox name to be 'joe' and not '12345'. Is this possible? TIA, -- Frisco Rose REU Student [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I think this is true only if =foo already exists. If it doesn't, you get a prompt asking if you want to create it. If you answer yes, it creates a maildir format one. If you answer no, the process is cancelled. What I do at the moment is pipe the email to cat>foo.txt I am going to try the other suggestions of going into the attachments screen and piping to formail. This problem is a very important one to me. I would like to be able to make it easier to move between vim, my editor, and mutt. Ideally, what I want is to be able to get from mutt the name of the file that the email is in (I don't want to do all this copying and piping), but the file browser doesn't allow me to do this? Then I can use vim's tab-completion to read in the correct file. This is like a writer pulling out material from a pile of papers they want to quote. It needs to be as easy as possible. -- Greg Matheson The Internet from time Chinmin College, Taiwan to time claims this [EMAIL PROTECTED] address does not exist
