Procmail and Mutt

1999-10-09 Thread Sean Rima

Hi Folks,

I am trying to setup Procmail to store mail from certain lists to a file in
my Mutt Mail/ directory and I have listed both in muttrc as mailboxes !
=elebbs-linux. But the =elebbs-linux never gets checked unless I do it
manually. Unless I am doing something wrong with Procmail.

Procmail/Mutt

1999-10-09 Thread Sean Rima

Thanks to Telsa and others who mailed me privately. I have now really sorted
this out. I discovered that if I copied a mail to a mailbox that I wanted
Mutt to watch, ie =IN.mutt-users which doesn't exist and then get procmail
to move new mail to Mail/IN.mutt-users/new then mutt notifies me that there
is mail.

Haven't tried what would happen if there is mail in two or more boxes yet :)

how to play a soundfile for incoming mail?

1999-10-09 Thread Jan Houtsma

Is it possible to play a soundfile when email comes in.

Even more can i play a different sound for each mailbox that
i have listed in my .muttrc?

thanks,

jan

After deleting tagged messages, can't delete single ones

1999-10-09 Thread Telsa

I do seem to come up with the weird ones :)

In an effort to trim an over-large folder, I did this:

'T' '~s some-word' ';' 'd'

ie, tag all messages matching some-word in the subject and then
delete the lot of them.

This worked fine. Then I decided to delete some more. Moving the
cursor up and down the list of messages was fine, but hitting 'd'
for delete did nothing. Tagging more messages by subject contents 
and using ';' and 'd' again removed that set of tagged messages,
but after that, I still couldn't just hit 'd' to delete any more.

I realise that using D and then entering the pattern would have been 
the more sensible approach, but I (of course) forgot about that at 
the time. Doing it via D works equally well at deleting them (faster, 
come to think of it, since 'D' '~s some-word' is a whole two characters 
shorter :)) and this time you can still use 'd' to delete single 
messages.

But am I doing something wrong in the first instance?

The only reason why I think Mutt would behave like that is if you
have auto_tag set (if any messages are tagged, apply any commands
to them instead of the current message).  Deleting tagged messages
does not un-tag them (I've sometimes gotten bitten by that myself).
If you don't have auto_tag set, then it's pretty weird.

Random sigs aren't compiled into mutt, but are easy to get with an external
script.  See http://astro.utoronto.ca/~reid/mutt/

Emacs mutt mode

1999-10-09 Thread Rob Reid

Hi,

First I'd like to announce that Roland Rosenfeld has dramatically improved post
mode's handling of quoted text.  It now allows quoting and unquoting regions,
and different highlighting for doubly quoted and multiply quoted text.  You can
get it at http://astro.utoronto.ca/~reid/mutt/post.el.gz  (PGP 2.6.3 .sig in
same directory).

Now on to getting it to pop up a new frame:

I don't use gnuclient, so I can't/won't say or do much about it.  But the info
node for emacsclient says:

"If you set the variable `server-window' to a window or a frame, `C-x #'
displays the server buffer in that window or in that frame."

So I recommend using emacsclient and fiddling with server-window, but I haven't
tried it myself.  Let us know how it goes.

HTH,

Rob

folder problem

1999-10-09 Thread Walter Hofmann

Hi,

When I open a folder with a number on new messages in it, mutt puts the
cursor on the first new message. This is fine, but often this message is
the last line on the index screen and I need to scroll down to see the
other new messages. 

I'm looking for a setting or a keyboard macro so that mutt still
highlights the first new message, but scrolls it up so that I can see
the other new messages as well (if at all possible). Any ideas?

Walter
