No. But your MTA may have such a function.

I would put a line like

in my local /etc/hosts file (or ask the system administrator to
do it). Many systems search this file before trying a DNS lookup,
but it is a matter of configuration and it is system dependent.

Colour loss when running via an exec command...

2000-01-20 Thread Jamie Novak

Hi, folks,

I've got a problem that I can't seem to figure out and was wondering if
anyone had any input.  What I'm basically hoping to be able to do is, in
Xwindows, have an option for mutt in my menu that looks like this:

Eterm --trans --shade "40%" -T Mutt -n "Electronic Mail" -e mutt

Basically, just click the menu and have mutt open up in an Eterm with my
transparency preferences, rather than having to open an Eterm and type
mutt.  (Oh, I'm so lazy!)

What happens, though, is that mutt defaults to a monochrome colour
scheme when I open it via an exec like that.  (It does the same for rxvt
terms, etc., as well.)

Does anyone know how to get around this?  It's rather annoying.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

- Jamie

I do something similar and never had any problems.  Are you running in 8 bit
color and running out of colors, perhaps?  If not, try compiling with SLang and
setting COLORTERM and COLORFGBG.

ansi colors without X

2000-01-20 Thread Eugene Lee

I have the latest version of Mutt on my FreeBSD 3.3 system.  It works
fine, except that color support doesn't seem to work.  I don't have X
on the system.  But I continue to get these messages:

Error in /usr/home/eugene/.muttrc, line 2: default: no such color
Error in /usr/home/eugene/.muttrc, line 3: default: no such color
Error in /usr/home/eugene/.muttrc, line 4: default: no such color

The offending lines in my .muttrc are:

color quoted green default
color hdrdefault blue default
color header magenta default ^(Subject|To|Date|From):

Here's the pertinent verbose info:

Please correct me if I'm wrong, I think you need to compile aginst the

Hi,
This is a guess, since I've never used FreeBSD 3.3, but maybe your
version of ncurses is too old.  I'm not too sure what version of ncurses
that the default color stuff first appeared.  Try changing the default to
an actual color in the 3 lines in your .muttrc and see if the errors go away.

The latest versions of ncurses do allow the use of the color "default",
and Mutt will work with this.  So upgrading to Slang or upgrading
ncurses will do the trick.

But it doesn't when you start it up in another Eterm?

I'm guessing that the problem is that some environment variables or
something like that are set different for the Eterm you start using
that "email" button/menu option, as compared to when you start a
"regular Eterm".  Check out the environments...  You may need a wrapper
shell script or something like that.

can't filter sent emails to sent box

2000-01-20 Thread Jason Helfman

I am very new to mutt, and by emailing back and forth with fellow mutt
users, documentation and the like, I am unable to figure out -- based on
my .muttrc file --- why email I send out want to go to the record of the
name it is sent to...for instance, if i send an email to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

mutt will want to create a mailbox for whatever...if I don't create the
box, mail isn't sent

I have specified in my muttrc file to, can't recall the syntax..i'm
attaching the file itself, something to the extent of "set record=+sent"

I would just like all sent email to be Fcc'd to sent, that is all, I am
sure I am going to have this down pat in a few months, and hopefully I
can help out other new mutters...

folder-hooks, (un)ignore, and From_

2000-01-20 Thread Greg Matheson

I'm having a problem with folder hooks in which I have (un)ignore
commands for From_ headers. After unignoring the From_ header in
one mailbox, I can't ignore it in others. The reason I want to
see the From_ line is that I am using mutt to read my procmail
log.  This file has for each delivered email an entry showing the
`From ' and `Subject:' fields of the header and some other stuff. 

I wrote for .procmail/log:

folder-hook procmail/log'unignore "from "'

And this works. 

But because this is not turned off when you change to another
mailbox, there has to be a default 

folder-hook .   'ignore "from "'

And this works placed ahead of the other folder-hook in my
.muttrc when I first enter mutt. 

The problem is after I have changed to .procmail/log, and then to
another mailbox, it doesn't work. I get both From_ and From: lines. 

The ignore lines in my .muttrc:
> # default list of header fields to weed when displaying
> #
> ignore "from " received content- mime-version status x-status message-id
> ignore sender references return-path lines x-mailer priority precedence

Use the function "previous-new". It is default unbound, but you

I know this is kind of a vague question, but I guess what I'm looking for is

I don't know about a known buglist...  Mutt doesn't have bugs. ;-)
(j/k!)  But, for starters, your could describe what happens when you
try to view one of these "nondisplaying" messages in Mutt?  What do
you see on the screen?

Second, in the case that this is a "weird MIME type", can you view
the message if you pipe it to some external program, such as less?
You can do this by typing "|less".  If you don't have "less"
installed, you can use the "more" program.  With either of those,
you will then be able to see the "raw" message contents.

Third, for these non-displaying messages, what do you see when you press
"v" (which shows you a list of the message components/attachements)?
Particularly, what does the attachment info at the right edge say?
For normal text it should be text/plain.


Hopefully these will get you in the right track of solving the problem,
or at least give us more info to work with.

I remember reading somewhere that you can't (re-)ignore a header which
you have unignored.  I'm not positive if that's so, but if yes, then
this is probably the source of your problem.

Well, there's one you can find by poking around www.mutt.org. It's
http://www.math.fu-berlin.de/~guckes/mutt/bugs.html -- but it was
last updated six months ago. The most recent entries are for 
mutt 0.96.3. There's been quite a few versions since then :)

I would try reading it with other mailers, and try saving it and
seeing whether I can use a pager like 'more' on it. If, from the
index, you hit 'v' to view attachments, it should tell you what
MIME types the attachments are, too. Checking your mimetypes file(s),
both system (eg, perhaps /etc/mime.types) and local (I don't bother so
I forget what most people call this one) might throw something up.
If you don't have an entry for that particular mimetype, there are
pages (again, from www.mutt.org) which have sample mimetypes which
are huge. You might find a suitable entry in those.

Does 'unable to read' mean you get a message about it being 
unsupported, or you view something that looks like random ASCII
garbage, or what?

Mutt + colors

black on cyan, however ncurses (version 4.2) for some strange reason
outputs \e[0;10;1m\e[30m;\e[46m (reset everything, set bold, set
foreground to black and background to cyan), making it look like
`brightblack cyan'.  Is this a bug in mutt (e.g. not specificallty
resetting A_BOLD which was set by a previous attrset?), or a bug in
ncurses (or maybe in terminfo?)?

Note that the preceding sequences are \e[0;10m\e[?25l\e[H (reset
everything, make cursor invisible, move cursor to 1,1), so bold is
turned on purposedly just for displaying help line.

Note that this affects both help and status line in the index, and only
help in the pager.  Status line in the pager displays normal black on
cyan.

This occurs both on the linux console and Eterm.

Other colors seem to work as expected (with ncurses; there's a wholy
different story with slang...).

Re: folder-hooks, (un)ignore, and From_

It might help to upgrade to Mutt 1.0.1. There have been some
fixes to ignore/unignore which make them
work better.

However don't trust the manual about this topic. Header weeding
functions this way:

Mutt stores internally two lists: the ignore list and the
unignore list. A header is ignored if and only if it matches the
ignore list and doesn't match the unignore list.

So if you have these commands:

ignore x-
unignore x-mailer

you will see x-mailer headers because it matches the unignore
list. The manual says otherwise but is wrong.

The ignore command adds its arguments to the ignore list and
removes them from the unignore list if they are there.

The unignore command adds its arguments to the unignore list and
removes them from the ignore list if they are there. 

Except "unignore *" that just removes "*" from the ignore list
if it is there, and else does nothing -- it doesn't remove all
tokens from the ignore list as the manual says.

How may I set mutt to prompt for an Fcc in the case that there is no Fcc
hook or rule already?

There is no such prompt for Fcc.
Workaround:  Set a default fcc-hook.

new to mutt, very new, one question for now

2000-01-20 Thread Jason Helfman

I love this program. I am using the .muttrc with some tweaks that I
found off the mutt.org page, I have procmail and fetchmail working
lovely, but everytime I send a msg, Mutt wants to create a mailbox for
it.

Am I able to get around this feature, or is this an imbedded feature of
the program that can't be toggled?

Look at the documenation for fcc-save-hook.

At most simple, you could just say

fcc-save-hook   .   =sent-mail

or some such. But you could get fancier

Text substitution

2000-01-20 Thread Jon Walthour

I've got a STRANGE problem at my new client site. They're using GroupWise (UGH!) and 
I'm using Mutt (Yeah!). I've gotten them to interface through their POP3 server. So, I 
can get mail from people on site. I can also sendmail out to the outside world (like 
you all) through the same server acting as am SMTP gateway. The problem is that I 
can't send mail to others internally. Here's why: they have no DNS entry for their 
POP3 server, just an IP address. So, if I sendmail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], it 
disappears; if I send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED], it works. Like I said, strange.

My question is this: Is it possible to set up an alias or a rule in mutt such that 
every time I respond to an internal email from Joe Blow with a return address of 
[EMAIL PROTECTED], it automatically changes it to [EMAIL PROTECTED]?

If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears because this is driving me crazy!!

PGP / GPG in background

2000-01-20 Thread Sami Dalouche

Hi all,

I'm a user of mutt and like it but there are a few things I'd like to be able to
do with it.
So, It is possible to 
* Use Mutt with Usenet. I'm pretty sure we can't but is there a plan
to program it ? Is it already in a patch ? Will this patch be included in
the next version ?

* I'd like to know whether we can put GnuPG in the background
instead of waiting the 5 or 6 seconds each time we send an email. With
Outlook, it directly signs & encrypt in the background, but with mutt, it
does it while not allowing you to do anything else.

* Is there an X frontend to mutt ? The problem isn't that I hate
the console but that I'd like to be able to do several things at the same
time. For example, when I reply to someong, I'd like to be able to read
another message without opening a new console + re-opening the same
mailbox...

Thanks for helping me...

You're on a unix workstation? Set up your own sendmail, even if it has
to listen on a high port if you can't be root. Sendmail is the "right"
way to deal with such things.
