mutt + pgp not able to encrypt mail???
Hi! I am using mutt+pgp6 to sign and encrypt my email, to securelly communicate with coworkers over the inet. I have just found out that using mutt version 1.3.20i (2001-07-24), compiled with pgp support: +HAVE_PGP I can only sign, but not encrypt e-mail. Whenever I try to send encrypted email mutt asks me for an keyID for the user I am encrypting it to, and when I enter the keyID (given by pgp -kv username) it does nothing, but just repeats the same action... what gives?? I am using pgp6.rc which comes with the mutt package. Can anyone please assist me couse I need this function quite urgent? THX in advance!

UTILITY: Pretty print from console Mutt
Dear Mutt users, Printing plain text email messages has always been a bit of a annoyance, since it looks so, well, "plain". I wrote the attached quick-n-dirty Perl script to process a print job - it filters the email text, picks out the standard headers and writes a TeX file, which is then rendered and sent to the default printer. Modify to your taste! I use this: set print_command="/FULL/PATH/TO/PROGRAM/emailprint.pl" in ~/.muttrc for it to work. Hope it's useful - it works for me, YMMV. Cheers, Dave. -- Dave Ewart [EMAIL PROTECTED] Computing Manager ICRF Cancer Epidemiology Unit, Oxford UK emailprint.pl PGP signature

set subject on send-hook?
Hi! I am new to both mutt and this list. I've found mutt a great mail app, and I'm still going through all of the possible configuration features, changing things and experimenting with them. So here's my first question: is it possible to set the subject on a send-hook? I have some addresses for which I would like to prepend something like [info] or [urgent!] to the subject line and - obviously - I'd like to do it automagically.

highlighting folded headers - mutt bug?
In my muttrc I have: mono header bold cos@ What I'd really like to do, is have it highlight any occurences of any of my various email addresses, particularly when they appear buried in the middle of a very long Received: line. Unfortunately, what mutt actually does is, if the *first* line of the folded header contains "cos@", it highlights the entire logical header line. If the first line of the folded header does not contain "cos@", then even if that logical header line does contain the string later on, none of it is highlighted. Ideas? -- Cos

making personal mailing lists
Hello. I'm kind of new to mutt after coming from years of using pine. I like mutt very much but one thing I can't find documentation for (probably my bad) is how to create a personal mailing list. I have mailing lists that reside on a machine other than mine written in .muttrc---for example, I have "lists mutt-users" among others. But how can I make a my own mailing list that's not run by some majordomo on some external box? There must be documentation for this, but I'm missing it Can someone point me in the right direction or may if it's short enough just let me know what to do. Thanks folks, Eric -- Eric Cheney [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Batch mailing?
Is it possible to do batch emailing in mutt? Here's the scenario. I want to send the same messsage to a bunch of different people, but they have to go as individual messages (one to each user). I can't put all the users in the to: due to privacy issues. This is for admin purposes. In my role here some people withdraw from course and such and I need to notify them that their account will be removed. But I don't want everyone to see who it went to, only the individuals. I don't want to use the bcc: field in case of spam filters and this isn't spam. I'm using Mutt 1.2.5i w/ VIm 5.8 on solaris 8. Any help is appreciated. -- Carl B.

You can create an aliases file and source it in your .muttrc. Your list would look something like: alias hockey [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], alayna, barbie, kendoll where alayna, barbie, and kendoll would have defined aliases prior to 'alias hockey'. I'm assuming this is what you were getting at. > There must be documentation for this, but I'm > missing it Can someone point me in the > right direction or may if it's short enough > just let me know what to do. This is documented. I just looked it up a few days ago b/c I was looking to create lists myself. HTH, /rc > Thanks folks, > Eric > > -- > > Eric Cheney > [EMAIL PROTECTED] --

I compile mutt on Mac OS X myself and there is also a fink package for it.

A mailmerge script (simple foreach reading from a text file) using mutt in command line mode (or better, just sendmail -f -t $i) should do the trick. -suresh

If you look in the man page, the option is '-E' (--pretty-print) and the modifier is 'mail' which is a language filter for how enscript should preprocess the print object. -- David Rock [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The main problem with the normal sendmail config on there is that sendmail doesn't like some of the permissions. This can be fixed by adding with the following line in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: O DontBlameSendmail=GroupWritableDirPathSafe That will at least allow it to send some mail. I haven't yet had a need for it to send any messages other than ones that various cron jobs send to me.

More config work may be required for more general use. A chmod or two (and avoiding the use of HFS - which might break compatiblity with older Mac OSen) might be a great idea before compiling any *nix stuff - esp sendmail - on OS X. -suresh

This might be slightly off topic, but is there any way to make mutt send mail to an SMTP host directly like pine? If not, how do I make sendmail use a particular smtp host? Thanks for any info.
