archiv & IMAP

2001-09-30 Thread Waldemar Brodkorb

Hello *,

I'm using Mutt in combination with IMAP/SSL (Courier).
It works quite well since 2 month's.

Now I want to archive old mail's in mailinglists, works with
this macro:
macro index  "T ~d>1w\n;s\n" "Save messages older than a week"

Then I automated this behavior:
folder-hook mailbox 'push '

But there is one problem left, when the tagging did not match,
the actual mail in the mailbox is marked as deleted/saved.

Bruno Postle mentioned the same behavior yesterday.

O.k. it is only one key ('u') to solve this manually.  

Is this a bug? 

bye
Waldemar



'References' and 'In-Reply-To'

2001-09-30 Thread Matthias LOITSCH

I'm sure that everybody here knows the problem that some email programs
don't know how to reply correctly to a mail... So the threads are
interrupted or shown something like this:
'*>

so i looked in the header of those emails, and found that the emails
which aren't recognized as an reply don't have the In-Reply-To and
the References field. Ok, there is nothing to do.

but in some mails, there *is* the References field (but not the
In-Reply-To) and mutt does *not* recognize it...
is the References field not a kind of In-Reply-To ?
: if not : what is the difference.
: if yes : why does mutt not see it as an reply, and can i change
  someting in the .muttrc to let mutt recognize it?


thanks.

quoted-printable in headers

2001-09-30 Thread Massimo D'Antoni

I'm having some troubles with quoted-printable encoded characters in
headers (From and Subject).
I very often receive mails from
  =?iso-8859-1?Q?Jo=E3o Leit=E3o?=
but the fact that there is a space in the encoded name keeps mutt from
showing it correctly. I noticed that everything works well if ' '
is replaced by '_'...
Is this a mutt problem or it depends (as I suspect) on the sender's
mailer (apparently he uses netscape webmail)? In the latter case, is 
there anything I can do?

Another question: is there a way to show a name encoded in
windows-1251 (cyrillic), given that the current character set in my
terminal is iso-8859-1?

Thanks

   Massimo

mutt currently supports nothing like that, but it would be easy enough

the arrow key) to move down to the next message.

I don't know much about international characters, but I do know that you
can garble incoming messages any way you wish with formail (or, perhaps
better for this case, sed) when using procmail.  If it's always email from
this fellow and the problems are regular, you could whip up an expression
to change spaces to underscores in the proper headers and use it as a
filter in procmail before the message is delivered to its target mailbox.

Are you sure that mutt doesn't recognize it?  If the References: field
contains only Message-IDs from messages not in your mailbox, then mutt
will have nothing to which to refer and thus be unable to thread that
message.  Same goes for I-R-T: headers; if they don't point to something
that mutt has, then they're pretty useless.

vim+mutt

2001-09-30 Thread Brian

Hi,

I have recently updated my vim plugin for use with abook and other mail
handling tidbits.  Most notably, I've re-organized the way quotes are
found (re's are cool), and added a motion command that will operate over
a "quote level".  Below is an example:

1 > 
2 > : Hi,
3 > : How are you doing?
4 > : Did you get over that STD?
5 > Yeah, It only took a few months.
6 > 

Let's assume that the cursor is at line 2 and that our new motion
command is 'q'.  If we type 'dq', then the text will be transformed
into:

1 > 
2 > Yeah, It only took a few months.
3 > 

And, if type 'gqq' the text will become: (assuming 'comments' contains
"n::" and "n:>".

1 > 
2 > : Hi, How are you doing?  Did you get over that STD?
3 > Yeah, It only took a few months.
4 > 

Also, my patch for abook has been incorporated into abook 0.4.14
(abook.sourceforge.net).  My original mail plugin is also inside of the
'contrib' directory of abook, but it is an older version.  I've sent the
latest to the author, so hopefully, this new one will be added.  

If you would like a copy of this plugin please email me.  It requires
Vim 6.0.

Hiding read messages in a newsgroup?

2001-09-30 Thread Matěj Cepl

Maybe, that I am asking too much, but my experience with mutt is
that everything is possible -- one just has to know, what to put
in .muttrc. So,

would it be possible to hide read messages in a newsgroups (using
VVV patch for nntp on mutt 1.3.22.1i and listerver is local
leafnode)? I mean, that it would be much better if there would be
only unread messages in opened newsgroup.

Sorry for my English, it's getting to late on me :-)

Thanks for answer

I had a similar problem, but when I used /etc/news/inn.conf from
my binary RedHat package of inn (just that file, I use leafnode
otherwise; and it may be different on FreeBSD), changed couple of
lines -- organization, server, and domain -- and it works. I have
not been able to work with inn.conf created according to

when it was).

If you wish, I can send you my inn.conf.

Well, I have downloaded mutt-1.3.22.1 and VVV patches (together
with his .spec file; all from http://mutt.org.ua/download) to my
RedHat 7.0, compiled via rpm -ba and resulting mutt works with

Couldn't you use the limit feature to do this.

Try something like

l ~N

to only show new messages or

l ~N | ~O

to only show new and old messages.

limit works in any mailbox (or newsgroup).

The sender's mailer is bad. RFC 2047 says that spaces must NEVER be used in
an encoded word in a header, since a space is an atom separator. And yes,
an underscore is to be used for a space. You could fix it as the mail comes
in with some tool like sed or perl.

It would, but the point of using imap is to use it for storage and
remote access - Ideally there would be a client tool that connected to
an imap INBOX, fetched specified headers from all the unread mail, then
issued lots of move/delete commands based on some regexes in a config
file - A piece of vapourware that has been discussed here before.

Nope, not even a user account associated with the mailbox - This is a
dedicated imap server with virtual accounts.

folder-hook   "push \"l~N\n\""

and probably extend it to show old messages to (i have mark_old
unset).

The only problem is, that when there are no new messages, this pattern
fails to find matching messages, and subsequently all messages are
shown.

After getting the accent characters working myself (by making sure my
LC_CTYPE and/or LANG vars are set properly), I received this message,
which contains numerous characters (particularly in the sender's name
and signature) that are still displayed as '?'  characters.  I'm
assuming that's because it contains characters that can not be
represented by my character set?  Or is that something that the VVV
patches do?

Re: Filtering imap mail with a macro

2001-09-30 Thread Bruno Postle

Thanks to Ulf Erikson, I've got a macro that doesn't perform quite as
many unnecessary saves as before. It's still a nasty hack though :-)

Here's a config that assumes: incoming mail arrives in the imap INBOX
(which remains the default spool for unsorted mail), plus there are two
mailing lists that need to be sorted to pre-existing folders +mutt-users
and +mutt-dev respectively:

# set folder=imap://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/INBOX
# set mbox=+mbox
# set record=+mbox
# set postponed=+postponed
# set spoolfile=imap://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/INBOX
# 
# mailboxes ! +mutt-users +mutt-dev
#
# fcc-save-hook '~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]' +mutt-users
# fcc-save-hook '~C [EMAIL PROTECTED]' +mutt-dev
# fcc-save-hook '~A' !

message status (was Re: a timeout before "N" is gone)

Similarly, I use mutt with IMAP, and when I switch to a different mail
folder from one that has new mail in it, and then switch back, the new
mail is no longer marked as new mail, but marked with a status of 'O'
instead.  This drives me crazy, because I get so much mail in so many
mailboxes that the only way I can keep track of which folders have
unread messages is to have the folders show up as having new mail.
Occasionally (but infrequently), I miss critical e-mail because of
this.

Is there a way to make mutt never use the 'O' status, instead keeping
a status of 'N' on all mail which has not yet been read?  Other
mailers, such as netscape for example, behave in this way; i.e. there
is no differentiation between new mail and old unread mail.

Note that flagging the message as New does not help at all, because
again, as soon as you change folders to a different folder, mutt will
"see" the message with the 'O' status.

By way of further explanation:

The order in which you define your mailboxes in .muttrc (or sourced
files, of course) is the order mutt will prompt for those mailboxes
(assuming they have new mail in them).  I set up my mailboxes in the
order they are most critical.  So for example, let's say I have the
following mail boxes defined:

  critical
  daily
  logs
  fun
  junk

[FWIW, these are nothing like my actual mail folders, and I have about
5 times as many.]  If I'm reading mail in logs, but I receive e-mail
in critical, then when I hit the 'c' key to change mail folders, mutt
will ask me if I want to change to critical.  I do, and I read the
critical mail that showed up there.  In the mean time, I get new
messages in other mail boxes, so each time I hit the 'c' key to change
folders, I end up in one of those mailboxes (since the next highest
priority mailbox with new mail will be the one I'm prompted to enter).
I won't be taken back into the logs folder until I receive mail in
that folder, and in all likelihood I will have forgotten to read some
important log message that was left in there since the last time I was
in the folder.

Now, if one of those messages in the logs folder contained information
to which I must react in a time-critical manner... well, I think you
see the problem.

Can this be changed?

Thanks

There's a significant improvement that could be made on this situation:
sometimes, there's a message with References: that go back all the way
to a message thta you have, and another message that refers to some
other reference on that list of references between two existing
messages.  I know how to fix this, but it will take some work (and will
require not getting distracted by the desire to ream out all the other

(fwd) GPG signatures and broken clients

2001-09-30 Thread Viktor Rosenfeld

Hello folks,

I started with mutt a week ago and I am more than happy with it.

However, my sister -- who has to use Outlook as her e-mail client --
pointed out to me, that gpg-signed mails won't show up properly in
Outlook.  Instead, there are too attachments, the plain-text message and
the signature.  So she ends up reading my mail with a text editor.

I figure that this is a known problem with mutt.  I noticed, that there
is a "gpg --clearsign" hack with a macro, which I could automatically
invoke with a send-hook, but I wondered if there was a cleaner solution.

TIA,
Viktor

I had a similar problem, but when I used /etc/news/inn.conf from

You know, I had this same problem a while back, but couldn't find the
message where I detailed the solution - and I knew it was a simple
thing.  Couldn't dig it out of my brain either.

Finally I found the catch - the temp directory specified in inn.conf
has to be world writeable.  All temp directories should be, right?

My solution was the same as on the other machine - change the temp
path to /tmp

Problem solved.

Thanks for the suggestion.

That doesn't seem to be the case -- I unset mark_old and it does
indeed not mark the messages old.  

This does not fix my problem though, because mutt for some reason
doesn't realize that the folder still has new mail in it, unless I
actually exit mutt and restart it.

Oh well.

As I understand it (I've never used mutt with IMAP, but I have worked
with the code for $mark_old), this isn't exactly true.  The messages
will still be marked as old, but when $mark_old is unset mutt will
totally ignore that and consider old messages as new.  If you set
$mark_old before entering an IMAP folder any messages that had
previously been seen will still show up as old.

Note the variable must be set before entering the folder, since with the
standard mutt code the flag is ignored as messages are parsed.  I
submitted a patch to change this (along with splitting the two meanings
of $mark_old) awhile ago, but it hasn't been accepted.

Hiding read messages in a newsgroup?

Maybe, that I am asking too much, but my experience with mutt is
that everything is possible -- one just has to know, what to put
in .muttrc. So,

would it be possible to hide read messages in a newsgroups (using
VVV patch for nntp on mutt 1.3.22.1i and listerver is local
leafnode)? I mean, that it would be much better if there would be
only unread messages in opened newsgroup.

bread, I know)! And help on this list is really terrific. Thanks
again.

Yes, it does, but it is really so much crucial, because then I
know immediately, that there is not much to read anyway and I can
go to the next group.

Thanks a lot again

strange 1.3.22 to 1.3.22.1 compile problem

2001-09-30 Thread Rino Mardo

hi.  i'm trying to apply the diff file for 1.3.22 to 1.3.22.1 and i find
it strange how it works.

first, i have to run "./configure" before i can apply the patch.

second, after applying the patch i have to somehow create a file name
"README.UPGRADE" as the compilation is looking for that file.  without
it the compile will fail.

third, after step two i keep getting this error messages in the "po/"
directory:

PATH=../src:$PATH : --default-domain=mutt --directory=.. \
  --directory=.. --add-comments --keyword=_ --keyword=N_ \
  --files-from=./POTFILES.in \
&& test ! -f mutt.po \
   || ( rm -f ./mutt.pot \
  && mv mutt.po ./mutt.pot )
  file=./`echo uk | sed 's,.*/,,'`.gmo \
&& rm -f $file && PATH=../src:$PATH  -o $file uk.po
/bin/sh: -o: command not found
make[2]: *** [uk.gmo] Error 127
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/root/backup/mail/mutt/mutt-1.3.22/po'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/root/backup/mail/mutt/mutt-1.3.22'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

although this missing files are present before i run make.

i wouldn't normally have problems compiling if i don't apply the patch.
i hate to download the whole mutt-1.3.22 tarball again as i'm on a slow
dial-up line.  is there anything i can fix to make the patch compile?
