case-insensitive completion?
Hi all, Can mutt do case-insensitive completion? If so, how? I've been unable to find anything... I'd really prefer case-insensitive completion, because I use upper case a lot in filenames and mailboxes, but I don't rely upon it to distinguish between files. It's annoying to constantly have to press the shift key, especially because I'm used to *not* pressing shift when I use completion in Bash and Emacs... TIA -- Joost Kremers Life has its moments

I use postfix' sendmail for local mail and msmtp for "outgoing" mail with roughly the following hooks: set my_localpattern='^chris(@(localhost|mymachine(\.my\.fqdn)?))?$' send-hook ~A ' set sendmail="/usr/local/bin/msmtp-enqueue.sh"' send-hook '(~f $my_localpattern | ~t $my_localpattern)' ' \ set sendmail="/usr/sbin/sendmail -oem -oi"' send2-hook ~A ' set sendmail="/usr/local/bin/msmtp-enqueue.sh"' send2-hook '(~f $my_localpattern | ~t $my_localpattern)' ' \ set sendmail="/usr/sbin/sendmail -oem -oi"' > I am quite happy with rss2email/mutt combination as my newsfeed > reader.

Using postfix' sendmail it works ok. Is there some other way around this other than having to run postfix? I am also running msmtp here, along with procmail, fetchmail, mailx (and of course mutt). Having to run postfix always seemed to be too much for my needs and especially my system. Passing a system or local mail directly to procmail would be more than enough for me. If I am not mistaken, ssmtp was able to do without postfix - but is interfering with msmtp. Then I guess I have to change msmtp for ssmtp and set up multiple account handling via mutt and not via msmtp as before, right? JP Bruns -- Time flies like the wind, but fruit flies like bananas.

I haven't used rss2email but it seems trivial to edit rss2email.py to call procmail instead of sendmail. Something like: --- rss2email.py.orig 2009-02-04 09:51:18.0 -0500 +++ rss2email.py2009-02-04 09:52:14.0 -0500 @@ -188 +188 @@ - i, o = os.popen2(["/usr/sbin/sendmail", recipient]) + i, o = os.popen2(["/usr/bin/procmail"])
