I was going to suggest that earlier, but I don't think it solves this particular problem. mutt_bgrun copies the attachment to a temporary file, runs the viewer on that file, then deletes that file when the viewer exits. If libreoffice3.5 returns immediately, you still have the same problem of the file being deleted before the viewer can open it. One solution would be to modify mutt_bgrun to not delete the temporary file. Then you have to solve the problem of accumulated temporary files. Another approach would be to put something like 'sleep 60' on the line before 'rm -f "$tmpfile"' in mutt_bgrun to keep the temporary file around long enough for the viewer to open it before it is deleted.

Re: New mail indicator
Hi Diep Pham Van,
maybe you're looking for the setting "mark_old", which marks new messages
as old if you leave the mailbox.
Greetings,
Stephan

Re: New mail indicator
I don't think that `mark_old` solve my problem. I have `set
mark_old=no` in my .muttrc. When turn it on, If I leave the folder
with unread mails, the new mail indicator is still disappear. And the
unread emails now mark with a `O`, make me even more difficult to find
out where they are.

If you set mark_old to "no" then unread mails will remain marked "N", but the directory containing the *new* (or unread) will only show it contains new mail until you have accessed that directory. The fine mutt manual really does explain this. If the directory contains mail with a date newer than the directory access date, it will show as having *new* mail. If the *unread* (or new) mail has a date *older* than the directory access date, mutt will not show that the directory contains new mail. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.orgPhoto Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535@ http://linuxcounter.net
Re: New mail indicator
So, is there an easy way to change that behaviour?
