Re: PGP problems
Yeah, I was to implement PGP/GPG in my company and we have come to
conclusion that for Linux users (20 of us) we use GPG and for Windows
(100 of them) use PGP coz that has got a GUI of some sort.. Now, none of
the Windows box can read our signature, be in traditional or not..
Windows somehow needs it to be in the message body as clear text before
even reading it..
And if mutt creates any form of Content-type or Content-Disposition,
Windows (Outlook) will display a blank message, and you have to work
your way through (a lot of work!) to get the contents...
Please guys, make it easy for this admin ;) Seems like Windows may not
be making it easier for PGP/MIME.. I hate to be using Netscape Mail with
Thawte ID :(

I saw that there is a pgp_clearsign_command, but how do I activate it... Looked through the manual and all but no joy.. BTW, how I assume that PGP Outlook is working is that it'll see a mail with the BEGIN PGP and END PGP, than you click the sacred button that looks like a key and it'll check out the sig or decrypt it.. A mail that is sent by outlook is a bit automatic, something like the 'set pgp_verify_sig=yes' in mutt..

Maybe run a > quick check through the manual ... Doesn't help, the manual just explains what pgp_clearsign_command is for, how to use it is beyond me.. 6.3.120. pgp_clearsign_command Type: string Default: "" This format is used to create a "clearsigned" old-style PGP attachment. Note that the use of this format is strongly deprecated. A lot of help huh? ;) > % is a bit automatic, something like the 'set pgp_verify_sig=yes' in > % mutt..

There are 6 message in there, 3 with and 3 without attachments.. All same ones, they are either signed, encrypted or both. They are braindead formats actually..

That only works for messages that just contains body, but when you send with attachments, you get BAD signature warning in the messages ;) -- Regards: Wari Wahab If you've seen one redwood, you've seen them all. -- Ronald Reagan >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Jun 28 10:30:36 2000 Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from localhost (wari@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by spider.wizoffice.com (8.9.3/8.9.3/SuSE Linux 8.9.3-0.1) with ESMTP id KAA26019 for ; Wed, 28 Jun 2000 10:30:36 +0800 Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: from pop.wizoffice.com by localhost with POP3 (fetchmail-5.3.0) for wari@localhost (single-drop); Wed, 28 Jun 2000 10:30:36 +0800 (SGT) Received: (qmail 3984 invoked from network); 28 Jun 2000 02:14:51 -0000 Received: from unknown (HELO wari) (192.168.2.40) by mail-hq03.wizoffice.com with SMTP; 28 Jun 2000 02:14:51 - From: "Wari Wahab" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Signed - I am the subject Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2000 10:29:26 +0800 Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MIME-Autoconverted: from base64 to 8bit by spider.wizoffice.com id KAA26019 Status: RO Content-Length: 307 Lines: 12 -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I am the body. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.1 Int. for non-commercial use <http://www.pgpinternational.com> iQA/AwUBOVjyhD+8AuzDZXXyEQKl4wCfcxw6Ah3JYbtVM4QS6jRtDAVI6sgAnAjU d/Jmp/udKmCZh5zT5Ok6J+my =ZD5o -END PGP SIGNATURE- >From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Jun 28 10:32:50 2000 Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from localhost (wari@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by spider.wizoffice.com (8.9.3/8.9.3/SuSE Linux 8.9.3-0.1) with ESMTP id KAA26158 for ; Wed, 28 Jun 2000 10:32:50 +0800 Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Received: from pop.wizoffice.com by localhost with POP3 (fetchmail-5.3.0) for wari@localhost (single-drop); Wed, 28 Jun 2000 10:32:50 +0800 (SGT) Received: (qmail 4389 invoked from network); 28 Jun 2000 02:17:46 - Received: from unknown (HELO wari) (192.168.2.40) by mail-hq03.wizoffice.com with SMTP; 28 Jun 2000 02:17:46 - From: "Wari Wahab" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Signed & Attached - I am the subject Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2000 10:32:20 +0800 Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="=_NextPart_000__01BFE0EC.2406EAC0" X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2910.0) Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Status: RO Content-Length: 891 Lines: 24 This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --=_NextPart_000__01BFE0EC.2406EAC0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBQR1AgU0lHTkVEIE1FU1NBR0UtLS0tLQ0KSGFzaDogU0hBMQ0KDQpJIGFtIHRo ZSBib2R5DQoNCi0tLS0tQkVHSU4gUEdQIFNJR05BVFVSRS0tLS0tDQpWZXJzaW9uOiBQR1BmcmVl d2FyZSA2LjUuMSBJbnQuIGZvciBub24t

Re: Mutt hanging on color
Oh man, it works!! But I have brightyellow almost everywhere in the
.mutt.color.body..
color header brightyellow default .*
color body brightyellow default "\\<\([-A-Z']{2,}[ ,]*\)+"
color body brightyellow red "1-[0-9]{3}[- ][-0-9]+ +ext.? [0-9]+"
color body brightyellow default "\\(c\\)"
Why is this one a one off? Wierd as hell... And I know brightyellow
works coz I see it in my headers, and it is different from yellow ;)

Re: Mutt hanging on color
Alright, this works as well ;) I have no idea what the regexp refer to
though and yours is considerably easier to understand..
The question still remains though, why does mutt freeze..

Mutt hanging on color
I was playing around with Sven Guckes excellent muttrc's and it seems
to hang on certain messages that I've got, kinda happens to me alot (on
the same messages and all), that I've decided to isolate the problem..
After playing around with .mutt.color.body I commented a line that
relieves me of my misery ;).. It's under a section called
# SCREAMING TEXT (often used in spam)
color body brightyellow default" \([-A-Z']{2,}[ ,]*\)+"
Symptoms are,
1. You get a message, long one, scroll down and it freezes up on you and
take 100% of CPU power..
2. You don't even get to view the message at all..
BTW, It could be that the regexp above conflicts on the rest defined
earlier or after... Is this a bug in Sven's muttrc or a bug in muttrc
itself ;)
