In the sidebar, my mailbox is displayed in a format like
"imaps://john-...@example.com/INBOX". However, in the mailbox browser

Greetings. This is my first post on the list, and I'm new to Mutt. I've
searched the mailing list, and didn't see anything quite like this. Maybe
someone can tell what's happening.
I'm running MUTT 1.5.23 on OpenBSD 5.8. The only patch is the trash folder
patch.
I have Mutt set up to work with
mmon/Mail" in Windows, and "/Common/Mail" in Linux. Or do I just have to
have three separate .muttrc files and manually coordinate them? (I've never
actually used the Windows version of Mutt, so I'm guessing at the path format.)
3. Does anyone have any advice for someone
If no-one comments further, I'm going to see if I have perms to
change the wiki page with this tutorial.

The section about tags in http://wiki.mutt.org/?MuttGuide/Macros is
flat-out wrong in 1.5.21 and 1.5.20, as far as I can tell, and
should be entirely removed or cordoned off.
I tried, and I cannot replicate the old behaviour at all.
Does anyone know when this behaviour changed?

Hi,
how do you handle return reciepts with mutt? I know I can add header
lines to request a reciept (with my_hdr), but how do I make it so that
reciepts are requested based on, for example, recipients?
The idea is something like mutt asking me if I want to request a
reciept when sending a message

Never mind, I found that the program to run must be in the path. It's
working now:
mailboxes = `mutt-mb /home/lee/Mail`
the first line of output from the Unix command will be substituted.
Now I tried:
mailboxes = `/src/c/systools/mutt-mailboxes/mutt-mb /home/lee/Mail`
But that doesn't work. Is there a limit on how long the output can be?
It's 5418 characters.
