Hi list,
I came across an annoying issue when viewing attached files in mutt.
In order to view attachment "A" Mutt saves the file to /tmp/mutt and
launches the appropriate viewer. When I want to see another attachment
"B" which has an identical filename as "A" and ask mutt to display it,
mutt will

Hi,
I often get attachments with completely wrong MIME types. For example
today I received a pdf and a doc file as application/octet-stream. Is
there anyway to bypass my mailcap and ask mutt to open the attachment
with the proper application? So in this particular case, I would want
to open the

Dear Mutt users,
when viewing attachments in external programs (notably openoffice), I
often have a terminal sit "unused" for a while as I'm reading the
attachment. What happens often is that I hit a key or enter in that
terminal (which is showing just the last "$ mutt&quo
Hello Eric,
Why not use "metamail" in a macro and pipe the whole message to
it by detaching the whole process?
If I open a pdf attachment, my viewer "xpdf" is always detached
and i can continue reading my messages while "xpdf" stay open.
Greetings

That's how I have my mutt configured and it works ver
Like in other mail clients I just want to press on the selected
attachment and view it and then go down to the next and view it.
So I may open any number of the attachments at one time.
To detach I am using a mailcap recipe of:
image/jpg; sh -c "exec display %s > /dev/null 2>&1 &"

hello,
is there a way to tell mutt in which order to process
attachments. in particular, i get lots of mail sent by
people who use outlook. that thing sends out 2 copies of the
message : plain text and html. in fact, the attachment menu
looks like this:

Mutt is infinitely configurable at user level it seems. But daunting. Why
not make it easier for the novices (me included perhaps) to do real useful
things with mutt that enhance daily efficiency.
I would like to start with viewing of attachments.
The reality for most users is a high perce
