IMAP folders, some further thoughts/questions

After my recent questions I've been pondering the workings of IMAP folders some more and am still a little confused. Since an IMAP folder can (in some implementations at least) both contain other folders and messages does this mean that it can't be directly implemented as a Unix/DOS/whatever file

v1.0i and color support

I've just updated from mutt 0.95us to 1.0i (in the RedHat 6 for i386 RPM), and it seems to me, colors are totally in a mess. For example, specifying "blue" in .muttrc results in displaying red, and the other way round. Is this a regional problem, caused by updating to international version, or is

Changing IMAP username on same IMAP server

I have two IMAP accounts on the same IMAP4 server, how can I tell mutt to change from one to the other? If I just source a file which does a 'set imap_user=' mutt doesn't seem to know anything has changed. The IMAP server is the same so the $folder and $spoolfile names are unchanged (so is the p

Expire date ?

Hello ! is it possible to set an expire date, so that mutt automatically delets messages in a folder ? Thanks, Christian -- This is clearly another case of too many mad scientists, and not enough hunchbacks.

Detaching a file??

How do I detach a file in mutt? Some of the users are MS users and send my Word97 or Powerpoint presenations. How can I detach it and save it to a file? TIA. Subba Rao [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pws.prserv.net/truemax/

Re: Since we have PGP support...

Unfortunately most of the people on this mailing list use RSA keys which is a copyrighted algorithm and, therefore, not implemented in gpg. When I realized this I generated a new DSS (Diffie-Hellman) key and switched to using it. Both PGP and GPG can do DSS. * Dave Holland ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
