Scripted GPG-encrypted mails

Hi all. I'm trying to write a script which will mail any file specified as an argument, to a specific user. However, I need the mail to be sent GPG-encrypted. Obviously, I can use cat file | gpg -e -a -r [EMAIL PROTECTED] | mutt -s "Hello World" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or equivalent, but that's a

Hi! I don't know why I cannot delete the mails in /var/spool/mail/ngterry by using Mutt. When the mailbox has too many mails, I have to use Balsa or Mozilla to delette the mails. What can I do to solve this problem? Terence Ng

send-hook for NNTP folders

Hi, there! I'm doing my first steps on VV's NNTP patch. Great one! :-) But I didn't found out to build a send-hook (for $attribution et al) recognizing when a posting is sent to a newsgroup (via "F"). I tried send-hook '~h ^Newsgroups:' 'set attribution="%n wrote:"' but this did not work:

New project proposing mutt

Hello, I just started a new GPL project which recommends the use of mutt (see below). It is Red Hat based, but (see FAQ #5) even users of other distribution might benefit from it. The reverse is also true, of course. Any contribution to the project is welcome! Ciao, Mar

Saving outgoing mail in current mailbox

Hi, Is there a way to tell Mutt to save outgoing messages in whatever mailbox I'm working in? I'm currently setting "record" for each mailbox like this: folder-hook . "set record='=sent'" folder-hook box1"set record='=box1'" folder-hook box2"s

Re: Breaking News: Lusers _want_ to quote email replies The Right Way.

I think this all stems from people not trimming away quoted material. If everyone's going to quote pages of needless text, it makes sense to put your replies at the top; otherwise you'd have to skip past pages of worthless filler to get to the actual message. When was the last time you saw someon

Bug: [yes]/no instead of [y]/n

Hi, I recently upgraded from 1.2.5 to 1.3.27 and the only real annoyance has been that mutt now asks for [yes]/no (or [no]/yes) when it really means [y]/n. Take the [no]/yes case, when I want to say yes, and type "y e s". The y answers the question, and then e sends the message to the editor, w
