set COLORFGBG="default;default"
export COLORFGBG
This resulted in the same text and background colours for mutt that I
had set for the gnome-terminal. I haven't tried messing with colours
for reading mail yet.
I _think_ this may be what the original poster was looking for?

Hope they work :)
For anyone who thinks they missed something, I replied to the earlier
message, bu
coring by what's in the message body, or on
getting the score to go to the left of the message number on the screen?
My current index_format is,
set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15F (%4l) %s"
Here's hoping. Thanks.
Telsa
;s not
mutt that did that; that was procmail's job.
(Btw, I am told that those folder-hooks are not really the right way to
go about that, and that I should use the format you demonstrated :))
I hope this helps.
Telsa
would work:
folder-hook . set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%4l) %s"
folder-hook IN.cvs-commits set index_format="%2N %2C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%4l) %s"
But when I try this, it tells me that it doesn't understand %Z -- although
it shows it perfectly well for everything else.
Any clues on that?
I mentioned problems with scoring before, but had no response. I'm
hoping a clearer (well, clear-ish) explanation will help. :)
Telsa
g the whole thing inside ' quotes worked perfectly.
Thanks a lot!

my Red Hat Linux system it's in /usr/doc/mutt-. I think it may
be elsewhere on Debian? Those settings need to go into your .muttrc
file in your home directory. Or you could put something like,
source
into your .muttrc, which is a lot less typing. (Section 3.21 of
the manual, and it uses alias files as the example, which is handy
for you. Perhaps.)
Hope this helps.

I discovered this because every month or so I have a fit with

AIs. Ideally, they'd know what I wanted to reply, and type it all
in for me, too, saving me that as well as adding a few people to a
cc line :)
Telsa
the screen and colouring things and stuff, I believe).
If so, try this:
export COLORFGBG="default;default"
Then try mutt again. If it's doing the right colours now, stick
that line in your .bash_profile. (This is assuming you're using
Linux, which comes with bash. If not, in the dotfile for whatever
shell you're using.)

Telsa
d of ten "You have this mail, you have that mail, you have other
mail" for every file you tell it to look at! I think how often it
will check is the MAILCHECK variable: unset it to stop it looking
at all.
Telsa
sample mimetypes which
are huge. You might find a suitable entry in those.
Does 'unable to read' mean you get a message about it being
unsupported, or you view something that looks like random ASCII
garbage, or what?
Telsa
ived and procmail has put it in places whilst mutt is
still running.
Dunno on your netiquette question :)
Telsa
what do
you want to alter? Your headers. Folders. How you sort things" and put
little links in to the few headers you need, so that people who just
want to add pgp/gnupg don't have to wade through folder-hooks and people
who want folder-hooks don't have to read about getting mutt to get
your multiple addresses right. It's on my to-do list. But it's not going
to happen for a while; I know that much. :(
Telsa
X, and I get the 'you have new list-mail' or 'you have new personal
mail' message in each shell. I'm sure there's a way around that,
but I have never cared enough to find it. (The variable in bash is
MAILPATH; I believe someone posted the equivalents for other shells
recently.)
Telsa
and see the message without verifying
the key. For dead sekkrit messages about cia-castro-nsa-bombs-etc,
this might be bad, but when it's just a comment on a mailing list
from someone who automatically signs their messages, it's extremely
useful :)
Telsa
fear the muttrc fails at that. The procmailrc
is simple, as these things go...
Telsa
e what I'd do without it :) You need a
gnome-terminal from the gnome-core package version 1.0.52 or later:
the one on the RH 6.1 CD is just too early to include it.
Whether it's worth downloading and installing all the many gnome
packages just to be able to dingus-click on web and ftp links, I'm
not sure... :)
Telsa
h never seem to show up as having
new mail in them. They're listed in mailboxes in my .muttrc just like
the rest.
I have no idea why this happens.
Telsa
will get you out of any screen and bring you back to say the index screen?
When I mis-key and get up at a prompt like that, I delete the suggested
input (if there's any there) and just hit return on a blank input and
it goes away. (Obviously, this won't work if you're at a 'y/n/q' prompt!)
(You could also alter your mouse focus, of course :))
No idea on the macro, sorry.

I don't like the idea. I like one small simple (ha) program that
does email, another small program that does the HTML stuff, another
program that's the editor, another program that sorts the printing
out, and being able to use one from the other and pipe the results
through something else, should I care to.
But then, I don't contribute to mutt development, so my opinion and
wants are not really likely to have an effect. :)
Telsa
e it's joe that's leaving mine:
that appended tilde is generally a good hint :)
Similarly, I use xv for viewing images, but when using it from
mutt I get messages of the style, "Can't open /tmp/mutt-7893252"
and a "Bummer!" dialogue box from xv. I don't really know what's
going on here, but it happens so rarely that I always forget :)
Telsa
this which explain one particular

I wanted to write mine that way, but I was too lazy. :)
Telsa
iate permissions and ownership, or send yourself
a one-word mail with the "mail" command: "echo plop | mail username",
substituting your name in the right place. Then start mutt again.
Telsa
d get upgraded, but at a guess
the docs now live in /usr/doc/mutt-1.2/ or something similarly named.
Telsa
that should go into the main
mutt tarball. I think they're probably better as links off
www.mutt.org. Someone did a nice guide to something a while ago:
I think it was Mutt and setting up groups of hooks for particular
addresses. That's the kind of thing I mean.
Telsa
ias' because I've always used unixy mailers.
But I gather that other mailers use terms like 'address book' and stuff
for the same thing, and people used to those don't think to look for
'alias'.

Yeah, I'm guessing a bit, too :)
Telsa
interface I learned to use well'. Now, if I
were a refugee from one of the MS mailers, or Lotus Notes, I'd
probably think the bottom of the email is the right place to put
quoted material, too, and wonder why the heck mutt persisted in
not doing that for me :) But because I came from elm, 'g' is quite
obviously for 'group-reply' :)
Telsa
ughing through email: I shall start
digging out all my saved "useful tricks" and seeing whether the 0.9x
and 1.0x versions apply to 1.2 shortly. (Is this document/collection
going to try to cover both, or merely to assume that people will have
1.2? I think the latter assumption will be wrong for a few months
yet, but I can see some logic to starting with 1.2 stuff.)
Telsa
'o' for "sort' and 't' for
thread, and it shows up sorted by thread. Whee.
Actually, if this is the way I do it, I begin to suspect there's
probably an easier way. There usually is. :)

or 'less'). Lynx is a browser only (well, for the purposes of that
that suggestion: I know it will do ftp and other stuff, yes :)) and
not a pager. So you can use w3m for this with mutt.
I think :)

on it. And if you hold the control key down and click the mouse,
out opens a Netscape window and it displays that URL for you.
I can see this feature will both appeal and appal :) However, I
don't think mutt really needs it. urlview is entirely adequate --
and doesn't assume you're running X, either.
Telsa.
tes from time to time

Since NetNews, especially, is proliferated by distributing the
postings from one host to another, it is possible to see a
response to a message before seeing the original. Giving context
helps everyone. But do not include the entire original!
Some people will doubtless say that RFC 1855 is outdated, of course :)
