What is recommended way of visually signalling the arrival of new mail?
With Solaris mailtool I got used to a little `mailbox with letters' icon.
Mutt is so *totally cool*, though, that I don't want to go back to the
Sun mail application.
Yeah, I could just leave a mutt window open and check it p
Hey, is it possible to re-source .muttrc from inside mutt
and have any changes take effect?

Why do some mail messages I receive show carriage returns/line breaks
as `=20' ? Is my mutt setup misconfigured, or is this totally unrelated
to mutt?

I have a lot of save-hooks that look like this one:
save-hook '(~t ^mutt-users | ~c ^mutt-users)' =mutt
and I wondered if anyone else thought a new operator
like `~tc' might be convenient, e.g.:
save-hook '~tc ^mutt-users' =mutt
Hey, sometimes I shell out of a mutt window,
forget where I am (easy, when you're me),
and start another mutt session. Days can go
by before I catch the duplicated sessions.
I could use a shell script to `ps' for existing
mutt sessions before launching another session;
or is there a better way?
-: LOCKFILE=~/.mutt.lock
Does a lock file exist for IMAP-configured mutt? When I
have a mutt session up, I can't find a lock file anywhere.
Do I need to be concerned with the `dotlock_program'
configuration variable? My configuration and build
of mutt-1.2.5 didn't create a `mutt_dotlock' binar

-: touch $LOCKFILE
Yes, silly of me. It also helps if the luser starts
the *first* mutt session using the script. Duh.
Hey, is there a way to get vi-like key bindings on mutt's
built-in line editor? Something like `set editing-mode vi'
does in my .inputrc?
You can fake it a little bit with stuff like
bind editor h backward-char
as long as you don't use `h' anywhere in the text [:-/

Hey, I'm having a lot of fun with the hooks in mutt, but---
Is it possible that using hooks to generate different cyber-egos for
different recipients could inadvertently shut me out of a news group
that I was subscribed to? Could I somehow have set things in .muttrc so
that a news group no longe
I notice that mutt has a `timeout' feature: if I've started
typing in a To: or Subject: line and then get distracted and
don't get back to it for a few minutes, mutt clears the line
and waits for me to start over. Can this timeout delay be
altered in .muttrc?
TIA/x
-: The timeout should not affect those prompts. Are you perhaps using an older

This is with mutt 1.2.5 and SunOS 5.7 (Solaris 2.7).
If mutt isn't responsible for the timeout, I'll go
