Re: xlabel request

Hello Antoine, David,

    That's an annoying conflict: The browse mailboxes macro [y] is
consistent with "mutt -y". OTOS <edit-label> bound to the [y] key is
consistent with the ~y search pattern, and with the %y and %Y expandos.

    The macros can act as a quick toggle, show/hide mailboxes browser:
They'd like to keep the easy single key [y].

    <edit-label> leads to a prompt, wanting both hands on keyboard: It
should be able to bear with a more complex binding, like shift-y (or
something else like <Esc>y, ^Y, or whatever). And X-Labels already
picked an uppercase for the %Y expansion.

Bye!	Alain.

     I can't reproduce this problem: When pressing [c], the prompt
 defaults to "=inbox" as soon and as long as the inbox is considered new.
 Pressing <Enter> then opens the inbox.

     Maybe something is reading the inbox, or messing with its access or
 modification timestamps?

It is annoying, but so it goes.  When the x-label patch was first
developed, it was %x/X and ~x, but then mutt started using ~x for
something else. ('x' would have been a bad binding for edit-label
anyway.)  So x-label went to the next letter in the alphabet that wasn't
in use, and then got accepted upstream.

Then edit-label came, and used 'y' as a binding because it made sense,
but some years later 'y' was also taken -- first by the NNTP patch, and
then by mutt itself.

I'm happy to change to anything without a conflict it if it will go
upstream.  At some point changing the patch's default binding is just
chasing a moving target, but if it will help Rocco or Brendan, I'll
repost with a change.  It should also affect the x-label sorting
keystroke.

Shift-Y would be a good choice.  <Esc> bindings are to be used as a last
resort, since in some environments you must wait an uncomfortable amount
of time (500 ms or more) between ESC and the other key to distinguish
the separate keystrokes from an ESC sequence generated by the keyboard
(e.g., f-keys, arrow keys).  Control is less bad, but also a second

#2981: opening a Maildir takes forever

Changes (by madduck):

  * keywords:  header cache, performance => header cache, performance,
               Maildir, sorting
  * component:  header cache => mutt
  * summary:  header_cache: opening a changed Maildir takes way longer than
              it => opening a Maildir takes forever

Comment:

 I noticed today that this may well be the 'mailboxes' setting; from
 strace,
 every time mutt opens a mailbox, while it says "Sorting mailbox", it
 actually
 stats all other files in my Maildir hierarchy, which sums to several
 hundred
 thousand.

 Could it be that mutt prints "Sorting mailbox" but doesn't clear the
 message
 when it's done, so that it still shows up while it scans all 'mailboxes'
 for
 new mail?

[Mutt] #3052: Feature request: (customisable?) non-empty description field for application/pgp attachments

#3052: Feature request: (customisable?) non-empty description field for
application/pgp attachments

 When using PGP with GPGME to sign messages, an application/pgp-signature
 part is added to the message, containing the GPG-signed hash of the text
 part.

 This attachment does not have a description, which tends to confuse non
 tech-savy recipients (depending on their MUA) who try to manually open the
 signature and, of course, fail.

 Adding a default description when signing (with PGP, but maybe also using
 other schemes?) a message would help preventing this type of situation.
 Additionally, a user-configurable variable could be supplied (say,
 `pgp_signature_description`).

 Arguably, mutt should bring up the index and let the user do stuff and
 then start to poll the mailboxes in the background...

Re: [Mutt] #2985: segfault in mx_update_context

#2985: segfault in mx_update_context

Comment (by cmsj):

 I am able to reproduce a very very similar backtrace to this using mutt
 1.5.17+20080114-1ubuntu1 from Ubuntu 8.04 (hardy).
 In my situation, I have mutt showing my INBOX which is on imaps:// I also
 have thunderbird running on the same account, applying filters to the
 INBOX to move mail to other folders and in my case it's this which seems
 to be the problem:

 the call to crypt_query() in mx_update_content() segfaults because
 h->content is invalid because h is NULL. I suspect this is because
 thunderbird has moved the mail out of the way before (or while) mutt
 inspects it.
