eol ^M in mutt from certain users

^M at end of line is only seen from users using a program called
IncrediMail.

Do I have a problem with mutt showing ^M at the end of lines or is it
this IncrediMail program the user used to post the message?

I know about control/linefeeds and dos2unix but since this ^M problem
only shows up from users who send me messages using IncrediMail, is it
a problem on my end using fetchmail, procmail, and mutt or is it a
problem with IncrediMail?

When user send me a message using any other windows MUA there does not
seem to be any ^M problems.

Re: Evolution honcho uses mutt for personal mail

Also, in Fedora the gnome or gtk based PIM (forget the name) was
removed in favor of Evolution's PIM capabilities.  Evolution is a good
PIM but I'm not so sure about it's mail ability compared to mutt.

I'm stuck on mutt;)

~/Mail/* Not a directory Error

Sometimes when I run fetchmail and go to one of my mailboxes I
get a error at the bottom of mutt saying "/home/usr/Mail/Default
is not a directory and have to 'q' the program, reload it and it
works fine. Any ideas why this would be happening? Thanks in
advance.

Yes. I use folder-hooks and send-hooks for these. I use the aliases
above only if reverse_name selects the wrong address or I want for
some special reasons another adress. Normally mutt selects the from
address automatically.

I don't think, you can do it with this approach. Except you want to
use some 'special' $sendmail perhaps.

Saving attachment to directory, round two

I have read through the "saving attachment to directory" April 15-16
thread a few times, and while it does get me half way to what I would
like to do I wouldn't mind if it is possible to go the rest of the way
too.

How would I insert a message's subject as the file name when saving an
attachment? So far I have:

macro attach W "<save-entry><bol>~/wp/"

which isn't particularly odd. Let's say the message has the subject
"Some text". Then, I would like to make mutt default to saving the
attachment (I don't care about multiple attachments in this case - if
it ever becomes an issue, I can handle that on a case-by-case basis)
as "~/wp/Some text.txt".

Any pointers on how to accomplish this are greatly appreciated.

Rest assure, it is a problem with IncrediMail. I can't think of enough
bad words to describe this program :(

dump this in your .muttrc to deal with it

message-hook . "unset display_filter"
message-hook "~h \"X-Mailer: IncrediMail" \
  "set display_filter='tr -d \\\\r'"

you could probably do it via procmail as well, since I doubt your
average IncrediMail user will be using (g|p)gp...

cheers

I guess the Incredimail authors have a bit to learn about standards.
The following is from my .muttrc:

    # default: no filtering
    message-hook . "unset display_filter"

    # Fix incredimail text's trailing <CR>s
    message-hook "~h \"X-Mailer: IncrediMail" "set display_filter='tr -d \\\\r'"
