Is there a way to make fetchmail/getmail communicate with mutt about what
messsages are deleted?

If mutt has locally deleted a message, then fetchmail/getmail knows what is
deleted and accordingly flush the message on the server. Is it possible?

I assume you mean "in mutt".  W3m is not commonly used from within 
vim.

For you to be able to use w3m to follow links, you have to be using 
w3m directly to view the message.  There are basically three ways to 
do this.

1.  Use w3m in place of urlview in the mutt macro usually invoked by 
    typing Ctrl-B.  Typing : will highlight the links in the 
    message.  See the mutt manual, section 4.13, "Start a WWW 
    Browser on URLs (EXTERNAL)", and this URL:

        http://www.spocom.com/users/gjohnson/mutt/#w3m

2.  Use w3m in place of mutt's built-in pager to view plain text 
    messages containing URLs.  Again, typing : will highlight the 
    links in the message.  See the mutt manual, sections 6.3.122,
    "pager", and 3.19, "Change settings before formatting a 
    message", as well as the above-mentioned URL.

Error building mutt-1.5.9

I'm trying to build mutt 1.5.9 to play around with and am getting an
error.  For now, I just ran configure, with the only option being to
tell it where ncurses is.  When I run make, I get a bunch of undefined
references, but it ends with this:

dotlock.o(.text+0x45c): In function `dotlock_lock':
/tmp/hazmat/mutt-1.5.9/dotlock.c:599: undefined reference to `libintl_snprintf'
dotlock.o(.text+0x476):/tmp/hazmat/mutt-1.5.9/dotlock.c:601: undefined reference to `libintl_snprintf'
dotlock.o(.text+0x64f): In function `dotlock_unlock':
/tmp/hazmat/mutt-1.5.9/dotlock.c:700: undefined reference to `libintl_snprintf'
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /tmp/hazmat/mutt-1.5.9
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /tmp/hazmat/mutt-1.5.9
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /tmp/hazmat/mutt-1.5.9

I hope that's enough information to tell what the probem is.  Thanks for any help on this.

that's weird - CVS works for me on netbsd 2

$ cvs -q -d:pserver:anonymous <at> dev.mutt.org:/cvsroots login
$ cvs -q -d:pserver:anonymous <at> dev.mutt.org:/cvsroots co mutt
$ cd mutt/
$ ./prepare
$ make

how to make mutt show tidy attachment names?

Hi mutters in mud, 

How to render attachments like this into correct file names?

-------------
A     2 =?gb2312?B?1cW80r3nLnhscw==?=       [applica/octet-stre, base64, 27K] 
A     3 =?gb2312?B?ufDB1i54bHM=?=           [applica/octet-stre, base64, 28K] 
-------------

I know these are some Microsoft office files sent by the secretary but from
its name here I can't tell what is the file name extension thus not sure
which format to save them.

Besides, the file names are Chinese (as you can see gb2312 here), how to
make them show the characters instead of these unfriendly codes?

regards

usage of print_command

Hi folks,

I'd like to use a2ps for all my printing from mutt. Right now I use
the print commadn like this:

set print_command="a2ps -R -Pprt001 --columns=1 --center-title=Email"

But now I'd like to print the Subject of my mail as centered title.
Is there a chance to use only the subject as some kind of variable,
to extend my print command to something like this:

set print_command="a2ps -R -Pprt001 --columns=1 --center-title=$SUBJECT"

I hope, someone can help me out.

Cheers

        Sven

I'd look into piping into a script which uses formail (or some similar
tool) to extract the Subject header and passes the result to a2ps.

Try `set rfc2047_parameters' and see if that helps.
