No, not yet.

Yeah, it's evil because it's not the optimal solution but it works
reliably (enough).  I wonder what enigmail does with mails like this:

  http://marc.info/?l=mutt-users&m=121916523318263&w=2

Is there a public archive of the enigmail list? Reading up on the
subject could be fun I guess.

Re: Question about fetching mail with through HTTPs

Hi,

I actually found fetchExc application. fetchExc
(http://www.saunalahti.fi/juhrauti/index.html)

There are several drawbacks thought.
1. It is only collects data from the "Inbox"
2. And it does not keep states of mail collection...meaning it does not
remember which e-mail was downloaded previously. So it either does All,
or Unread.

Best,
Paul

I tried a few times. *sigh*

Here: http://mozdev.org/pipermail/enigmail/

But it's nasty searching in it. I tried to find a good thread to show
you with searching 'pgp/mime site:mozdev.org' but that was not that
successful. I hardly remember but I think these were mostly off-topic
discussions.

Re: Digital signature - .dat file in Outlook

Hi,

sorry for the two mails, I started answering with mutt and instead of
saving a draft and finishing this in Thunderbird, I sent it. Time for
bed. ;-)

Thunderbird with Enigmail plugin renders an additional bar above the
From, To, Subject, Date, ... display. This bar is coloured differently
depending on verification status of the mail and showing some text on
top. With the mail mentioned above (I still have it in my mail archive)
it shows a grey bar stating the following error:

  Error - No valid armored OpenPGP data block found

Using templates - [plain text]

I have created a template:

From: Gen Paul <pgenpaul <at> gmail.com>
To: pgenpaul <at> gmail.com
Cc:
Bcc:
Subject: [To be defined]

When I do:

$ mutt -H template.txt

I see this at the bottom of the screen:

To: pgenpaul <at> gmail.com

So I have to hit <enter> to continue,

Then I see this:

Cc:

So I hit <enter> again,

And only then mutt launch the editor and then I am able edit
my template - add the messsage body etc.

I don't understand why mutt prompts me for the "To:" since
mutt already knows the answer, or why it prompts me for the
"Cc:" since my template leaves it blank, while it is not prompting

See these variables:

$ mutt -Q askcc askbcc abort_nosubject
askbcc is unset
askcc is unset
abort_nosubject=ask-yes

and the following ticket:

I missed askcc - so there is no askto variable and this problem cannot
be solved.

Thank you,

send2-hook not working for me

When composing an email to e.g. family, while in a list-related mailbox,
I'd like to temporarily reassign "Reply-To:", overriding the current
folder-hook. Using the manual, and experiences found on the list, I've
come as far as this in .muttrc:

send2-hook '~t them <at> theirdomain\\.net\\.au' 'my_hdr  Reply-To: me <at> mydomain.on.net'

Even when I precede that with:

send2-hook .* 'unmy_hdr  Reply-To:'

the header remains as set by:

folder-hook mutt.*        my_hdr  Reply-To: mutt-users <at> mutt.org

Yes, I'm exiting vim before expecting even send2-hook to do anything. ;-)

I've also scanned the manual for a way to use an alias or similar to
match a group of addresses in the hook, so any pointers on that would
also help an awful lot.

If I have to upgrade my Mutt 1.5.15, then I'll have to compile or
upgrade my ubuntu, because the mirrors don't have 7.10 any more.
(OK, yes, soon, maybe, but I usually keep an install for 3 years.)

Erik

"not a mailbox"

I posted this question recently but I can't remember to what list.
Searhing archives yields nothing. My apologies if this is a duplication.

When reading mail from my Debian 5.02 laptop Mutt won't read messages 
on the support-firefox list giving the error message that
support-firefox is not a mailbox. The kicker is that mutt on my Ubuntu
Hardy desktop doesn't exhibit this behavior. Both computers have
identical ~/.muttrc files, one having been copied over to the other.

I'm at a loss as where to begin troubleshooting this. Any help would be
appreciated.

Compare the mailbox files, check the 'From ' lines.
