smtp_url with IPv6 address

Hi,

I need to send my mail via IPv6. That's why I want to specify an IPv6
address in smtp_url. But unfortunately I cannot make it work. I tried

set smtp_url="smtps://[2001:dB8:aaaa::1]"

with and without the square brackets.
But mutt cannot parse this. How does one specify this?
Sadly, I cannot use dns names since the local network has no IPv6
nameserver and the SMTP server is IPv6 only. Further I don't have root
access.

Jens

You could also use <esc>C to make a plain-text copy. This will
add some more headers but they should be easily to weed out.

Hope this helps,
Simon

I see "C" in the command list for copying to a file but no "<esc>C".

mail2muttaliases

Perhaps OT, but can someone tell me where to ask questions on 
mail2muttalias.py?

Thanks

Besides decode-copy <ESC>-C, I sometimes simply pipe the message through 
cat. You should set pipe_decode for that.

Christian

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding the original question, but as no one's yet
pointed it out...

If you want to save the text of a message (i.e. the part displayed in the
mutt pager), you can hit "v" to view a list of message parts, then "s" to
save the part containing the message itself to file. (Assuming default
key bindings.)

Despite what you might think from the name of the command bound to "v"
("view-attachments"), this command displays all message parts, including
the message itself. (I recommend reading up on mutt's mime handling if
you want to understand this in more depth.)

HTH,

Toby

I didn't know about decode-copy, that might well be useful.

That still includes all the headers though doesn't it?  Ah, no it
doesn't it includes *no* headers, not quite what I want, I *do*
want what ignore/unignore show me.

mutt screen view with left bar indented

I'm running Mutt 1.5.17+20080114 (2008-01-14) on Ubuntu 8.04 for some 
time now
and I'm still having problems with the characterset. Will address this 
issue later in a separate thread.

I downloaded the packages (apt-get) mutt-patched, muttprofile and 
muttprint hoping to get
(at least with the mutt-patched package) my charset issues solved.

Instead I'm getting now, when I start mutt in a putty shell (or name it 
xterm), anyway, something that is controlled by termcap,
a view of my inbox that is indented by, say, 15 character positions with 
a divider bar consisting of vertical bar characters, highlighted, yellow 
on blue.

This looks like some "feature" but I don't know either how to switch it 
off nor how I can make a senseful use of it.

Any clues?

problem with muttprint

Hello,

I would like to ask, if there is somebody using muttprint.

When I tried it, it prints for me the headers (date, from, subject),
then horizontal line,

and then
-uSN3yb/content instead of the text itself.

The footer is printed OK.

Do you have any hints why it does not print the content?

Thank you

Lubos Kolouch
