That's a really old fetchmail, with a lot of known bugs, including
problems with parsing usernames with spaces in them.  Try upgrading it,
and see if the problem persists.

Is this list no longer for solving Mutt-related problems?

Or is it just that you think no one else will possibly ever have this
problem, and only the people he'd communicate with off-list could
possibly solve it?

This is perfect behaviour. A Maildir should not have subdirs other then
cur, new, tmp.
If you need subdirs, use normal directories.

  ~/Mail (dir)

IMAP folder may have subdirs. Maildirs not.

If you use hooks to toggle variables make sure you have a default hook

folder-hook . "set folder=~/Mail"

Well some are encoded QP. I know some basics about encryption,
so I wonder why I would want to change that? I let mutt decide
which character encoding to use.

> Is it possible to read Mailinglist of public folders on a

I manged to configure my mutt to read my mails from the exchange server, but
unfortunatly i cannot Browse lower than one level into the public folders.
I am running:
Debian Linux woddy kernel 2.4.7 with imaptool 0.9-4
Everything else is working perfectly > writing mails, browsing subfolders of my
Inbox etc. But when i start browsing the public folder of exchange (win2000
Server, Exchange 2000 SP2) I get timeouts, eg. No response.
The interessting thing is that i can browse some folder (with no subfolders
insinde) and read the mail in these folders.
All folders i have Problems with have subdirectories. In my pager they have IMAP
+ notation.
All with the + down´t work.

Any ideas ?

perhaps the OP is confusing courier's 'maildir++' documentation with
Maildir itself.  courier imapd does actually allow subfolders, and this
is the default. folders start with a '.' by default.

you can put:
set mask="^\\."
to show only folders starting with a leading dot.

personally, i've found that the better way to use both courier IMAP and
local Maildir folders is either to put your actual mail folders in
~/Mail/ and then create symlinks from ~/Mail/foo/ to ~/Maildir/.foo/, or
to do the opposite and link ~/Maildir/.foo/ to ~/Mail/foo/.

courier's strange way of doing things makes sense when the only access
to the system is via IMAP, but it's a pain to use with local folders.

I have
set send_charset="us-ascii:iso-8859-2:utf8"
in my muttrc file. How can send_charset overide pgp_strict_enc?

I'm generally very happy with mutt, but one thing I wish it would do,
which apparently pine and several of the Mac mailers can do, is
reply to lists without my having to update my .muttrc to tell it
about every mailing list I might ever subscribe to.  (I sub/unsub
to lots of lists and it's a chore to keep .muttrc up to date.)

Is there a way to tell mutt to just reply to the address in the To
line (or, perhaps, in the To or Cc line) and not to the sender?

99% of the time, that's what I want a list reply to do, and mutt's
so configurable that I figure there must be a way.  I'd love to
take all those "lists" lines out of my .muttrc and have mutt
"just work" for all mailing lists.  (I guessed "lists *" but it
didn't work, L said "No mailing lists found".)

Thanks!

pine doesn't have this function. even in more recent versions, which
have support for rfc 2369 headers, you can't 'list-reply' or
'list-post'.  you can, of course, group-reply, but you can do this in
mutt too.

how would mutt pick which?  it's not psychic.

how is mutt supposed to know which addresses are mailing lists and which
aren't? if mutt had support for interpreting rfc 2369 style headers, i
suppose it would be possible to make a guess in some cases.

note that you probably want to use 'subscribe' rather than 'lists' for
lists that you're subscribed to.

There is this

   Mail client test file v0.5 (55kb): This mbox file triggers some bugs
   and has very long field values to trigger buffer overflows.

at http://kmail.kde.org/mail-client-QA.gz . Mutt doesn't crash, but
shows only 18 mails whereas kmail shows 20. I guess that has to do with
different interpretation of From_. Is mutt supposed to behave as it
does?

Umm sorry, I don't understand. My iSpell is a standard version that came with
the SuSE 7.3 Pro distro. Wrappers? What are you referring to? What are

??? procmail happily sorts into subdirs of ~/Mail which is a maildir. As
I understand Maildirs they contain mail messages in cur, new and tmp.
Other directories arent affected in any way and my be used for more maildirs.

Thank you for your suggestions, I have tried both already. As I find
myself typing the folder names directly more often the link solution
seems superior to mask.

Yes, it is weird. But if it didnt use the dots it wouldnt be that bad.

Mutt does not see the last two mails:

X-From_: dnaber@...  Fri Jun 16 00:15:22 2000
Subject: Date in 1975

From bla <bla@...> Sat Jul 15 20:37:05 2000
X-From_: bla@...  Sat Jul 15 20:36:34 2000
Subject: HTML only

Guess it does not recognize the two ^From_ lines because of the special
format. All other ^From_ lines look like this:

From aaa@aaa Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 1997

The other format is obviously the mailer test in this case. See X-From_:
Mutt failed.
Mutt also fails with Dates. If you sort by date/date the order is not
correct.

Have you tried both <space> and <enter> to select those folders?

It's not Fetchmail. I use 5.9.11 now, which seems to be the latest
version, but I cannot verify David's mail.

This might be a good idea.

Well, it's not unusual to have an occasional unverifiable mail, but for
it to be so consistent for you, it almost has to be somewhere in your
MTA path, not your MUA, since nobody else is seeing it with this
frequency.

ALMOST has.  It could be Mutt, but I don't think anybody else is going
to find anything Mutt if they haven't yet.

Try making a copy of your mail spool, and then edit that copy to remove
everything but one of the messages you can't verify, then pump that
message through gpg and see what happens.  If it still doesn't verify,
it's not Mutt.

If a message said:

From: Alice
To: A list

the request is for a command which will initiate a reply to "A list" but not
Alice.

What's not being suggested is that mutt handle something like:

From: Alice
To: Bob, A list

However, in both cases i'd say you should just group-reply to everyone, and
if the recipient is annoyed at getting two copies of the message, they
should just use the one-line procmail/formmail solution to remove duplicate
messages. And if their OS doesn't support that, it's a great incentive to
upgrade to one which does. :)

IMHO, if you hit "list-reply" and Mutt doesn't recognize a list, it
should assume you know what you're talking about, and pop up the "To:"
address as a "yes/no" default.  Then if you say no, it should cycle
through the Cc: addresses until you say "yes" or "q".

Alternately, just do the "To:", and ignore the "Cc:", because people
shouldn't be Cc:ing lists.  But that may just be me.

I don't know that I'd say that.  I cannot verify my own messages in my

I had previously tried saving the body and the signature of a given
message and found that the signature was valid but not verified.

I tried this method, using my editor to write everything from the last
^From_ line down to the bottom of the folder out to a file, but couldn't
get gpg to do anything with it:

   [zero] [9:39am] ~>  cat /tmp/m | gpg --verify
   gpg: no signed data
   gpg: can't hash datafile: file open error
   [zero] [9:39am] ~>  gpg --verify /tmp/m
   gpg: no signed data
   gpg: can't hash datafile: file open error
   [zero] [9:39am] ~>  gpg --verify < /tmp/m
   gpg: no signed data
   gpg: can't hash datafile: file open error

What did you mean?

Just because Courier IMAP does that doesn't mean that Maildirs are
actually permitted to have subfolders therein.

Please provide the Maildir spec which states that directories other than
cur, new, and tmp may be present in a Maildir.  I am sure that, given a
proper reference, the developers will fix the code so that Maildirs are
handled with full capabilities as they are designed.  You can count on
mutt to Do It Right.


% > perhaps the OP is confusing courier's 'maildir++' documentation with

Sure; procmail will put mail wherever you tell it to.  That also doesn't
mean that Maildirs are permitted to have subfolders therein.


% I understand Maildirs they contain mail messages in cur, new and tmp.
% Other directories arent affected in any way and my be used for more maildirs.

I look forward to a pointer to the spec or an actual copy posted to the
list.
