Certain named classes of characters are predefined. Character classes consist

defined by the POSIX standard:

Punctuation characters (characters that are not letter, digits,

Collating Symbols
A collating symbol is a multi-character collating element enclosed

in ``[.'' and ``.]''. For example, if ``ch'' is a collating ele-
ment, then [\b[[\b[.\b.c\bch\bh.\b.]\b]]\b] is a regexp that matches this collating ele-
ment, while [\b[c\bch\bh]\b] is a regexp that matches either ``c'' or ``h''.

to match messages, e.g. for operations like tagging and scoring. A pattern con-

expressions. For ranges, the forms <[MAX], >>[MIN], [MIN]- and -[MAX] are also
To logical OR patterns, simply use the | operator. This one especially useful

The so called _\bF_\bo_\br_\bm_\ba_\bt _\bS_\bt_\br_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bs offer great flexibility when configuring mutt-ng.
In short, they describe what items to print out how in menus and status mes-
sages.

+ _\bm_\ba_\bt (section 7.4.324 , page 167) variable. For the hostname and version
string, there's an expando for $status_format: %h expands to the hostname and
%v to the version string. When just configuring:
Mutt-ng 1.5.9i on mailhost: ...

In the index, there're more useful information one could want to see:
+\bo which mailbox is open
For the number of certain types of messages, one more feature of the format
strings is extremely useful. If there aren't messages of a certain type, it may
+
+ The Mutt Next Generation E-Mail Client 55
+
not be desired to print just that there aren't any but instead only print some-
thing if there are any.
This is achieved by the following syntax for those expandos which may be
printed nonzero:
- The Mutt Next Generation E-Mail Client 55
-
%?<item>?<string if nonzero>&<string if zero>?
Using this we can make mutt-ng to do the following:
set status_format = "%v on %h: %B: %?n?%n&no? new messages ...
+ The Mutt Next Generation E-Mail Client 56
+
As you might see from this rather simple example, one can create very complex
but fancy status messages. Please see the reference chapter for expandos and
those which may be printed nonzero.
%>X
Since the previous expando stops at the end of line, there must be
-
- The Mutt Next Generation E-Mail Client 56
-
a way to fill the gap between two items via the %>X expando: it
puts as many characters X in between two items so that the rest of
the line will be right-justified. For example, to not put the ver-
ject. To tag all messages matching a pattern, use the tag-pattern function,
which is bound to ``shift-T'' by default. Or you can select individual mes-
sages by hand using the ``tag-message'' function, which is bound to ``t'' by

syntax.
Once you have tagged the desired messages, you can use the ``tag-prefix'' oper-
ator, which is the ``;'' (semicolon) key by default. When the ``tag-prefix''
operator is used, the n\bne\bex\bxt\bt operation will be applied to all tagged messages if
that operation can be used in that manner. If the _\b$_\ba_\bu_\bt_\bo_\b__\bt_\ba_\bg (section 7.4.19 ,

mutt will "eat" the rest of the macro to abort it's execution. Mutt-ng will
stop "eating" the macro when it encounters the ``end-cond'' operator; after
arbitrary commands before performing some operation. For example, you may wish

(while viewing a message), the attachment menu and the compose menu.

When you select a message from the index and view it in the pager, Mutt decodes

and the Encoding is one of 7bit/8bit/quoted-printable/base64/binary.

If Mutt-ng cannot deal with a MIME type, it will display a message like:
[-- image/gif is unsupported (use 'v' to view this part) --]

The '-' denotes that Mutt-ng will delete the file after sending (or postponing,
or canceling) the message. It can be toggled with the toggle-unlink command
(default: u). The next field is the MIME content-type, and can be changed with

When you add an attachment to your mail message, Mutt-ng searches your personal

mime.types file at ${HOME}/.mime.types, and then the system mime.types file at
/usr/local/share/mutt/mime.types or /etc/mime.types
referred to as the mailcap format. Many MIME compliant programs utilize the
mailcap format, allowing you to specify handling for all MIME types in one
place for all programs. Programs known to use this format include Netscape,

XMosaic, lynx and metamail.
In order to handle various MIME types that Mutt-ng can not handle internally,
In particular, the metamail distribution will install a mailcap file, usually
as /usr/local/etc/mailcap, which contains some baseline entries.

Mutt-ng could use the following mailcap entries to automatically view attach-
