- \e[1m1. Introduction\e[0m
-
- \e[1mMutt \e[22mis a small but very powerful text-based MIME mail client. Mutt
- is highly configurable, and is well suited to the mail power user with
- advanced features like key bindings, keyboard macros, mail threading,
- regular expression searches and a powerful pattern matching language
- for selecting groups of messages.

-
- \e[1m2. Getting Started\e[0m
-
- This section is intended as a brief overview of how to use Mutt.
- There are many other features which are described elsewhere in the
- manual. There is even more information available in the Mutt FAQ and
- various web pages. See the Mutt Page for more details.
-
- The keybindings described in this section are the defaults as
- distributed. Your local system administrator may have altered the
- defaults for your site. You can always type ``?'' in any menu to
- display the current bindings.
-
- The first thing you need to do is invoke mutt, simply by typing mutt
- at the command line. There are various command-line options, see
- either the mutt man page or the ``reference''.
-
- \e[1m2.1. Moving Around in Menus\e[0m
-
- Information is presented in menus, very similar to ELM. Here is a
- table showing the common keys used to navigate menus in Mutt.
-
- j or Down next-entry move to the next entry
- k or Up previous-entry move to the previous entry
- z or PageDn page-down go to the next page
- Z or PageUp page-up go to the previous page
- = or Home first-entry jump to the first entry
- * or End last-entry jump to the last entry
- q quit exit the current menu
- ? help list all keybindings for the current menu

+The Mutt Next Generation E-Mail Client
- Mutt has a builtin line editor which is used as the primary way to
- input textual data such as email addresses or filenames. The keys
- used to move around while editing are very similar to those of Emacs.
+Andreas Krennmair
- ^A or <Home> bol move to the start of the line
- ^B or <Left> backward-char move back one char
- Esc B backward-word move back one word
- ^D or <Delete> delete-char delete the char under the cursor
- ^E or <End> eol move to the end of the line
- ^F or <Right> forward-char move forward one char
- Esc F forward-word move forward one word
- <Tab> complete complete filename or alias
- ^T complete-query complete address with query
- ^K kill-eol delete to the end of the line
- ESC d kill-eow delete to the end ot the word
- ^W kill-word kill the word in front of the cursor
- ^U kill-line delete entire line
- ^V quote-char quote the next typed key
- <Up> history-up recall previous string from history
- <Down> history-down recall next string from history
- <BackSpace> backspace kill the char in front of the cursor
- Esc u upcase-word convert word to upper case
- Esc l downcase-word convert word to lower case
- Esc c capitalize-word capitalize the word
- ^G n/a abort
- <Return> n/a finish editing
+ <a\bak\bk@\b@s\bsy\byn\bnf\bfl\blo\boo\bod\bd.\b.a\bat\bt>
- You can remap the _\be_\bd_\bi_\bt_\bo_\br functions using the ``bind'' command. For
- example, to make the _\bD_\be_\bl_\be_\bt_\be key delete the character in front of the
- cursor rather than under, you could use
+Michael Elkins
- bind editor <delete> backspace

+ version devel-r790
- Similar to many other mail clients, there are two modes in which mail
- is read in Mutt. The first is the index of messages in the mailbox,
- which is called the ``index'' in Mutt. The second mode is the display
- of the message contents. This is called the ``pager.''
+ _\bA_\bb_\bs_\bt_\br_\ba_\bc_\bt
- The next few sections describe the functions provided in each of these
- modes.
+ Michael Elinks on mutt, circa 1995: ``All mail clients suck. This one
+ just sucks less.''

- In addition to who sent the message and the subject, a short summary
- of the disposition of each message is printed beside the message
- number. Zero or more of the following ``flags'' may appear, which
- mean:
-
- D\bD message is deleted (is marked for deletion)
-
- d\bd message have attachments marked for deletion
-
- K\bK contains a PGP public key
-
- N\bN message is new
-
- O\bO message is old
-
- P\bP message is PGP encrypted
-
- r\br message has been replied to
-
- S\bS message is signed, and the signature is succesfully verified
-
- s\bs message is signed
-
- !\b! message is flagged
-
- *\b* message is tagged
-
- Some of the status flags can be turned on or off using

-
- By default, Mutt uses its builtin pager to display the body of
- messages. The pager is very similar to the Unix program _\bl_\be_\bs_\bs though
- not nearly as featureful.
-
- <Return> go down one line
- <Space> display the next page (or next message if at the end of a message)
- - go back to the previous page
- n search for next match
- S skip beyond quoted text
- T toggle display of quoted text
- ? show keybindings
- / search for a regular expression (pattern)
- ESC / search backwards for a regular expression
- \ toggle search pattern coloring
- ^ jump to the top of the message
-
- In addition, many of the functions from the \e[4mindex\e[24m are available in the
- pager, such as \e[4mdelete-message\e[24m or \e[4mcopy-message\e[24m (this is one advantage
- over using an external pager to view messages).
-
- Also, the internal pager supports a couple other advanced features.
- For one, it will accept and translate the ``standard'' nroff sequences
- for bold and underline. These sequences are a series of either the
- letter, backspace (^H), the letter again for bold or the letter,
- backspace, ``_'' for denoting underline. Mutt will attempt to display
- these in bold and underline respectively if your terminal supports
- them. If not, you can use the bold and underline ``color'' objects to
- specify a color or mono attribute for them.
-
- Additionally, the internal pager supports the ANSI escape sequences
- for character attributes. Mutt translates them into the correct color
- and character settings. The sequences Mutt supports are:
-
- ESC [ Ps;Ps;Ps;...;Ps m
- where Ps =
- 0 All Attributes Off
- 1 Bold on
- 4 Underline on
- 5 Blink on
- 7 Reverse video on
- 3x Foreground color is x
- 4x Background color is x

- "%?M?(#%03M)&(%4l)?" in ``$index_format'' to optionally display the
- number of hidden messages if the thread is collapsed.
-
- See also: ``$strict_threads''.
-
- \e[1m2.3.4. Miscellaneous Functions\e[0m
-
- \e[1mcreate-alias \e[22m(default: a)
-
- Creates a new alias based upon the current message (or prompts for a
- new one). Once editing is complete, an ``alias'' command is added to
- the file specified by the ``$alias_file'' variable for future use.
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mSpecifying an ``$alias_file'' does not add the aliases specified
- there-in, you must also ``source'' the file.
-
- \e[1mcheck-traditional-pgp \e[22m(default: ESC P)
-
- This function will search the current message for content signed or
- encrypted with PGP the "traditional" way, that is, without proper MIME
- tagging. Technically, this function will temporarily change the MIME
- content types of the body parts containing PGP data; this is similar
- to the ``edit-type'' function's effect.
-
- \e[1mdisplay-toggle-weed \e[22m(default: h)
-
- Toggles the weeding of message header fields specified by ``ignore''
- commands.
-
- \e[1medit \e[22m(default: e)
-
- This command (available in the ``index'' and ``pager'') allows you to
- edit the raw current message as it's present in the mail folder.
- After you have finished editing, the changed message will be appended
- to the current folder, and the original message will be marked for
- deletion.
-
- \e[1medit-type\e[0m
- (default: ^E on the attachment menu, and in the pager and index menus;
- ^T on the compose menu)
-
- This command is used to temporarily edit an attachment's content type
- to fix, for instance, bogus character set parameters. When invoked
- from the index or from the pager, you'll have the opportunity to edit
- the top-level attachment's content type. On the ``attachment menu'',
- you can change any attachment's content type. These changes are not
- persistent, and get lost upon changing folders.
-
- Note that this command is also available on the ``compose menu''.
- There, it's used to fine-tune the properties of attachments you are
- going to send.
-
- \e[1menter-command \e[22m(default: ``:'')
-
- This command is used to execute any command you would normally put in
- a configuration file. A common use is to check the settings of
- variables, or in conjunction with ``macros'' to change settings on the
- fly.
-
- \e[1mextract-keys \e[22m(default: ^K)
-
- This command extracts PGP public keys from the current or tagged
- message(s) and adds them to your PGP public key ring.
-
- \e[1mforget-passphrase \e[22m(default: ^F)
-
- This command wipes the passphrase(s) from memory. It is useful, if you
- misspelled the passphrase.
-
- \e[1mlist-reply \e[22m(default: L)
-
- Reply to the current or tagged message(s) by extracting any addresses
- which match the addresses given by the ``lists or subscribe''
- commands, but also honor any Mail-Followup-To header(s) if the
- ``$honor_followup_to'' configuration variable is set. Using this when
- replying to messages posted to mailing lists helps avoid duplicate
- copies being sent to the author of the message you are replying to.
-
- \e[1mpipe-message \e[22m(default: |)
-
- Asks for an external Unix command and pipes the current or tagged
- message(s) to it. The variables ``$pipe_decode'', ``$pipe_split'',
- ``$pipe_sep'' and ``$wait_key'' control the exact behaviour of this
- function.
-
- \e[1mresend-message \e[22m(default: ESC e)
-
- With resend-message, mutt takes the current message as a template for
- a new message. This function is best described as "recall from
- arbitrary folders". It can conveniently be used to forward MIME
- messages while preserving the original mail structure. Note that the
- amount of headers included here depends on the value of the ``$weed''
- variable.
-
- This function is also available from the attachment menu. You can use
- this to easily resend a message which was included with a bounce
- message as a message/rfc822 body part.
-
- s\bsh\bhe\bel\bll\bl-\b-e\bes\bsc\bca\bap\bpe\be (default: !)
-
- Asks for an external Unix command and executes it. The ``$wait_key''
- can be used to control whether Mutt will wait for a key to be pressed
- when the command returns (presumably to let the user read the output
- of the command), based on the return status of the named command.
-
- t\bto\bog\bgg\bgl\ble\be-\b-q\bqu\buo\bot\bte\bed\bd (default: T)
-
- The _\bp_\ba_\bg_\be_\br uses the ``$quote_regexp'' variable to detect quoted text
- when displaying the body of the message. This function toggles the
- display of the quoted material in the message. It is particularly
- useful when are interested in just the response and there is a large
- amount of quoted text in the way.
-
- s\bsk\bki\bip\bp-\b-q\bqu\buo\bot\bte\bed\bd (default: S)
-
- This function will go to the next line of non-quoted text which come
- after a line of quoted text in the internal pager.
-
- 2\b2.\b.4\b4.\b. S\bSe\ben\bnd\bdi\bin\bng\bg M\bMa\bai\bil\bl
-
- The following bindings are available in the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx for sending
- messages.
-
- m compose compose a new message
- r reply reply to sender
- g group-reply reply to all recipients
- L list-reply reply to mailing list address
- f forward forward message
- b bounce bounce (remail) message
- ESC k mail-key mail a PGP public key to someone
-
- Bouncing a message sends the message as is to the recipient you
- specify. Forwarding a message allows you to add comments or modify
- the message you are forwarding. These items are discussed in greater
- detail in the next chapter ````Forwarding and Bouncing Mail''''.
-
- Mutt will then enter the _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\be menu and prompt you for the
- recipients to place on the ``To:'' header field. Next, it will ask
- you for the ``Subject:'' field for the message, providing a default if
- you are replying to or forwarding a message. See also ``$askcc'',
- ``$askbcc'', ``$autoedit'', ``$bounce'', and ``$fast_reply'' for
- changing how Mutt asks these questions.
-
- Mutt will then automatically start your ``$editor'' on the message
- body. If the ``$edit_headers'' variable is set, the headers will be
- at the top of the message in your editor. Any messages you are
- replying to will be added in sort order to the message, with
- appropriate ``$attribution'', ``$indent_string'' and
- ``$post_indent_string''. When forwarding a message, if the
- ``$mime_forward'' variable is unset, a copy of the forwarded message
- will be included. If you have specified a ``$signature'', it will be
- appended to the message.
-
- Once you have finished editing the body of your mail message, you are
- returned to the _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\be menu. The following options are available:
-
- a attach-file attach a file
- A attach-message attach message(s) to the message
- ESC k attach-key attach a PGP public key
- d edit-description edit description on attachment
- D detach-file detach a file
- t edit-to edit the To field
- ESC f edit-from edit the From field
- r edit-reply-to edit the Reply-To field
- c edit-cc edit the Cc field
- b edit-bcc edit the Bcc field
- y send-message send the message
- s edit-subject edit the Subject
- S smime-menu select S/MIME options
- f edit-fcc specify an ``Fcc'' mailbox
- p pgp-menu select PGP options
- P postpone-message postpone this message until later
- q quit quit (abort) sending the message
- w write-fcc write the message to a folder
- i ispell check spelling (if available on your system)
- ^F forget-passphrase wipe passphrase(s) from memory
-
- N\bNo\bot\bte\be:\b: The attach-message function will prompt you for a folder to
- attach messages from. You can now tag messages in that folder and they
- will be attached to the message you are sending. Note that certain
- operations like composing a new mail, replying, forwarding, etc. are
- not permitted when you are in that folder. The %r in
- ``$status_format'' will change to a 'A' to indicate that you are in
- attach-message mode.
-
- \e[1m2.4.1. Editing the message header\e[0m
-
- When editing the header of your outgoing message, there are a couple
- of special features available.
-
- If you specify
- Fcc: \e[4mfilename\e[0m
- Mutt will pick up \e[4mfilename\e[24m just as if you had used the \e[4medit-fcc\e[0m
- function in the \e[4mcompose\e[24m menu.
-
- You can also attach files to your message by specifying
- Attach: \e[4mfilename\e[24m [ \e[4mdescription\e[24m ]
- where \e[4mfilename\e[24m is the file to attach and \e[4mdescription\e[24m is an optional
- string to use as the description of the attached file.
-
- When replying to messages, if you remove the \e[4mIn-Reply-To:\e[24m field from
- the header field, Mutt will not generate a \e[4mReferences:\e[24m field, which
- allows you to create a new message thread.
-
- Also see ``edit_headers''.
-
- \e[1m2.4.2. Using Mutt with PGP\e[0m
-
- If you want to use PGP, you can specify
-
- Pgp: [ E | S | S\e[4m<id>\e[24m ]
-
- ``E'' encrypts, ``S'' signs and ``S<id>'' signs with the given key,
- setting ``$pgp_sign_as'' permanently.
-
- If you have told mutt to PGP encrypt a message, it will guide you
- through a key selection process when you try to send the message.
- Mutt will not ask you any questions about keys which have a certified
- user ID matching one of the message recipients' mail addresses.
- However, there may be situations in which there are several keys,
- weakly certified user ID fields, or where no matching keys can be
- found.
-
- In these cases, you are dropped into a menu with a list of keys from
- which you can select one. When you quit this menu, or mutt can't find
- any matching keys, you are prompted for a user ID. You can, as
- usually, abort this prompt using ^G. When you do so, mutt will return
- to the compose screen.
-
- Once you have successfully finished the key selection, the message
- will be encrypted using the selected public keys, and sent out.
-
- Most fields of the entries in the key selection menu (see also
- ``$pgp_entry_format'') have obvious meanings. But some explanations
- on the capabilities, flags, and validity fields are in order.
-
- The flags sequence (%f) will expand to one of the following flags:
-
- R The key has been revoked and can't be used.
- X The key is expired and can't be used.
- d You have marked the key as disabled.
- c There are unknown critical self-signature
- packets.
-
- The capabilities field (%c) expands to a two-character sequence
- representing a key's capabilities. The first character gives the
- key's encryption capabilities: A minus sign (\e[1m-\e[22m) means that the key
- cannot be used for encryption. A dot (\e[1m.\e[22m) means that it's marked as a
- signature key in one of the user IDs, but may also be used for
- encryption. The letter \e[1me \e[22mindicates that this key can be used for
- encryption.
-
- The second character indicates the key's signing capabilities. Once
- again, a ``\e[1m-\e[22m'' implies ``not for signing'', ``\e[1m.\e[22m'' implies that the key
- is marked as an encryption key in one of the user-ids, and ``\e[1ms\e[22m''
- denotes a key which can be used for signing.
-
- Finally, the validity field (%t) indicates how well-certified a user-
- id is. A question mark (\e[1m?\e[22m) indicates undefined validity, a minus
- character (\e[1m-\e[22m) marks an untrusted association, a space character means
- a partially trusted association, and a plus character (\e[1m+\e[22m) indicates
- complete validity.
-
- \e[1m2.4.3. Sending anonymous messages via mixmaster.\e[0m
-
- You may also have configured mutt to co-operate with Mixmaster, an
- anonymous remailer. Mixmaster permits you to send your messages
- anonymously using a chain of remailers. Mixmaster support in mutt is
- for mixmaster version 2.04 (beta 45 appears to be the latest) and
- 2.03. It does not support earlier versions or the later so-called
- version 3 betas, of which the latest appears to be called 2.9b23.
-
- To use it, you'll have to obey certain restrictions. Most important,
- you cannot use the Cc and Bcc headers. To tell Mutt to use mixmaster,
- you have to select a remailer chain, using the mix function on the
- compose menu.
-
- The chain selection screen is divided into two parts. In the (larger)
- upper part, you get a list of remailers you may use. In the lower
- part, you see the currently selected chain of remailers.
-
- You can navigate in the chain using the chain-prev and chain-next
- functions, which are by default bound to the left and right arrows and
- to the h and l keys (think vi keyboard bindings). To insert a
- remailer at the current chain position, use the insert function. To
- append a remailer behind the current chain position, use select-entry
- or append. You can also delete entries from the chain, using the
- corresponding function. Finally, to abandon your changes, leave the
- menu, or accept them pressing (by default) the Return key.
-
- Note that different remailers do have different capabilities,
- indicated in the %c entry of the remailer menu lines (see
- ``$mix_entry_format''). Most important is the ``middleman''
- capability, indicated by a capital ``M'': This means that the remailer
- in question cannot be used as the final element of a chain, but will
- only forward messages to other mixmaster remailers. For details on
- the other capabilities, please have a look at the mixmaster
- documentation.
-
- \e[1m2.5. Forwarding and Bouncing Mail\e[0m
-
- Bouncing and forwarding let you send an existing message to recipients
- that you specify. Bouncing a message uses the ``sendmail'' command to
- send a copy to alternative addresses as if they were the message's
- original recipients. Forwarding a message, on the other hand, allows
- you to modify the message before it is resent (for example, by adding
- your own comments).
- The following keys are bound by default:
-
- f forward forward message
- b bounce bounce (remail) message
-
- Forwarding can be done by including the original message in the new
- message's body (surrounded by indicating lines) or including it as a
- MIME attachment, depending on the value of the ``$mime_forward''
- variable. Decoding of attachments, like in the pager, can be
- controlled by the ``$forward_decode'' and ``$mime_forward_decode''
- variables, respectively. The desired forwarding format may depend on
- the content, therefore \e[4m$mime_forward\e[24m is a quadoption which, for
- example, can be set to ``ask-no''.
-
- The inclusion of headers is controlled by the current setting of the
- ``$weed'' variable, unless ``mime_forward'' is set.
-
- Editing the message to forward follows the same procedure as sending
- or replying to a message does.
-
- 2\b2.\b.6\b6.\b. P\bPo\bos\bst\btp\bpo\bon\bni\bin\bng\bg M\bMa\bai\bil\bl
-
- At times it is desirable to delay sending a message that you have
- already begun to compose. When the _\bp_\bo_\bs_\bt_\bp_\bo_\bn_\be_\b-_\bm_\be_\bs_\bs_\ba_\bg_\be function is used
- in the _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\be menu, the body of your message and attachments are
- stored in the mailbox specified by the ``$postponed'' variable. This
- means that you can recall the message even if you exit Mutt and then
- restart it at a later time.
-
- Once a message is postponed, there are several ways to resume it.
- From the command line you can use the ``-p'' option, or if you _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\be
- a new message from the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx or _\bp_\ba_\bg_\be_\br you will be prompted if
- postponed messages exist. If multiple messages are currently
- postponed, the _\bp_\bo_\bs_\bt_\bp_\bo_\bn_\be_\bd menu will pop up and you can select which
- message you would like to resume.

-
- If compiled with ``--enable-nntp'' option, Mutt can read news from
- newsserver via NNTP. You can open a newsgroup with function ``change-
- newsgroup'' (default: i). Default newsserver can be obtained from
- _\bN_\bN_\bT_\bP_\bS_\bE_\bR_\bV_\bE_\bR environment variable. Like other news readers, info about
- subscribed newsgroups is saved in file by ``$newsrc'' variable.
- Article headers are cached and can be loaded from file when newsgroup
- entered instead loading from newsserver.

-
- While the default configuration (or ``preferences'') make Mutt usable
- right out of the box, it is often desirable to tailor Mutt to suit
- your own tastes. When Mutt is first invoked, it will attempt to read
- the ``system'' configuration file (defaults set by your local system
- administrator), unless the ``-n'' ``command line'' option is
- specified. This file is typically /usr/local/share/mutt/Muttrc or
- /etc/Muttrc. Mutt will next look for a file named .muttrc in your home
- directory. If this file does not exist and your home directory has a
- subdirectory named .mutt, mutt try to load a file named .mutt/muttrc.
-
- .muttrc is the file where you will usually place your ``commands'' to
- configure Mutt.
- In addition, mutt supports version specific configuration files that
- are parsed instead of the default files as explained above. For
- instance, if your system has a Muttrc-0.88 file in the system
- configuration directory, and you are running version 0.88 of mutt,
- this file will be sourced instead of the Muttrc file. The same is
- true of the user configuration file, if you have a file .muttrc-0.88.6
- in your home directory, when you run mutt version 0.88.6, it will
- source this file instead of the default .muttrc file. The version
- number is the same which is visible using the ``-v'' ``command line''
- switch or using the show-version key (default: V) from the index menu.
-
- \e[1m3.1. Syntax of Initialization Files\e[0m
-
- An initialization file consists of a series of ``commands''. Each
- line of the file may contain one or more commands. When multiple
- commands are used, they must be separated by a semicolon (;).
-
- set realname='Mutt user' ; ignore x-
-
- The hash mark, or pound sign (``#''), is used as a ``comment'' charac
- ter. You can use it to annotate your initialization file. All text
- after the comment character to the end of the line is ignored. For
- example,
-
- my_hdr X-Disclaimer: Why are you listening to me? # This is a comment
-
- Single quotes (') and double quotes (") can be used to quote strings
- which contain spaces or other special characters. The difference
- between the two types of quotes is similar to that of many popular
- shell programs, namely that a single quote is used to specify a
- literal string (one that is not interpreted for shell variables or
- quoting with a backslash [see next paragraph]), while double quotes
- indicate a string for which should be evaluated. For example,
- backtics are evaluated inside of double quotes, but \e[1mnot \e[22mfor single
- quotes.
-
- \ quotes the next character, just as in shells such as bash and zsh.
- For example, if want to put quotes ``"'' inside of a string, you can
- use ``\'' to force the next character to be a literal instead of
- interpreted character.
-
- set realname="Michael \"MuttDude\" Elkins"
-
- ``\\'' means to insert a literal ``\'' into the line. ``\n'' and
- ``\r'' have their usual C meanings of linefeed and carriage-return,
- respectively.
-
- A \ at the end of a line can be used to split commands over multiple
- lines, provided that the split points don't appear in the middle of
- command names.
-
- It is also possible to substitute the output of a Unix command in an
- initialization file. This is accomplished by enclosing the command in
- backquotes (``). For example,
-
- my_hdr X-Operating-System: `uname -a`
-
- The output of the Unix command ``uname -a'' will be substituted before
- the line is parsed. Note that since initialization files are line
- oriented, only the first line of output from the Unix command will be
- substituted.
-
- UNIX environments can be accessed like the way it is done in shells
- like sh and bash: Prepend the name of the environment by a ``$''. For
- example,
-
- set record=+sent_on_$HOSTNAME
-
- The commands understood by mutt are explained in the next paragraphs.
- For a complete list, see the ``command reference''.
-
- \e[1m3.2. Defining/Using aliases\e[0m
-
- Usage: alias \e[4mkey\e[24m \e[4maddress\e[24m [ , \e[4maddress\e[24m, ... ]
-
- It's usually very cumbersome to remember or type out the address of
- someone you are communicating with. Mutt allows you to create
- ``aliases'' which map a short string to a full address.
-
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mif you want to create an alias for a group (by specifying more
- than one address), you \e[1mmust \e[22mseparate the addresses with a comma
- (``,'').
-
- To remove an alias or aliases (``*'' means all aliases):
-
- unalias [ * | \e[4mkey\e[24m \e[4m...\e[24m ]
-
- alias muttdude me@cs.hmc.edu (Michael Elkins)
- alias theguys manny, moe, jack
-
- Unlike other mailers, Mutt doesn't require aliases to be defined in a
- special file. The alias command can appear anywhere in a
- configuration file, as long as this file is ``sourced''.
- Consequently, you can have multiple alias files, or you can have all
- aliases defined in your muttrc.
-
- On the other hand, the ``create-alias'' function can use only one
- file, the one pointed to by the ``$alias_file'' variable (which is
- ~/.muttrc by default). This file is not special either, in the sense
- that Mutt will happily append aliases to any file, but in order for
- the new aliases to take effect you need to explicitly ``source'' this
- file too.
- For example:
-
- source /usr/local/share/Mutt.aliases
- source ~/.mail_aliases
- set alias_file=~/.mail_aliases
-
- To use aliases, you merely use the alias at any place in mutt where
- mutt prompts for addresses, such as the \e[4mTo:\e[24m or \e[4mCc:\e[24m prompt. You can
- also enter aliases in your editor at the appropriate headers if you
- have the ``$edit_headers'' variable set.
-
- In addition, at the various address prompts, you can use the tab
- character to expand a partial alias to the full alias. If there are
- multiple matches, mutt will bring up a menu with the matching aliases.
- In order to be presented with the full list of aliases, you must hit
- tab with out a partial alias, such as at the beginning of the prompt
- or after a comma denoting multiple addresses.
-
- In the alias menu, you can select as many aliases as you want with the
- \e[4mselect-entry\e[24m key (default: RET), and use the \e[4mexit\e[24m key (default: q) to
- return to the address prompt.
-
- \e[1m3.3. Changing the default key bindings\e[0m
-
- Usage: bind \e[4mmap\e[24m \e[4mkey\e[24m \e[4mfunction\e[0m
-
- This command allows you to change the default key bindings (operation
- invoked when pressing a key).
-
- \e[4mmap\e[24m specifies in which menu the binding belongs. Multiple maps may be
- specified by separating them with commas (no additional whitespace is
- allowed). The currently defined maps are:
-
- \e[1mgeneric\e[0m
- This is not a real menu, but is used as a fallback for all of
- the other menus except for the pager and editor modes. If a key
- is not defined in another menu, Mutt will look for a binding to
- use in this menu. This allows you to bind a key to a certain
- function in multiple menus instead of having multiple bind
- statements to accomplish the same task.
-
- \e[1malias\e[0m
- The alias menu is the list of your personal aliases as defined
- in your muttrc. It is the mapping from a short alias name to
- the full email address(es) of the recipient(s).
-
- \e[1mattach\e[0m
- The attachment menu is used to access the attachments on
- received messages.
-
- \e[1mbrowser\e[0m
- The browser is used for both browsing the local directory
- structure, and for listing all of your incoming mailboxes.
-
- \e[1meditor\e[0m
- The editor is the line-based editor the user enters text data.
-
- \e[1mindex\e[0m
- The index is the list of messages contained in a mailbox.
-
- \e[1mcompose\e[0m
- The compose menu is the screen used when sending a new message.
-
- \e[1mpager\e[0m
- The pager is the mode used to display message/attachment data,
- and help listings.
-
- \e[1mpgp\e[0m
- The pgp menu is used to select the OpenPGP keys used for
- encrypting outgoing messages.
-
- \e[1mpostpone\e[0m
- The postpone menu is similar to the index menu, except is used
- when recalling a message the user was composing, but saved until
- later.
-
- \e[4mkey\e[24m is the key (or key sequence) you wish to bind. To specify a
- control character, use the sequence \e[4m\Cx\e[24m, where \e[4mx\e[24m is the letter of the
- control character (for example, to specify control-A use ``\Ca'').
- Note that the case of \e[4mx\e[24m as well as \e[4m\C\e[24m is ignored, so that \e[4m\CA\e[24m, \e[4m\Ca\e[24m,
- \e[4m\cA\e[24m and \e[4m\ca\e[24m are all equivalent. An alternative form is to specify the
- key as a three digit octal number prefixed with a ``\'' (for example
- \e[4m\177\e[24m is equivalent to \e[4m\c?\e[24m).
-
- In addition, \e[4mkey\e[24m may consist of:
-
- \t tab
- <tab> tab
- \r carriage return
- \n newline
- \e escape
- <esc> escape
- <up> up arrow
- <down> down arrow
- <left> left arrow
- <right> right arrow
- <pageup> Page Up
- <pagedown> Page Down
- <backspace> Backspace
- <delete> Delete
- <insert> Insert
- <enter> Enter
- <return> Return
- <home> Home
- <end> End
- <space> Space bar
- <f1> function key 1
- <f10> function key 10
-
- \e[4mkey\e[24m does not need to be enclosed in quotes unless it contains a space
- (`` '').
-
- \e[4mfunction\e[24m specifies which action to take when \e[4mkey\e[24m is pressed. For a
- complete list of functions, see the ``reference''. The special
- function noop unbinds the specified key sequence.

+1. Overview
+
+ _\bM_\bu_\bt_\bt_\b-_\bn_\bg is a small but very powerful text-based MIME mail client.
+ Mutt-ng is highly configurable, and is well suited to the mail power
+ user with advanced features like key bindings, keyboard macros, mail
+ threading, regular expression searches and a powerful pattern matching
+ language for selecting groups of messages.
+
+ This documentation additionally contains documentation to _\bM_\bu_\bt_\bt_\b-_\bN_\bG ,a
+ fork from Mutt with the goal to fix all the little annoyances of Mutt,
+ to integrate all the Mutt patches that are floating around in the web,
+ and to add other new features. Features specific to Mutt-ng will be
+ discussed in an extra section. Don't be confused when most of the
+ documentation talk about Mutt and not Mutt-ng, Mutt-ng contains all
+ Mutt features, plus many more.

+
+8. Manual Conventions
+
+ This manual contains several (hopefully consistent) conventions to
+ specially layout different items in different fashions.
+
+ * Configuration and environment variables will be printed in a
+ typewriter font and both prefixed with a dollar sign as it's
+ common for UNIX-like environments. Configuration variables are
+ lower-case only while environment variables are upper-case only.
+ $\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_m\bma\bai\bil\bl_\b_c\bch\bhe\bec\bck\bk is a configuration variable while $EDITOR is an
+ environment variable.
+ * Muttng-specific functions are enclosed in <> and printed in a
+ typewriter font, too, as in <sync-mailbox>.
+ * As common for UNIX-like environments, references to manual pages
+ are printed with the section enclosed in braces, as in vi(1) or
+ muttngrc(5). Execute man [section] [name] to view the manual page.
+ * Keys are presented in the following way: ordinary keys are just
+ given as-is, e.g. q. Control characters are prefixed with C- (e.g.
+ the screen can be redraw by pressing C-L) and E- for Escape, e.g.
+ a folder can be opened read-only with E-c.
+
+ If, while reading this fine manual, you find any inconsistencies of
+ whatever kind, please contact the developers via
+ <m\bmu\but\btt\bt-\b-n\bng\bg-\b-d\bde\bev\bve\bel\bl@\b@l\bli\bis\bst\bts\bs.\b.b\bbe\ber\brl\bli\bio\bos\bs.\b.d\bde\be> to report it.

+
+1. Basic Concepts
+
+1.1. Screens and Menus
+
+ mutt-ng offers different screens of which every has its special
+ purpose:
+
+ * The _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx displays the contents of the currently opened mailbox.
+ * The _\bp_\ba_\bg_\be_\br is responsible for displaying messages, that is, the
+ header, the body and all attached parts.
+ * The _\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\b _\bb_\br_\bo_\bw_\bs_\be_\br offers operations on and displays information of
+ all folders mutt-ng should watch for mail.
+ * The _\bs_\bi_\bd_\be_\bb_\ba_\br offers a permanent view of which mailboxes contain how
+ many total, new and/or flagged mails.
+ * The _\bh_\be_\bl_\bp_\b _\bs_\bc_\br_\be_\be_\bn lists for all currently available commands how to
+ invoke them as well as a short description.
+ * The _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\be menu is a comfortable interface take last actions
+ before sending mail: change subjects, attach files, remove
+ attachements, etc.
+ * The _\ba_\bt_\bt_\ba_\bc_\bh_\be_\bm_\be_\bn_\bt menu gives a summary and the tree structure of the
+ attachements of the current message.
+ * The _\ba_\bl_\bi_\ba_\bs menu lists all or a fraction of the aliases a user has
+ defined.
+ * The _\bk_\be_\by menu used in connection with encryption lets users choose
+ the right key to encrypt with.
+
+ When mutt-ng is started without any further options, it'll open the
+ users default mailbox and display the index.
+
+1.2. Configuration
+
+ Mutt-ng does _\bn_\bo_\bt feature an internal configuration interface or menu
+ due to the simple fact that this would be too complex to handle
+ (currently there are several _\bh_\bu_\bn_\bd_\br_\be_\bd variables which fine-tune the
+ behaviour.)
+
+ Mutt-ng is configured using configuration files which allow users to
+ add comments or manage them via version control systems to ease
+ maintenance.
+
+ Also, mutt-ng comes with a shell script named grml-muttng kindly
+ contributed by users which really helps and eases the creation of a
+ user's configuration file. When downloading the source code via a
+ snapshot or via subversion, it can be found in the contrib directory.
+
+1.3. Functions
+
+ Mutt-ng offers great flexibility due to the use of functions:
+ internally, every action a user can make mutt-ng perform is named
+ ``function.'' Those functions are assigned to keys (or even key
+ sequences) and may be completely adjusted to user's needs. The basic
+ idea is that the impatient users get a very intuitive interface to
+ start off with and advanced users virtually get no limits to
+ adjustments.
+
+1.4. Interaction
+
+ Mutt-ng has two basic concepts of user interaction:
+
+ 1. There is one dedicated line on the screen used to query the user
+ for input, issue any command, query variables and display error
+ and informational messages. As for every type of user input, this
+ requires manual action leading to the need of input.
+ 2. The automatized interface for interaction are the so called _\bh_\bo_\bo_\bk_\bs.
+ Hooks specify actions the user wants to be performed at
+ well-defined situations: what to do when entering which folder,
+ what to do when displaying or replying to what kind of message,
+ etc. These are optional, i.e. a user doesn't need to specify them
+ but can do so.
+
+1.5. Modularization
+
+ Although mutt-ng has many functionality built-in, many features can be
+ delegated to external tools to increase flexibility: users can define
+ programs to filter a message through before displaying, users can use
+ any program they want for displaying a message, message types (such as
+ PDF or PostScript) for which mutt-ng doesn't have a built-in filter
+ can be rendered by arbitrary tools and so forth. Although mutt-ng has
+ an alias mechanism built-in, it features using external tools to query
+ for nearly every type of addresses from sources like LDAP, databases
+ or just the list of locally known users.
+
+1.6. Patterns
+
+ Mutt-ng has a built-in pattern matching ``language'' which is as
+ widely used as possible to present a consistent interface to users.
+ The same ``pattern terms'' can be used for searching, scoring, message
+ selection and much more.
+
+2. Screens and Menus
+
+2.1. Index
+
+ The index is the screen that you usually see first when you start
+ mutt-ng. It gives an overview over your emails in the currently opened
+ mailbox. By default, this is your system mailbox. The information you
+ see in the index is a list of emails, each with its number on the
+ left, its flags (new email, important email, email that has been
+ forwarded or replied to, tagged email, ...), the date when email was
+ sent, its sender, the email size, and the subject. Additionally, the
+ index also shows thread hierarchies: when you reply to an email, and
+ the other person replies back, you can see the other's person email in
+ a "sub-tree" below. This is especially useful for personal email
+ between a group of people or when you've subscribed to mailing lists.
+
+2.2. Pager
+
+ The pager is responsible for showing the email content. On the top of
+ the pager you have an overview over the most important email headers
+ like the sender, the recipient, the subject, and much more
+ information. How much information you actually see depends on your
+ configuration, which we'll describe below.
+
+ Below the headers, you see the email body which usually contains the
+ message. If the email contains any attachments, you will see more
+ information about them below the email body, or, if the attachments
+ are text files, you can view them directly in the pager.
+
+ To give the user a good overview, it is possible to configure mutt-ng
+ to show different things in the pager with different colors. Virtually
+ everything that can be described with a regular expression can be
+ colored, e.g. URLs, email addresses or smileys.
+
+2.3. File Browser
+
+ The file browser is the interface to the local or remote file system.
+ When selecting a mailbox to open, the browser allows custom sorting of
+ items, limiting the items shown by a regular expression and a freely
+ adjustable format of what to display in which way. It also allows for
+ easy navigation through the file system when selecting file(s) to
+ attach to a message, select multiple files to attach and many more.
+
+2.4. Sidebar
+
+ The sidebar comes in handy to manage mails which are spread over
+ different folders. All folders users setup mutt-ng to watch for new
+ mail will be listed. The listing includes not only the name but also
+ the number of total messages, the number of new and flagged messages.
+ Items with new mail may be colored different from those with flagged
+ mail, items may be shortened or compress if they're they to long to be
+ printed in full form so that by abbreviated names, user still now what
+ the name stands for.
+
+2.5. Help
+
+ The help screen is meant to offer a quick help to the user. It lists
+ the current configuration of key bindings and their associated
+ commands including a short description, and currently unbound
+ functions that still need to be associated with a key binding (or
+ alternatively, they can be called via the mutt-ng command prompt).
+
+2.6. Compose Menu
+
+ The compose menu features a split screen containing the information
+ which really matter before actually sending a message by mail or
+ posting an article to a newsgroup: who gets the message as what
+ (recipient, newsgroup, who gets what kind of copy). Additionally,
+ users may set security options like deciding whether to sign, encrypt
+ or sign and encrypt a message with/for what keys.
+
+ Also, it's used to attach messages, news articles or files to a
+ message, to re-edit any attachment including the message itself.
+
+2.7. Alias Menu
+
+ The alias menu is used to help users finding the recipients of
+ messages. For users who need to contact many people, there's no need
+ to remember addresses or names completely because it allows for
+ searching, too. The alias mechanism and thus the alias menu also
+ features grouping several addresses by a shorter nickname, the actual
+ alias, so that users don't have to select each single recipient
+ manually.
+
+2.8. Attachment Menu
+
+ As will be later discussed in detail, mutt-ng features a good and
+ stable MIME implementation, that is, is greatly supports sending and
+ receiving messages of arbitrary type. The attachment menu displays a
+ message's structure in detail: what content parts are attached to
+ which parent part (which gives a true tree structure), which type is
+ of what type and what size. Single parts may saved, deleted or
+ modified to offer great and easy access to message's internals.
+
+2.9. Key Menu
+
+ FIXME
+
+3. Moving Around in Menus
+
+ Information is presented in menus, very similar to ELM. Here is a
+ tableshowing the common keys used to navigate menus in Mutt-ng.
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b2_\b._\b1_\b._\b _\bM_\bo_\bs_\bt_\b _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\bo_\bn_\bl_\by_\b _\bu_\bs_\be_\bd_\b _\bm_\bo_\bv_\be_\bm_\be_\bn_\bt_\b _\bb_\bi_\bn_\bd_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bs
+ Key Function Description
+ j or Down <next-entry> move to the next entry
+ k or Up <previous-entry> move to the previous entry
+ z or PageDn <page-down> go to the next page
+ Z or PageUp <page-up> go to the previous page
+ = or Home <first-entry> jump to the first entry
+ * or End <last-entry> jump to the last entry
+ q <quit> exit the current menu
+ ? <help> list all key bindings for the current menu
+
+4. Editing Input Fields
+
+ Mutt-ng has a builtin line editor which is used as the primary way to
+ input textual data such as email addresses or filenames. The keys used
+ to move around while editing are very similar to those of Emacs.
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b2_\b._\b2_\b._\b _\bL_\bi_\bn_\be_\b _\bE_\bd_\bi_\bt_\bo_\br_\b _\bF_\bu_\bn_\bc_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\bs
+ Key Function Description
+ C-A or Home <bol> move to the start of the line
+ C-B or Left <backward-char> move back one char
+ E-B <backward-word> move back one word
+ C-D or Delete <delete-char> delete the char under the cursor
+ C-E or End <eol> move to the end of the line
+ C-F or Right <forward-char> move forward one char
+ E-F <forward-word> move forward one word
+ Tab <complete> complete filename or alias
+ C-T <complete-query> complete address with query
+ C-K <kill-eol> delete to the end of the line
+ E-d <kill-eow> delete to the end of the word
+ C-W <kill-word> kill the word in front of the cursor
+ C-U <kill-line> delete entire line
+ C-V <quote-char> quote the next typed key
+ Up <history-up> recall previous string from history
+ Down <history-down> recall next string from history
+ BackSpace <backspace> kill the char in front of the cursor
+ E-u <upcase-word> convert word to upper case
+ E-l <downcase-word> convert word to lower case
+ E-c <capitalize-word> capitalize the word
+ C-G abort
+ Return finish editing
+
+ You can remap the _\be_\bd_\bi_\bt_\bo_\br functions using the b\bbi\bin\bnd\bd command. For
+ example, to make the _\bD_\be_\bl_\be_\bt_\be key delete the character in front of the
+ cursor rather than under, you could use
+
+ bind editor <delete> backspace
+
+5. Reading Mail - The Index and Pager
+
+ Similar to many other mail clients, there are two modes in which mail
+ isread in Mutt-ng. The first is the index of messages in the mailbox,
+ which is called the ``index'' in Mutt-ng. The second mode is the
+ display of the message contents. This is called the ``pager.''
+
+ The next few sections describe the functions provided in each of these
+ modes.
+
+5.1. The Message Index
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b2_\b._\b3_\b._\b _\bM_\bo_\bs_\bt_\b _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\bo_\bn_\bl_\by_\b _\bu_\bs_\be_\bd_\b _\bI_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx_\b _\bB_\bi_\bn_\bd_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bs
+ Key Function Description
+ c change to a different mailbox
+ E-c change to a folder in read-only mode
+ C copy the current message to another mailbox
+ E-C decode a message and copy it to a folder
+ E-s decode a message and save it to a folder
+ D delete messages matching a pattern
+ d delete the current message
+ F mark as important
+ l show messages matching a pattern
+ N mark message as new
+ o change the current sort method
+ O reverse sort the mailbox
+ q save changes and exit
+ s save-message
+ T tag messages matching a pattern
+ t toggle the tag on a message
+ E-t toggle tag on entire message thread
+ U undelete messages matching a pattern

+ E-/ search-reverse
+ C-L clear and redraw the screen
+ C-T untag messages matching a pattern
+
+5.1.1. Status Flags
+
+ In addition to who sent the message and the subject, a short summary
+ of the disposition of each message is printed beside the message
+ number. Zero or more of the following ``flags'' may appear, which
+ mean:
+
+ D
+ message is deleted (is marked for deletion)
+
+ d
+ message have attachments marked for deletion
+
+ K
+ contains a PGP public key
+
+ N
+ message is new
+
+ O
+ message is old
+
+ P
+ message is PGP encrypted
+
+ r
+ message has been replied to
+
+ S
+ message is signed, and the signature is succesfully verified
+
+ s
+ message is signed
+
+ !
+ message is flagged
+
+ *
+ message is tagged
+
+ Some of the status flags can be turned on or off using
+ * _\bs_\be_\bt_\b-_\bf_\bl_\ba_\bg (default: w)
+ * _\bc_\bl_\be_\ba_\br_\b-_\bf_\bl_\ba_\bg (default: W)
+
+ Furthermore, the following flags reflect who the message is addressed
+ to. They can be customized with the $\b$t\bto\bo_\b_c\bch\bha\bar\brs\bs variable.
+
+ +
+ message is to you and you only
+
+ T
+ message is to you, but also to or cc'ed to others
+
+ C
+ message is cc'ed to you
+
+ F
+ message is from you
+
+ L
+ message is sent to a subscribed mailing list
+
+5.2. The Pager
+
+ By default, Mutt-ng uses its builtin pager to display the body of
+ messages. The pager is very similar to the Unix program _\bl_\be_\bs_\bs though
+ not nearly as featureful.
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b2_\b._\b4_\b._\b _\bM_\bo_\bs_\bt_\b _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\bo_\bn_\bl_\by_\b _\bu_\bs_\be_\bd_\b _\bP_\ba_\bg_\be_\br_\b _\bB_\bi_\bn_\bd_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bs
+ Key Function Description
+ Return go down one line
+ Space display the next page (or next message if at the end of a
+ message)
+ - go back to the previous page
+ n search for next match
+ S skip beyond quoted text
+ T toggle display of quoted text
+ ? show key bindings
+ / search for a regular expression (pattern)
+ E-/ search backwards for a regular expression
+ \ toggle search pattern coloring
+ ^ jump to the top of the message
+
+ In addition, many of the functions from the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx are available in the
+ pager, such as _\bd_\be_\bl_\be_\bt_\be_\b-_\bm_\be_\bs_\bs_\ba_\bg_\be or _\bc_\bo_\bp_\by_\b-_\bm_\be_\bs_\bs_\ba_\bg_\be (this is one advantage
+ over using an external pager to view messages).
+
+ Also, the internal pager supports a couple other advanced features.
+ For one, it will accept and translate the ``standard'' nroff sequences
+ forbold and underline. These sequences are a series of either the
+ letter, backspace (C-H), the letter again for bold or the letter,
+ backspace, _ for denoting underline. Mutt-ng will attempt to display
+ these in bold and underline respectively if your terminal supports
+ them. If not, you can use the bold and underline c\bco\bol\blo\bor\br objects to
+ specify a color or mono attribute for them.
+
+ Additionally, the internal pager supports the ANSI escape sequences
+ for character attributes. Mutt-ng translates them into the correct
+ color and character settings. The sequences Mutt-ng supports are: ESC
+ [ Ps;Ps;Ps;...;Ps m (see table below for possible values for Ps).
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b2_\b._\b5_\b._\b _\bA_\bN_\bS_\bI_\b _\bE_\bs_\bc_\ba_\bp_\be_\b _\bS_\be_\bq_\bu_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\bs
+ Value Attribute
+ 0 All Attributes Off
+ 1 Bold on
+ 4 Underline on
+ 5 Blink on
+ 7 Reverse video on
+ 3x Foreground color is x (see table below)
+ 4x Background color is x (see table below)
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b2_\b._\b6_\b._\b _\bA_\bN_\bS_\bI_\b _\bC_\bo_\bl_\bo_\br_\bs
+ Number Color
+ 0 black
+ 1 red
+ 2 green
+ 3 yellow
+ 4 blue
+ 5 magenta
+ 6 cyan
+ 7 white
+
+ Mutt-ng uses these attributes for handling text/enriched messages, and
+ they can also be used by an external a\bau\but\bto\bo_\b_v\bvi\bie\bew\bw script for highlighting
+ purposes. _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: If you change the colors for your display, for example
+ by changing the color associated with color2 for your xterm, then that
+ color will be used instead of green.
+
+5.3. Threaded Mode
+
+ When the mailbox is s\bso\bor\brt\bte\bed\bd by _\bt_\bh_\br_\be_\ba_\bd_\bs ,there are a few additional
+ functions available in the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx and _\bp_\ba_\bg_\be_\br modes.
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b2_\b._\b7_\b._\b _\bM_\bo_\bs_\bt_\b _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\bo_\bn_\bl_\by_\b _\bu_\bs_\be_\bd_\b _\bt_\bh_\br_\be_\ba_\bd_\b-_\br_\be_\bl_\ba_\bt_\be_\bd_\b _\bb_\bi_\bn_\bd_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bs
+ Key Function Description
+ C-D <delete-thread> delete all messages in the current thread
+ C-U <undelete-thread> undelete all messages in the current thread
+ C-N <next-thread> jump to the start of the next thread
+ C-P <previous-thread> jump to the start of the previous thread
+ C-R <read-thread> mark the current thread as read
+ E-d <delete-subthread> delete all messages in the current subthread
+ E-u <undelete-subthread> undelete all messages in the current
+ subthread
+ E-n <next-subthread> jump to the start of the next subthread
+ E-p <previous-subthread> jump to the start of the previous subthread
+ E-r <read-subthread> mark the current subthread as read
+ E-t <tag-thread> toggle the tag on the current thread
+ E-v <collapse-thread> toggle collapse for the current thread
+ E-V <collapse-all> toggle collapse for all threads
+ P <parent-message> jump to parent message in thread
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: Collapsing a thread displays only the first message in the
+ thread and hides the others. This is useful when threads contain so
+ many messages that you can only see a handful of threads onthe screen.
+ See %M in $\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt.
+
+ For example, you could use %?M?(#%03M)&(%4l)? in $\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt to
+ optionally display the number of hidden messages if the thread is
+ collapsed.
+
+ See also the $\b$s\bst\btr\bri\bic\bct\bt_\b_t\bth\bhr\bre\bea\bad\bds\bs variable.
+
+5.4. Miscellaneous Functions
+
+ <create-alias> (default: a)
+
+ Creates a new alias based upon the current message (or prompts for a
+ new one). Once editing is complete, an a\bal\bli\bia\bas\bs command is added to the
+ file specified by the $\b$a\bal\bli\bia\bas\bs_\b_f\bfi\bil\ble\be variable for future use. _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b:
+ Specifying an $\b$a\bal\bli\bia\bas\bs_\b_f\bfi\bil\ble\be does not add the aliases specified there-in,
+ you must also s\bso\bou\bur\brc\bce\be the file.
+
+ <check-traditional-pgp> (default: E-P)
+
+ This function will search the current message for content signed or
+ encrypted with PGP the "traditional" way, that is, without proper MIME
+ tagging. Technically, this function will temporarily change the MIME
+ content types of the body parts containing PGP data; this is similar
+ to the <edit-type> function's effect.
+
+ <display-toggle-weed> (default: h)
+
+ Toggles the weeding of message header fields specified by i\big\bgn\bno\bor\bre\be
+ commands.
+
+ <edit> (default: e)
+
+ This command (available in the ``index'' and ``pager'') allows you to
+ edit the raw current message as it's present in the mail folder. After
+ you have finished editing, the changed message will be appended to the
+ current folder, and the original message will be marked for deletion.
+
+ <edit-type> (default: ) (default: C-E on the attachment menu, and in
+ the pager and index menus; C-T on the compose menu)
+
+ This command is used to temporarily edit an attachment's content type
+ to fix, for instance, bogus character set parameters. When invoked
+ from the index or from the pager, you'll have the opportunity to edit
+ the top-level attachment's content type. On the a\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh-\b-m\bme\ben\bnu\bu, you can
+ change any attachment's content type. These changes are not
+ persistent, and get lost upon changing folders.
+
+ Note that this command is also available on the c\bco\bom\bmp\bpo\bos\bse\be-\b-m\bme\ben\bnu\bu .There,
+ it's used to fine-tune the properties of attachments you are going to
+ send.
+
+ <enter-command> (default: :)
+
+ This command is used to execute any command you would normally put in
+ a configuration file. A common use is to check the settings of
+ variables, or in conjunction with m\bma\bac\bcr\bro\bo to change settings on the fly.
+
+ <extract-keys> (default: C-K)
+
+ This command extracts PGP public keys from the current or tagged
+ message(s) and adds them to your PGP public key ring.
+
+ <forget-passphrase> (default: C-F)
+
+ This command wipes the passphrase(s) from memory. It is useful, if you
+ misspelled the passphrase.
- folder-hook . set sort=date-sent
+ <list-reply> (default: L)
+
+ Reply to the current or tagged message(s) by extracting any addresses
+ which match the regular expressions given by the l\bli\bis\bst\bts\bs commands, but
+ also honor any Mail-Followup-To header(s) if the $\b$h\bho\bon\bno\bor\br_\b_f\bfo\bol\bll\blo\bow\bwu\bup\bp_\b_t\bto\bo
+ configuration variable is set. Using this when replying to messages
+ posted to mailing lists helps avoid duplicate copies being sent to the
+ author of the message you are replying to.
+
+ <pipe-message> (default: )
+
+ Asks for an external Unix command and pipes the current or tagged
+ message(s) to it. The variables $\b$p\bpi\bip\bpe\be_\b_d\bde\bec\bco\bod\bde\be, $\b$p\bpi\bip\bpe\be_\b_s\bsp\bpl\bli\bit\bt,
+ $\b$p\bpi\bip\bpe\be_\b_d\bde\bec\bco\bod\bde\be and $\b$w\bwa\bai\bit\bt_\b_k\bke\bey\by control the exact behavior of this
+ function.
+
+ <resend-message> (default: E-e)
+
+ With resend-message, mutt takes the current message as a template for
+ a new message. This function is best described as "recall from
+ arbitrary folders". It can conveniently be used to forward MIME
+ messages while preserving the original mail structure. Note that the
+ amount of headers included here depends on the value of the $\b$w\bwe\bee\bed\bd
+ variable.
- \e[1m3.6. Keyboard macros\e[0m
+ This function is also available from the attachment menu. You can use
+ this to easily resend a message which was included with a bounce
+ message as a message/rfc822 body part.
- Usage: macro \e[4mmenu\e[24m \e[4mkey\e[24m \e[4msequence\e[24m [ \e[4mdescription\e[24m ]
+ <shell-escape> (default: !)
- Macros are useful when you would like a single key to perform a series
- of actions. When you press \e[4mkey\e[24m in menu \e[4mmenu\e[24m, Mutt will behave as if
- you had typed \e[4msequence\e[24m. So if you have a common sequence of commands
- you type, you can create a macro to execute those commands with a
- single key.
+ Asks for an external Unix command and executes it. The $\b$w\bwa\bai\bit\bt_\b_k\bke\bey\by can
+ be used to control whether Mutt-ng will wait for a key to be pressed
+ when the command returns (presumably to let the user read the output
+ of the command), based on the return status of the named command.
- \e[4mmenu\e[24m is the ``map'' which the macro will be bound. Multiple maps may
- be specified by separating multiple menu arguments by commas.
- Whitespace may not be used in between the menu arguments and the
- commas separating them.
+ <toggle-quoted> (default: T)
- \e[4mkey\e[24m and \e[4msequence\e[24m are expanded by the same rules as the ``key
- bindings''. There are some additions however. The first is that
- control characters in \e[4msequence\e[24m can also be specified as \e[4m^x\e[24m. In order
- to get a caret (`^'') you need to use \e[4m^^\e[24m. Secondly, to specify a
- certain key such as \e[4mup\e[24m or to invoke a function directly, you can use
- the format \e[4m<key\e[24m \e[4mname>\e[24m and \e[4m<function\e[24m \e[4mname>\e[24m. For a listing of key names
- see the section on ``key bindings''. Functions are listed in the
- ``function reference''.
+ The _\bp_\ba_\bg_\be_\br uses the $\b$q\bqu\buo\bot\bte\be_\b_r\bre\beg\bge\bex\bxp\bp variable to detect quoted text when
+ displaying the body of the message. This function toggles the
+ displayof the quoted material in the message. It is particularly
+ useful when are interested in just the response and there is a large
+ amount of quoted text in the way.
+
+ <skip-quoted> (default: S)
+
+ This function will go to the next line of non-quoted text which come
+ after a line of quoted text in the internal pager.
+
+6. Sending Mail
+
+ The following bindings are available in the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx for sending
+ messages.
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b2_\b._\b8_\b._\b _\bM_\bo_\bs_\bt_\b _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\bo_\bn_\bl_\by_\b _\bu_\bs_\be_\bd_\b _\bM_\ba_\bi_\bl_\b _\bC_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\bi_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\b _\bB_\bi_\bn_\bd_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bs
+ Key Function Description
+ m <compose> compose a new message
+ r <reply> reply to sender
+ g <group-reply> reply to all recipients
+ L <list-reply> reply to mailing list address
+ f <forward> forward message
+ b <bounce> bounce (remail) message
+ E-k <mail-key> mail a PGP public key to someone
+
+ Bouncing a message sends the message as is to the recipient you
+ specify. Forwarding a message allows you to add comments or modify the
+ message you are forwarding. These items are discussed in greater
+ detail in the next chapter f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bdi\bin\bng\bg-\b-m\bma\bai\bil\bl.
+
+6.1. Composing new messages
+
+ When you want to send an email using mutt-ng, simply press m on your
+ keyboard. Then, mutt-ng asks for the recipient via a prompt in the
+ last line:
+
+To:
+
+ After you've finished entering the recipient(s), press return. If you
+ want to send an email to more than one recipient, separate the email
+ addresses using the comma ",". Mutt-ng then asks you for the email
+ subject. Again, press return after you've entered it. After that,
+ mutt-ng got the most important information from you, and starts up an
+ editor where you can then enter your email.
+
+ The editor that is called is selected in the following way: you can
+ e.g. set it in the mutt-ng configuration:
+
+set editor = "vim +/^$/ -c ':set tw=72'"
+set editor = "nano"
+set editor = "emacs"
+
+ If you don't set your preferred editor in your configuration, mutt-ng
+ first looks whether the environment variable $VISUAL is set, and if
+ so, it takes its value as editor command. Otherwise, it has a look at
+ $EDITOR and takes its value if it is set. If no editor command can be
+ found, mutt-ng simply assumes vi(1) to be the default editor, since
+ it's the most widespread editor in the Unix world and it's pretty safe
+ to assume that it is installed and available.
+
+ When you've finished entering your message, save it and quit your
+ editor. Mutt-ng will then present you with a summary screen, the
+ compose menu. On the top, you see a summary of the most important
+ available key commands. Below that, you see the sender, the
+ recipient(s), Cc and/or Bcc recipient(s), the subject, the reply-to
+ address, and optionally information where the sent email will be
+ stored and whether it should be digitally signed and/or encrypted.
+
+ Below that, you see a list of "attachments". The mail you've just
+ entered before is also an attachment, but due to its special type
+ (it's plain text), it will be displayed as the normal message on the
+ receiver's side.
+
+ At this point, you can add more attachments, pressing a, you can edit
+ the recipient addresses, pressing t for the "To:" field, c for the
+ "Cc:" field, and b for the "Bcc: field. You can also edit the subject
+ the subject by simply pressing s or the email message that you've
+ entered before by pressing e. You will then again return to the
+ editor. You can even edit the sender, by pressing <esc>f, but this
+ shall only be used with caution.
+
+ Alternatively, you can configure mutt-ng in a way that most of the
+ above settings can be edited using the editor. Therefore, you only
+ need to add the following to your configuration:
+
+set edit_headers
+
+ Once you have finished editing the body of your mail message, you are
+ returned to the _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\be menu. The following options are available:
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b2_\b._\b9_\b._\b _\bM_\bo_\bs_\bt_\b _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\bo_\bn_\bl_\by_\b _\bu_\bs_\be_\bd_\b _\bC_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\be_\b _\bM_\be_\bn_\bu_\b _\bB_\bi_\bn_\bd_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bs
+ Key Function Description
+ a <attach-file> attach a file
+ A <attach-message> attach message(s) to the message
+ E-k <attach-key> attach a PGP public key
+ d <edit-description> edit description on attachment
+ D <detach-file> detach a file
+ t <edit-to> edit the To field
+ E-f <edit-from> edit the From field
+ r <edit-reply-to> edit the Reply-To field
+ c <edit-cc> edit the Cc field
+ b <edit-bcc> edit the Bcc field
+ y <send-message> send the message
+ s <edit-subject> edit the Subject
+ S <smime-menu> select S/MIME options
+ f <edit-fcc> specify an ``Fcc'' mailbox
+ p <pgp-menu> select PGP options
+ P <postpone-message> postpone this message until later
+ q <quit> quit (abort) sending the message
+ w <write-fcc> write the message to a folder
+ i <ispell> check spelling (if available on your system)
+ C-F <forget-passphrase> wipe passphrase(s) from memory
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: The attach-message function will prompt you for a folder to
+ attach messages from. You can now tag messages in that folder and
+ theywill be attached to the message you are sending. Note that
+ certainoperations like composing a new mail, replying, forwarding,
+ etc. are not permitted when you are in that folder. The %r in
+ $\b$s\bst\bta\bat\btu\bus\bs_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt will change to a 'A' to indicate that you are in
+ attach-message mode.
+
+6.2. Replying
+
+6.2.1. Simple Replies
+
+ When you want to reply to an email message, select it in the index
+ menu and then press r. Mutt-ng's behaviour is then similar to the
+ behaviour when you compose a message: first, you will be asked for the
+ recipient, then for the subject, and then, mutt-ng will start the
+ editor with the quote attribution and the quoted message. This can
+ e.g. look like the example below.
+
+On Mon, Mar 07, 2005 at 05:02:12PM +0100, Michael Svensson wrote:
+> Bill, can you please send last month's progress report to Mr.
+> Morgan? We also urgently need the cost estimation for the new

+> project will go live.
+
+ You can start editing the email message. It is strongly recommended to
+ put your answer _\bb_\be_\bl_\bo_\bw the quoted text and to only quote what is really
+ necessary and that you refer to. Putting your answer on top of the
+ quoted message, is, although very widespread, very often not
+ considered to be a polite way to answer emails.
+
+ The quote attribution is configurable, by default it is set to
+set attribution = "On %d, %n wrote:"
+
+ It can also be set to something more compact, e.g.
+set attribution = "attribution="* %n <%a> [%(%y-%m-%d %H:%M)]:"
+
+ The example above results in the following attribution:
+* Michael Svensson <svensson@foobar.com> [05-03-06 17:02]:
+> Bill, can you please send last month's progress report to Mr.
+> Morgan? We also urgently need the cost estimation for the new
+> production server that we want to set up before our customer's
+> project will go live.
+
+ Generally, try to keep your attribution short yet information-rich. It
+ is _\bn_\bo_\bt the right place for witty quotes, long "attribution" novels or
+ anything like that: the right place for such things is - if at all -
+ the email signature at the very bottom of the message.
+
+ When you're done with writing your message, save and quit the editor.
+ As before, you will return to the compose menu, which is used in the
+ same way as before.
+
+6.2.2. Group Replies
+
+ In the situation where a group of people uses email as a discussion,
+ most of the emails will have one or more recipients, and probably
+ several "Cc:" recipients. The group reply functionalityensures that
+ when you press g instead of r to do a reply, each and every recipient
+ that is contained in the original message will receive a copy of the
+ message, either as normal recipient or as "Cc:" recipient.
+
+6.2.3. List Replies
+
+ When you use mailing lists, it's generally better to send your reply
+ to a message only to the list instead of the list and the original
+ author. To make this easy to use, mutt-ng features list replies.
+
+ To do a list reply, simply press L. If the email contains a
+ Mail-Followup-To: header, its value will be used as reply address.
+ Otherwise, mutt-ng searches through all mail addresses in the original
+ message and tries to match them a list of regular expressions which
+ can be specified using the lists command. If any of the regular
+ expression matches, a mailing list address has been found, and it will
+ be used as reply address.
+
+lists linuxevent@luga\.at vuln-dev@ mutt-ng-users@
+
+ Nowadays, most mailing list software like GNU Mailman adds a
+ Mail-Followup-To: header to their emails anyway, so setting lists is
+ hardly ever necessary in practice.
+
+6.3. Editing the message header
+
+ When editing the header of your outgoing message, there are a couple
+ of special features available.
+
+ If you specify Fcc:_\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be Mutt-ng will pick up _\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be just as if
+ you had used the _\be_\bd_\bi_\bt_\b-_\bf_\bc_\bc function in the _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\be menu.
+
+ You can also attach files to your message by specifying
+Attach: filename [description]
+
+ where _\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be is the file to attach and _\bd_\be_\bs_\bc_\br_\bi_\bp_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn is an optional
+ string to use as the description of the attached file.
+
+ When replying to messages, if you remove the _\bI_\bn_\b-_\bR_\be_\bp_\bl_\by_\b-_\bT_\bo_\b: field from
+ the header field, Mutt-ng will not generate a _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\bs_\b: field, which
+ allows you to create a new message thread.
+
+ Also see the $\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bt_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs and $\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bto\bor\br_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs variables
+
+6.4. Using Mutt-ng with PGP
+
+ If you want to use PGP, you can specify
+Pgp: [E | S | S id]
+
+ ``E'' encrypts, ``S'' signs and ``S<id>'' signs with the given key,
+ setting $\b$p\bpg\bgp\bp_\b_s\bsi\big\bgn\bn_\b_a\bas\bs permanently.
+
+ If you have told mutt to PGP encrypt a message, it will guide you
+ through a key selection process when you try to send the message.
+ Mutt-ng will not ask you any questions about keys which have a
+ certified user ID matching one of the message recipients' mail
+ addresses. However, there may be situations in which there are several
+ keys, weakly certified user ID fields, or where no matching keys can
+ be found.
+
+ In these cases, you are dropped into a menu with a list of keys from
+ which you can select one. When you quit this menu, or mutt can't find
+ any matching keys, you are prompted for a user ID. You can, as
+ usually, abort this prompt using C-G. When you do so, mutt will return
+ to the compose screen.
+
+ Once you have successfully finished the key selection, the message
+ will be encrypted using the selected public keys, and sent out.
+
+ Most fields of the entries in the key selection menu (see also
+ $\b$p\bpg\bgp\bp_\b_e\ben\bnt\btr\bry\by_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt) have obvious meanings. But some explanations on the
+ capabilities, flags, and validity fields are in order.
+
+ The flags sequence (%f) will expand to one of the following flags:
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b2_\b._\b1_\b0_\b._\b _\bP_\bG_\bP_\b _\bK_\be_\by_\b _\bM_\be_\bn_\bu_\b _\bF_\bl_\ba_\bg_\bs
+ Flag Description
+ R The key has been revoked and can't be used.
+ X The key is expired and can't be used.
+ d You have marked the key as disabled.
+ c There are unknown critical self-signature packets.
+
+ The capabilities field (%c) expands to a two-character
+ sequencerepresenting a key's capabilities. The first character gives
+ the key's encryption capabilities: A minus sign (_\b- )means that the key
+ cannot be used for encryption. A dot (_\b. )means that it's marked as a
+ signature key in one of the user IDs, but may also be used for
+ encryption. The letter _\be indicates that this key can be used for
+ encryption.
+
+ The second character indicates the key's signing capabilities. Once
+ again, a ``_\b-'' implies ``not for signing'', ``_\b.'' implies that the key
+ is marked as an encryption key in one of the user-ids, and ``_\bs''
+ denotes a key which can be used for signing.
+
+ Finally, the validity field (%t) indicates how well-certified a
+ user-id is. A question mark (_\b?) indicates undefined validity, a minus
+ character (_\b-) marks an untrusted association, a space character means
+ a partially trusted association, and a plus character (_\b+ ) indicates
+ complete validity.
+
+6.5. Sending anonymous messages via mixmaster
+
+ You may also have configured mutt to co-operate with Mixmaster, an
+ anonymous remailer. Mixmaster permits you to send your messages
+ anonymously using a chain of remailers. Mixmaster support in mutt is
+ for mixmaster version 2.04 (beta 45 appears to be the latest) and
+ 2.03. It does not support earlier versions or the later so-called
+ version 3 betas, of which the latest appears to be called 2.9b23.
+
+ To use it, you'll have to obey certain restrictions. Most important,
+ you cannot use the Cc and Bcc headers. To tell Mutt-ng to use
+ mixmaster, you have to select a remailer chain, using the mix function
+ on the compose menu.
+
+ The chain selection screen is divided into two parts. In the (larger)
+ upper part, you get a list of remailers you may use. In the lower
+ part, you see the currently selected chain of remailers.
+
+ You can navigate in the chain using the chain-prev and chain-next
+ functions, which are by default bound to the left and right arrows and
+ to the h and l keys (think vi keyboard bindings). To insert a remailer
+ at the current chain position, use the insert function. To append a
+ remailer behind the current chain position, use select-entry or append
+ . You can also delete entries from the chain, using the corresponding
+ function. Finally, to abandon your changes, leave the menu, or accept
+ them pressing (by default) the Return key.
+
+ Note that different remailers do have different capabilities,
+ indicated in the %c entry of the remailer menu lines (see
+ $\b$m\bmi\bix\bx_\b_e\ben\bnt\btr\bry\by_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt). Most important is the ``middleman'' capability,
+ indicated by a capital ``M'': This means that the remailer in question
+ cannot be used as the final element of a chain, but will only forward
+ messages to other mixmaster remailers. For details on the other
+ capabilities, please have a look at the mixmaster documentation.
+
+7. Forwarding and Bouncing Mail
+
+ Often, it is necessary to forward mails to other people. Therefore,
+ mutt-ng supports forwarding messages in two different ways.
+
+ The first one is regular forwarding, as you probably know it from
+ other mail clients. You simply press f, enter the recipient email
+ address, the subject of the forwarded email, and then you can edit the
+ message to be forwarded in the editor. The forwarded message is
+ separated from the rest of the message via the two following markers:
+
+----- Forwarded message from Lucas User <luser@example.com> -----
+
+From: Lucas User <luser@example.com>
+Date: Thu, 02 Dec 2004 03:08:34 +0100
+To: Michael Random <mrandom@example.com>
+Subject: Re: blackmail
+
+Pay me EUR 50,000.- cash or your favorite stuffed animal will die
+a horrible death.
+
+----- End forwarded message -----
+
+ When you're done with editing the mail, save and quit the editor, and
+ you will return to the compose menu, the same menu you also encounter
+ when composing or replying to mails.
+
+ The second mode of forwarding emails with mutt-ng is the so-called
+ _\bb_\bo_\bu_\bn_\bc_\bi_\bn_\bg: when you bounce an email to another address, it will be sent
+ in practically the same format you send it (except for headers that
+ are created during transporting the message). To bounce a message,
+ press b and enter the recipient email address. By default, you are
+ then asked whether you really want to bounce the message to the
+ specified recipient. If you answer with yes, the message will then be
+ bounced.
+
+ To the recipient, the bounced email will look as if he got it like a
+ regular email where he was Bcc: recipient. The only possibility to
+ find out whether it was a bounced email is to carefully study the
+ email headers and to find out which host really sent the email.
+
+8. Postponing Mail
+
+ At times it is desirable to delay sending a message that you have
+ already begun to compose. When the _\bp_\bo_\bs_\bt_\bp_\bo_\bn_\be_\b-_\bm_\be_\bs_\bs_\ba_\bg_\be function is used
+ in the _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\be menu, the body of your message and attachments are
+ stored in the mailbox specified by the $\b$p\bpo\bos\bst\btp\bpo\bon\bne\bed\bd variable. This means
+ that you can recall the message even if you exit Mutt-ng and then
+ restart it at a later time.
+
+ Once a message is postponed, there are several ways to resume it. From
+ the command line you can use the ``-p'' option, or if you _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bo_\bs_\be a
+ new message from the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx or _\bp_\ba_\bg_\be_\br you will be prompted if postponed
+ messages exist. If multiple messages are currently postponed, the
+ _\bp_\bo_\bs_\bt_\bp_\bo_\bn_\be_\bd menu will pop up and you can select which message you would
+ like to resume.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: If you postpone a reply to a message, the reply setting of the
+ message is only updated when you actually finish the message and send
+ it. Also, you must be in the same folder with the message you replied
+ to for the status of the message to be updated.
+
+ See also the $\b$p\bpo\bos\bst\btp\bpo\bon\bne\be quad-option.

+1. Locations of Configuration Files
+
+ While the default configuration (or ``preferences'') make Mutt-ng
+ usable right out of the box, it is often desirable to tailor Mutt-ng
+ to suit your own tastes. When Mutt-ng is first invoked, it will
+ attempt to read the ``system'' configuration file (defaults set by
+ your local system administrator), unless the ``-n'' c\bco\bom\bmm\bma\ban\bnd\bdl\bli\bin\bne\be option
+ is specified. This file is typically /usr/local/share/muttng/Muttngrc
+ or /etc/Muttngrc , Mutt-ng users will find this file in
+ /usr/local/share/muttng/Muttrc or /etc/Muttngrc. Mutt will next look
+ for a file named .muttrc in your home directory, Mutt-ng will look for
+ .muttngrc. If this file does not exist and your home directory has a
+ subdirectory named .mutt , mutt try to load a file named
+ .muttng/muttngrc.
+
+ .muttrc (or .muttngrc for Mutt-ng) is the file where you will usually
+ place your c\bco\bom\bmm\bma\ban\bnd\bds\bs to configure Mutt-ng.
+
+2. Basic Syntax of Initialization Files
+
+ An initialization file consists of a series of c\bco\bom\bmm\bma\ban\bnd\bds\bs. Each line of
+ the file may contain one or more commands. When multiple commands are
+ used, they must be separated by a semicolon (;).
+set realname='Mutt-ng user' ; ignore x-
+
+ The hash mark, or pound sign (``#''), is used as a ``comment''
+ character. You can use it to annotate your initialization file. All
+ text after the comment character to the end of the line is ignored.
+ For example,
+
+my_hdr X-Disclaimer: Why are you listening to me? # This is a comment
+
+ Single quotes (') and double quotes (") can be used to quote strings
+ which contain spaces or other special characters. The difference
+ between the two types of quotes is similar to that of many popular
+ shell programs, namely that a single quote is used to specify a
+ literal string (one that is not interpreted for shell variables or
+ quoting with a backslash (see next paragraph), while double quotes
+ indicate a string for which should be evaluated. For example, backtics
+ are evaluated inside of double quotes, but _\bn_\bo_\bt for single quotes.
+
+ \ quotes the next character, just as in shells such as bash and zsh.
+ For example, if want to put quotes ``"'' inside of a string, you can
+ use ``\'' to force the next character to be a literal instead of
+ interpreted character.
+set realname="Michael \"MuttDude\" Elkins"
+
+ ``\\'' means to insert a literal ``\'' into the line. ``\n'' and
+ ``\r'' have their usual C meanings of linefeed and carriage-return,
+ respectively.
+
+ A \ at the end of a line can be used to split commands over multiple
+ lines, provided that the split points don't appear in the middle of
+ command names.
+
+ Please note that, unlike the various shells, mutt-ng interprets a
+ ``\'' at the end of a line also in comments. This allows you to
+ disable a command split over multiple lines with only one ``#''.
+
+# folder-hook . \
+set realname="Michael \"MuttDude\" Elkins"
+
+ When testing your config files, beware the following caveat. The
+ backslash at the end of the commented line extends the current line
+ with the next line - then referred to as a ``continuation line''. As
+ the first line is commented with a hash (#) all following continuation
+ lines are also part of a comment and therefore are ignored, too. So
+ take care of comments when continuation lines are involved within your
+ setup files!
+
+ Abstract example:
- The advantage with using function names directly is that the macros
- will work regardless of the current key bindings, so they are not
- dependent on the user having particular key definitions. This makes
- them more robust and portable, and also facilitates defining of macros
- in files used by more than one user (eg. the system Muttrc).
+line1\
+line2a # line2b\
+line3\
+line4
+line5
- Optionally you can specify a descriptive text after \e[4msequence\e[24m, which is
- shown in the help screens.
+ line1 ``continues'' until line4. however, the part after the # is a
+ comment which includes line3 and line4. line5 is a new line of its own
+ and thus is interpreted again.
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mMacro definitions (if any) listed in the help screen(s), are
- silently truncated at the screen width, and are not wrapped.
+ The commands understood by mutt are explained in the next paragraphs.
+ For a complete list, see the c\bco\bom\bmm\bma\ban\bnd\bds\bs.
- \e[1m3.7. Using color and mono video attributes\e[0m
+3. Expansion within variables
- Usage: color \e[4mobject\e[24m \e[4mforeground\e[24m \e[4mbackground\e[24m [ \e[4mregexp\e[24m ]
- Usage: color index \e[4mforeground\e[24m \e[4mbackground\e[24m \e[4mpattern\e[0m
- Usage: uncolor index \e[4mpattern\e[24m [ \e[4mpattern\e[24m ... ]
+ Besides just assign static content to variables, there's plenty of
+ ways of adding external and more or less dynamic content.
- If your terminal supports color, you can spice up Mutt by creating
- your own color scheme. To define the color of an object (type of
- information), you must specify both a foreground color \e[1mand \e[22ma
- background color (it is not possible to only specify one or the
- other).
+3.1. Commands' Output
- \e[4mobject\e[24m can be one of:
+ It is possible to substitute the output of a Unix command in an
+ initialization file. This is accomplished by enclosing the command in
+ backquotes (``) as in, for example:
- · attachment
+my_hdr X-Operating-System: `uname -a`
- · body (match \e[4mregexp\e[24m in the body of messages)
+ The output of the Unix command ``uname -a'' will be substituted before
+ the line is parsed. Note that since initialization files are line
+ oriented, only the first line of output from the Unix command will be
+ substituted.
- · bold (hiliting bold patterns in the body of messages)
+3.2. Environment Variables
- · error (error messages printed by Mutt)
+ UNIX environments can be accessed like the way it is done in shells
+ like sh and bash: Prepend the name of the environment by a ``$'' sign.
+ For example,
- · header (match \e[4mregexp\e[24m in the message header)
+set record=+sent_on_$HOSTNAME
- · hdrdefault (default color of the message header in the pager)
+ sets the $\b$r\bre\bec\bco\bor\brd\bd variable to the string _\b+_\bs_\be_\bn_\bt_\b__\bo_\bn_\b_ and appends the
+ value of the evironment variable $HOSTNAME.
- · index (match \e[4mpattern\e[24m in the message index)
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: There will be no warning if an environment variable is not
+ defined. The result will of the expansion will then be empty.
- · indicator (arrow or bar used to indicate the current item in a
- menu)
+3.3. Configuration Variables
- · markers (the ``+'' markers at the beginning of wrapped lines in the
- pager)
+ As for environment variables, the values of all configuration
+ variables as string can be used in the same way, too. For example,
- · message (informational messages)
+set imap_home_namespace = $folder
- · normal
+ would set the value of $\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_h\bho\bom\bme\be_\b_n\bna\bam\bme\bes\bsp\bpa\bac\bce\be to the value to which
+ $\b$f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br is _\bc_\bu_\br_\br_\be_\bn_\bt_\bl_\by set to.
- · quoted (text matching ``$quote_regexp'' in the body of a message)
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: There're no logical links established in such cases so that the
+ the value for $\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_h\bho\bom\bme\be_\b_n\bna\bam\bme\bes\bsp\bpa\bac\bce\be won't change even if $\b$f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br gets
+ changed.
- · quoted1, quoted2, ..., quoted\e[1mN \e[22m(higher levels of quoting)
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: There will be no warning if a configuration variable is not
+ defined or is empty. The result will of the expansion will then be
+ empty.
- · search (hiliting of words in the pager)
+3.4. Self-Defined Variables
- · signature
+ Mutt-ng flexibly allows users to define their own variables. To avoid
+ conflicts with the standard set and to prevent misleading error
+ messages, there's a reserved namespace for them: all user-defined
+ variables must be prefixed with user_ and can be used just like any
+ ordinary configuration or environment variable.
- · status (mode lines used to display info about the mailbox or
- message)
+ For example, to view the manual, users can either define two macros
+ like the following
- · tilde (the ``~'' used to pad blank lines in the pager)
+macro generic <F1> "!less -r /path/to/manual" "Show manual"
+macro pager <F1> "!less -r /path/to/manual" "Show manual"
- · tree (thread tree drawn in the message index and attachment menu)
+ for generic, pager and index .The alternative is to define a custom
+ variable like so:
- · underline (hiliting underlined patterns in the body of messages)
+set user_manualcmd = "!less -r /path/to_manual"
+macro generic <F1> "$user_manualcmd<enter>" "Show manual"
+macro pager <F1> "$user_manualcmd<enter>" "Show manual"
+macro index <F1> "$user_manualcmd<enter>" "Show manual"
- \e[4mforeground\e[24m and \e[4mbackground\e[24m can be one of the following:
+ to re-use the command sequence as in:
- · white
+macro index <F2> "$user_manualcmd | grep '\^[ ]\\+~. '" "Show Patterns"
- · black
+ Using this feature, arbitrary sequences can be defined once and
+ recalled and reused where necessary. More advanced scenarios could
+ include to save a variable's value at the beginning of macro sequence
+ and restore it at end.
- · green
+ When the variable is first defined, the first value it gets assigned
+ is also the initial value to which it can be reset using the reset
+ command.
- · magenta
+ The complete removal is done via the unset keyword.
- · blue
+ After the following sequence:
- · cyan
+set user_foo = 42
+set user_foo = 666
- · yellow
+ the variable $user_foo has a current value of 666 and an initial of
+ 42. The query
- · red
+set ?user_foo
- · default
+ will show 666. After doing the reset via
- · color\e[4mx\e[0m
+reset user_foo
- \e[4mforeground\e[24m can optionally be prefixed with the keyword bright to make
- the foreground color boldfaced (e.g., brightred).
+ a following query will give 42 as the result. After unsetting it via
- If your terminal supports it, the special keyword \e[4mdefault\e[24m can be used
- as a transparent color. The value \e[4mbrightdefault\e[24m is also valid. If
- Mutt is linked against the \e[4mS-Lang\e[24m library, you also need to set the
- \e[4mCOLORFGBG\e[24m environment variable to the default colors of your terminal
- for this to work; for example (for Bourne-like shells):
+unset user_foo
- set COLORFGBG="green;black"
- export COLORFGBG
+ any query or operation (except the noted expansion within other
+ statements) will lead to an error message.
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mThe \e[4mS-Lang\e[24m library requires you to use the \e[4mlightgray\e[24m and \e[4mbrown\e[0m
- keywords instead of \e[4mwhite\e[24m and \e[4myellow\e[24m when setting this variable.
+3.5. Pre-Defined Variables
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mThe uncolor command can be applied to the index object only. It
- removes entries from the list. You \e[1mmust \e[22mspecify the same pattern
- specified in the color command for it to be removed. The pattern
- ``*'' is a special token which means to clear the color index list of
- all entries.
+ In order to allow users to share one setup over a number of different
+ machines without having to change its contents, there's a number of
+ pre-defined variables. These are prefixed with muttng_ and are
+ read-only, i.e. they cannot be set, unset or reset. The reference
+ chapter lists all available variables.
- Mutt also recognizes the keywords \e[4mcolor0\e[24m, \e[4mcolor1\e[24m, ..., \e[4mcolor\e[24m\e[1mN-1 \e[22m(\e[1mN\e[0m
- being the number of colors supported by your terminal). This is
- useful when you remap the colors for your display (for example by
- changing the color associated with \e[4mcolor2\e[24m for your xterm), since color
- names may then lose their normal meaning.
+ _\bP_\bl_\be_\ba_\bs_\be_\b _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bs_\bu_\bl_\bt_\b _\bt_\bh_\be_\b _\bl_\bo_\bc_\ba_\bl_\b _\bc_\bo_\bp_\by_\b _\bo_\bf_\b _\by_\bo_\bu_\br_\b _\bm_\ba_\bn_\bu_\ba_\bl_\b _\bf_\bo_\br_\b _\bt_\bh_\be_\bi_\br_\b _\bv_\ba_\bl_\bu_\be_\bs_\b _\ba_\bs_\b _\bt_\bh_\be_\by
+ _\bm_\ba_\by_\b _\bd_\bi_\bf_\bf_\be_\br_\b _\bf_\br_\bo_\bm_\b _\bd_\bi_\bf_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bt_\b _\bm_\ba_\bn_\bu_\ba_\bl_\b _\bs_\bo_\bu_\br_\bc_\be_\bs_\b. Where the manual is
+ installed in can be queried (already using such a variable) by
+ running:
- If your terminal does not support color, it is still possible change
- the video attributes through the use of the ``mono'' command:
+$ muttng -Q muttng_docdir
- Usage: mono
\e[4m<object>
\e[24m
\e[4m<attribute>
\e[24m [
\e[4mregexp
\e[24m ]
- Usage: mono index \e[4mattribute\e[24m \e[4mpattern\e[0m
- Usage: unmono index \e[4mpattern\e[24m [ \e[4mpattern\e[24m ... ]
+ To extend the example for viewing the manual via self-defined
+ variables, it can be made more readable and more portable by changing
+ the real path in:
- where \e[4mattribute\e[24m is one of the following:
+set user_manualcmd = '!less -r /path/to_manual'
- · none
+ to:
- · bold
+set user_manualcmd = "!less -r $muttng_docdir/manual.txt"
- · underline
+ which works everywhere if a manual is installed.
- · reverse
+ Please note that by the type of quoting, muttng determines when to
+ expand these values: when it finds double quotes, the value will be
+ expanded during reading the setup files but when it finds single
+ quotes, it'll expand it at runtime as needed.
- · standout
+ For example, the statement
- \e[1m3.8. Ignoring (weeding) unwanted message headers\e[0m
+folder-hook . "set user_current_folder = $muttng_folder_name"
- Usage: [un]ignore \e[4mpattern\e[24m [ \e[4mpattern\e[24m ... ]
+ will be already be translated to the following when reading the
+ startup files:
- Messages often have many header fields added by automatic processing
- systems, or which may not seem useful to display on the screen. This
- command allows you to specify header fields which you don't normally
- want to see.
+folder-hook . "set user_current_folder = some_folder"
- You do not need to specify the full header field name. For example,
- ``ignore content-'' will ignore all header fields that begin with the
- pattern ``content-''. ``ignore *'' will ignore all headers.
+ with some_folder being the name of the first folder muttng opens. On
+ the contrary,
- To remove a previously added token from the list, use the ``unignore''
- command. The ``unignore'' command will make Mutt display headers with
- the given pattern. For example, if you do ``ignore x-'' it is
- possible to ``unignore x-mailer''.
+folder-hook . 'set user_current_folder = $muttng_folder_name'
- ``unignore *'' will remove all tokens from the ignore list.
+ will be executed at runtime because of the single quotes so that
+ user_current_folder will always have the value of the currently opened
+ folder.
- For example:
+ A more practical example is:
- # Sven's draconian header weeding
- ignore *
- unignore from date subject to cc
- unignore organization organisation x-mailer: x-newsreader: x-mailing-list:
- unignore posted-to:
+folder-hook . 'source ~/.mutt/score-$muttng_folder_name'
- \e[1m3.9. Alternative addresses\e[0m
+ which can be used to source files containing score commands depending
+ on the folder the user enters.
- Usage: [un]alternates \e[4mregexp\e[24m [ \e[4mregexp\e[24m ... ]
+3.6. Type Conversions
- With various functions, mutt will treat messages differently,
- depending on whether you sent them or whether you received them from
- someone else. For instance, when replying to a message that you sent
- to a different party, mutt will automatically suggest to send the
- response to the original message's recipients -- responding to
- yourself won't make much sense in many cases. (See ``$reply_to''.)
+ A note about variable's types during conversion: internally values are
+ stored in internal types but for any dump/query or set operation
+ they're converted to and from string. That means that there's no need
+ to worry about types when referencing any variable. As an example, the
+ following can be used without harm (besides makeing muttng very likely
+ behave strange):
- Many users receive e-mail under a number of different addresses. To
- fully use mutt's features here, the program must be able to recognize
- what e-mail addresses you receive mail under. That's the purpose of
- the alternates command: It takes a list of regular expressions, each
- of which can identify an address under which you receive e-mail.
+set read_inc = 100
+set folder = $read_inc
+set read_inc = $folder
+set user_magic_number = 42
+set folder = $user_magic_number
- To remove a regular expression from this list, use the unalternates
- command.
+4. Defining/Using aliases
- \e[1m3.10. Mailing lists\e[0m
+ Usage: alias_\bk_\be_\by_\b _\ba_\bd_\bd_\br_\be_\bs_\bs_\b _\b[_\b,_\b _\ba_\bd_\bd_\br_\be_\bs_\bs_\b,_\b._\b._\b._\b]
- Usage: [un]lists \e[4mregexp\e[24m [ \e[4mregexp\e[24m ... ]
- Usage: [un]subscribe \e[4mregexp\e[24m [ \e[4mregexp\e[24m ... ]
+ It's usually very cumbersome to remember or type out the address of
+ someone you are communicating with. Mutt-ng allows you to create
+ ``aliases'' which map a short string to a full address.
- Mutt has a few nice features for ``handling mailing lists''. In order
- to take advantage of them, you must specify which addresses belong to
- mailing lists, and which mailing lists you are subscribed to. Once
- you have done this, the ``list-reply'' function will work for all
- known lists. Additionally, when you send a message to a subscribed
- list, mutt will add a Mail-Followup-To header to tell other users'
- mail user agents not to send copies of replies to your personal
- address. Note that the Mail-Followup-To header is a non-standard
- extension which is not supported by all mail user agents. Adding it
- is not bullet-proof against receiving personal CCs of list messages.
- Also note that the generation of the Mail-Followup-To header is
- controlled by the ``$followup_to'' configuration variable.
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: if you want to create an alias for a group (by specifying more
+ than one address), you _\bm_\bu_\bs_\bt separate the addresses with a comma
+ (``,'').
- More precisely, Mutt maintains lists of patterns for the addresses of
- known and subscribed mailing lists. Every subscribed mailing list is
- known. To mark a mailing list as known, use the ``lists'' command. To
- mark it as subscribed, use ``subscribe''.
+ To remove an alias or aliases (``*'' means all aliases):
- You can use regular expressions with both commands. To mark all
- messages sent to a specific bug report's address on mutt's bug
- tracking system as list mail, for instance, you could say ``subscribe
- [0-9]*@bugs.guug.de''. Often, it's sufficient to just give a portion
- of the list's e-mail address.
+ Usage: unalias_\b[_\b*_\b _\b|_\b _\bk_\be_\by_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b _\b]
- Specify as much of the address as you need to to remove ambiguity.
- For example, if you've subscribed to the Mutt mailing list, you will
- receive mail addresssed to \e[4mmutt-users@mutt.org\e[24m. So, to tell Mutt that
- this is a mailing list, you could add ``lists mutt-users'' to your
- initialization file. To tell mutt that you are subscribed to it, add
- ``subscribe mutt-users'' to your initialization file instead. If you
- also happen to get mail from someone whose address is \e[4mmutt-\e[0m
- \e[4musers@example.com\e[24m, you could use ``lists mutt-users@mutt.org'' or
- ``subscribe mutt-users@mutt.org'' to match only mail from the actual
- list.
+alias muttdude me@cs.hmc.edu (Michael Elkins)
+alias theguys manny, moe, jack
- The ``unlists'' command is used to remove a token from the list of
- known and subscribed mailing-lists. Use ``unlists *'' to remove all
- tokens.
+ Unlike other mailers, Mutt-ng doesn't require aliases to be defined in
+ a special file. The alias command can appear anywhere in a
+ configuration file, as long as this file is s\bso\bou\bur\brc\bce\be. Consequently, you
+ can have multiple alias files, or you can have all aliases defined in
+ your muttrc.
- To remove a mailing list from the list of subscribed mailing lists,
- but keep it on the list of known mailing lists, use ``unsubscribe''.
+ On the other hand, the <create-alias> function can use only one file,
+ the one pointed to by the $\b$a\bal\bli\bia\bas\bs_\b_f\bfi\bil\ble\be variable (which is ~/.muttrc by
+ default). This file is not special either, in the sense that Mutt-ng
+ will happily append aliases to any file, but in order for the new
+ aliases to take effect you need to explicitly s\bso\bou\bur\brc\bce\be this file too.
- \e[1m3.11. Using Multiple spool mailboxes\e[0m
+ For example:
- Usage: mbox-hook [!]\e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mmailbox\e[0m
+source /usr/local/share/Mutt-ng.aliases
+source ~/.mail_aliases
+set alias_file=~/.mail_aliases
- This command is used to move read messages from a specified mailbox to
- a different mailbox automatically when you quit or change folders.
- \e[4mpattern\e[24m is a regular expression specifying the mailbox to treat as a
- ``spool'' mailbox and \e[4mmailbox\e[24m specifies where mail should be saved
- when read.
+ To use aliases, you merely use the alias at any place in mutt where
+ muttprompts for addresses, such as the _\bT_\bo_\b: or _\bC_\bc_\b: prompt. You can also
+ enter aliases in your editor at the appropriate headers if you have
+ the $\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bto\bor\br_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs variable set.
- Unlike some of the other \e[4mhook\e[24m commands, only the \e[4mfirst\e[24m matching
- pattern is used (it is not possible to save read mail in more than a
- single mailbox).
+ In addition, at the various address prompts, you can use the tab
+ character to expand a partial alias to the full alias. If there are
+ multiple matches, mutt will bring up a menu with the matching aliases.
+ In order to be presented with the full list of aliases, you must hit
+ tab with out a partial alias, such as at the beginning of the prompt
+ or after a comma denoting multiple addresses.
- \e[1m3.12. Defining mailboxes which receive mail\e[0m
+ In the alias menu, you can select as many aliases as you want with the
+ _\bs_\be_\bl_\be_\bc_\bt_\b-_\be_\bn_\bt_\br_\by key (default: RET), and use the _\be_\bx_\bi_\bt key (default: q) to
+ return to the address prompt.
- Usage: [un]mailboxes [!]\e[4mfilename\e[24m [ \e[4mfilename\e[24m ... ]
+5. Changing the default key bindings
- This command specifies folders which can receive mail and which will
- be checked for new messages. By default, the main menu status bar
- displays how many of these folders have new messages.
+ Usage: bind_\bm_\ba_\bp_\b _\bk_\be_\by_\b _\bf_\bu_\bn_\bc_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn
- When changing folders, pressing \e[4mspace\e[24m will cycle through folders with
- new mail.
+ This command allows you to change the default key bindings (operation
+ invoked when pressing a key).
- Pressing TAB in the directory browser will bring up a menu showing the
- files specified by the mailboxes command, and indicate which contain
- new messages. Mutt will automatically enter this mode when invoked
- from the command line with the -y option.
+ _\bm_\ba_\bp specifies in which menu the binding belongs. Multiple maps may be
+ specified by separating them with commas (no additional whitespace
+ isallowed). The currently defined maps are:
- The ``unmailboxes'' command is used to remove a token from the list of
- folders which receive mail. Use ``unmailboxes *'' to remove all
- tokens.
+ generic
+ This is not a real menu, but is used as a fallback for all of
+ the other menus except for the pager and editor modes. If a key
+ is not defined in another menu, Mutt-ng will look for a binding
+ to use in this menu. This allows you to bind a key to a certain
+ function in multiple menus instead of having multiple bind
+ statements to accomplish the same task.
+
+ alias
+ The alias menu is the list of your personal aliases as defined
+ in your muttrc. It is the mapping from a short alias name to
+ the full email address(es) of the recipient(s).
+
+ attach
+ The attachment menu is used to access the attachments on
+ received messages.
+
+ browser
+ The browser is used for both browsing the local directory
+ structure, and for listing all of your incoming mailboxes.
+
+ editor
+ The editor is the line-based editor the user enters text data.
+
+ index
+ The index is the list of messages contained in a mailbox.
+
+ compose
+ The compose menu is the screen used when sending a new message.
+
+ pager
+ The pager is the mode used to display message/attachment data,
+ and help listings.
+
+ pgp
+ The pgp menu is used to select the OpenPGP keys used for
+ encrypting outgoing messages.
+
+ postpone
+ The postpone menu is similar to the index menu, except is used
+ when recalling a message the user was composing, but saved
+ until later.
+
+ _\bk_\be_\by is the key (or key sequence) you wish to bind. To specify a
+ control character, use the sequence _\b\_\bC_\bx, where _\bx is the letter of the
+ control character (for example, to specify control-A use ``\Ca'').
+ Note that the case of _\bx as well as _\b\_\bC is ignored, so that _\b\_\bC_\bA, _\b\_\bC_\ba,
+ _\b\_\bc_\bA and _\b\_\bc_\ba are all equivalent. An alternative form is to specify the
+ key as a three digit octal number prefixed with a ``\'' (for example
+ _\b\_\b1_\b7_\b7 is equivalent to _\b\_\bc_\b?).
+
+ In addition, _\bk_\be_\by may consist of:
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b3_\b._\b1_\b._\b _\bA_\bl_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\ba_\bt_\bi_\bv_\be_\b _\bK_\be_\by_\b _\bN_\ba_\bm_\be_\bs
+ Sequence Description
+ \t tab
+ <tab> tab
+ <backtab> backtab / shift-tab
+ \r carriage return
+ \n newline
+ \e escape
+ <esc> escape
+ <up> up arrow
+ <down> down arrow
+ <left> left arrow

+ <pagedown> Page Down
+ <backspace> Backspace
+ <delete> Delete

+ <enter> Enter
+ <return> Return
+ <home> Home
+ <end> End
+ <space> Space bar
+ <f1> function key 1
+ <f10> function key 10
+
+ _\bk_\be_\by does not need to be enclosed in quotes unless it contains a space
+ (`` '').
+
+ _\bf_\bu_\bn_\bc_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn specifies which action to take when _\bk_\be_\by is pressed. For a
+ complete list of functions, see the f\bfu\bun\bnc\bct\bti\bio\bon\bns\bs. The special function
+ noop unbinds the specified key sequence.
+
+6. Defining aliases for character sets
+
+ Usage: c\bch\bha\bar\brs\bse\bet\bt-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk_\ba_\bl_\bi_\ba_\bs_\bc_\bh_\ba_\br_\bs_\be_\bt
+
+ Usage: i\bic\bco\bon\bnv\bv-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk_\bc_\bh_\ba_\br_\bs_\be_\bt_\bl_\bo_\bc_\ba_\bl_\b-_\bc_\bh_\ba_\br_\bs_\be_\bt
+
+ The c\bch\bha\bar\brs\bse\bet\bt-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk command defines an alias for a character set. This is
+ useful to properly display messages which are tagged with a character
+ set name not known to mutt.
+
+ The i\bic\bco\bon\bnv\bv-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk command defines a system-specific name for a character
+ set. This is helpful when your systems character conversion library
+ insists on using strange, system-specific names for character sets.
+
+7. Setting variables based upon mailbox
+
+ Usage: f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk [!]_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd
+
+ It is often desirable to change settings based on which mailbox you
+ are reading. The f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk command provides a method by which you
+ can execute any configuration command. _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp is a regular expression
+ specifying in which mailboxes to execute _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd before loading. If a
+ mailbox matches multiple f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk's, they are executed in the order
+ given in the muttrc.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: if you use the ``!'' shortcut for $\b$s\bsp\bpo\boo\bol\blf\bfi\bil\ble\be at the beginning of
+ the pattern, you must place it inside of double or single quotes in
+ order to distinguish it from the logical _\bn_\bo_\bt operator for the
+ expression.
+
+ Note that the settings are _\bn_\bo_\bt restored when you leave the mailbox.
+ For example, a command action to perform is to change the sorting
+ methodbased upon the mailbox being read:
+
+folder-hook mutt set sort=threads
+
+ However, the sorting method is not restored to its previous value when
+ reading a different mailbox. To specify a _\bd_\be_\bf_\ba_\bu_\bl_\bt command, use the
+ pattern ``.'':
+
+folder-hook . set sort=date-sent
+
+8. Keyboard macros
+
+ Usage: macro_\bm_\be_\bn_\bu_\b _\bk_\be_\by_\b _\bs_\be_\bq_\bu_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\b _\b[_\bd_\be_\bs_\bc_\br_\bi_\bp_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\b]
+
+ Macros are useful when you would like a single key to perform a series
+ of actions. When you press _\bk_\be_\by in menu _\bm_\be_\bn_\bu ,Mutt-ng will behave as if
+ you had typed _\bs_\be_\bq_\bu_\be_\bn_\bc_\be. So if you have a common sequence of commands
+ you type, you can create a macro to execute those commands with a
+ singlekey.
+
+ _\bm_\be_\bn_\bu is the m\bma\bap\bps\bs which the macro will be bound. Multiple maps may be
+ specified by separating multiple menu arguments by commas. Whitespace
+ may not be used in between the menu arguments and thecommas separating
+ them.
+
+ _\bk_\be_\by and _\bs_\be_\bq_\bu_\be_\bn_\bc_\be are expanded by the same rules as the b\bbi\bin\bnd\bd. There are
+ some additions however. The first is that control characters in
+ _\bs_\be_\bq_\bu_\be_\bn_\bc_\be can also be specified as ^x. In order to get a caret (`^'')
+ you need to specify it twice. Secondly, to specify a certain key such
+ as _\bu_\bp or to invoke a function directly, you can use the format _\b<_\bk_\be_\by
+ _\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\b> and _\b<_\bf_\bu_\bn_\bc_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\b _\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\b> .For a listing of key names see the section
+ on b\bbi\bin\bnd\bd. Functions are listed in the f\bfu\bun\bnc\bct\bti\bio\bon\bns\bs.
+
+ The advantage with using function names directly is that the macros
+ willwork regardless of the current key bindings, so they are not
+ dependent on the user having particular key definitions. This makes
+ them more robustand portable, and also facilitates defining of macros
+ in files used by more than one user (eg. the system Muttngrc).
+
+ Optionally you can specify a descriptive text after _\bs_\be_\bq_\bu_\be_\bn_\bc_\be, which is
+ shown in the help screens.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: Macro definitions (if any) listed in the help screen(s), are
+ silently truncated at the screen width, and are not wrapped.
+
+9. Using color and mono video attributes
+
+ Usage: color_\bo_\bb_\bj_\be_\bc_\bt_\b _\bf_\bo_\br_\be_\bg_\br_\bo_\bu_\bn_\bd_\b _\bb_\ba_\bc_\bk_\bg_\br_\bo_\bu_\bn_\bd_\b _\b[_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b]
+
+ Usage: color_\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx_\b _\bf_\bo_\br_\be_\bg_\br_\bo_\bu_\bn_\bd_\b _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn
+
+ Usage: uncolor_\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx_\b _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\b _\b[_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ If your terminal supports color, you can spice up Mutt-ng by creating
+ your own color scheme. To define the color of an object (type of
+ information), you must specify both a foreground color _\ba_\bn_\bd a
+ background color (it is not possible to only specify one or the
+ other).
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mnew mail is detected by comparing the last modification time to
- the last access time. Utilities like biff or frm or any other program
- which accesses the mailbox might cause Mutt to never detect new mail
- for that mailbox if they do not properly reset the access time.
- Backup tools are another common reason for updated access times.
+ _\bo_\bb_\bj_\be_\bc_\bt can be one of:
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mthe filenames in the mailboxes command are resolved when the
- command is executed, so if these names contain ``shortcut characters''
- (such as ``='' and ``!''), any variable definition that affect these
- characters (like ``$folder'' and ``$spoolfile'') should be executed

+ * green
+ * magenta
+ * blue
+ * cyan
+ * yellow
+ * red
+ * default
+ * color_\bx
+
+ _\bf_\bo_\br_\be_\bg_\br_\bo_\bu_\bn_\bd can optionally be prefixed with the keyword bright to make
+ the foreground color boldfaced (e.g., brightred).
+
+ If your terminal supports it, the special keyword _\bd_\be_\bf_\ba_\bu_\bl_\bt can be used
+ as a transparent color. The value _\bb_\br_\bi_\bg_\bh_\bt_\bd_\be_\bf_\ba_\bu_\bl_\bt is also valid. If
+ Mutt-ng is linked against the _\bS_\b-_\bL_\ba_\bn_\bg library, you also need to set the
+ $COLORFGBG environment variable to the default colors of your terminal
+ for this to work; for example (for Bourne-like shells):
+
+set COLORFGBG="green;black"
+export COLORFGBG
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: The _\bS_\b-_\bL_\ba_\bn_\bg library requires you to use the _\bl_\bi_\bg_\bh_\bt_\bg_\br_\ba_\by and _\bb_\br_\bo_\bw_\bn
+ keywords instead of _\bw_\bh_\bi_\bt_\be and _\by_\be_\bl_\bl_\bo_\bw when setting this variable.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: The uncolor command can be applied to the index object only. It
+ removes entries from the list. You _\bm_\bu_\bs_\bt specify the same pattern
+ specified in the color command for it to be removed. The pattern ``*''
+ is a special token which means to clear the color index list of all
+ entries.
+
+ Mutt-ng also recognizes the keywords _\bc_\bo_\bl_\bo_\br_\b0, _\bc_\bo_\bl_\bo_\br_\b1 ,..., _\bc_\bo_\bl_\bo_\br_\bN_\b-_\b1 (_\bN
+ being the number of colors supported by your terminal). This is useful
+ when you remap the colors for your display (for example by changing
+ the color associated with _\bc_\bo_\bl_\bo_\br_\b2 for your xterm), since color names
+ may then lose their normal meaning.
+
+ If your terminal does not support color, it is still possible change
+ the video attributes through the use of the ``mono'' command:
+
+ Usage: mono_\bo_\bb_\bj_\be_\bc_\bt_\b _\ba_\bt_\bt_\br_\bi_\bb_\bu_\bt_\be_\b _\b[_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b]

- \e[1m3.13. User defined headers\e[0m
+10. Ignoring (weeding) unwanted message headers
+
+ Usage: ignore_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\b _\b[_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ Usage: unignore_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\b _\b[_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ Messages often have many header fields added by automatic processing
+ systems, or which may not seem useful to display on the screen. This
+ command allows you to specify header fields which you don't normally
+ want to see.
+
+ You do not need to specify the full header field name. For example,
+ ``ignore content-'' will ignore all header fields that begin with the
+ pattern ``content-''. ``ignore *'' will ignore all headers.
+
+ To remove a previously added token from the list, use the ``unignore''
+ command. The ``unignore'' command will make Mutt-ng display headers
+ with the given pattern. For example, if you do ``ignore x-'' it is
+ possible to ``unignore x-mailer''.
+
+ ``unignore *'' will remove all tokens from the ignore list.
+
+ For example:
+# Sven's draconian header weeding
+ignore *
+unignore from date subject to cc
+unignore organization organisation x-mailer: x-newsreader: x-mailing-list:
+unignore posted-to:
- Usage:
- my_hdr \e[4mstring\e[0m
- unmy_hdr \e[4mfield\e[24m [ \e[4mfield\e[24m ... ]
+11. Alternative addresses
- The ``my_hdr'' command allows you to create your own header fields
- which will be added to every message you send.
+ Usage: alternates_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b[_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
- For example, if you would like to add an ``Organization:'' header
- field to all of your outgoing messages, you can put the command
+ Usage: unalternates_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b[_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
- my_hdr Organization: A Really Big Company, Anytown, USA
+ With various functions, mutt will treat messages differently,
+ depending on whether you sent them or whether you received them from
+ someone else. For instance, when replying to a message that you sent
+ to a different party, mutt will automatically suggest to send the
+ response to the original message's recipients--responding to yourself
+ won't make much sense in many cases. (See $\b$r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\by_\b_t\bto\bo.)
- in your .muttrc.
+ Many users receive e-mail under a number of different addresses. To
+ fully use mutt's features here, the program must be able to recognize
+ what e-mail addresses you receive mail under. That's the purpose of
+ the alternates command: It takes a list of regular expressions, each
+ of which can identify an address under which you receive e-mail.
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mspace characters are \e[4mnot\e[24m allowed between the keyword and the
- colon (``:''). The standard for electronic mail (RFC822) says that
- space is illegal there, so Mutt enforces the rule.
+ The unalternates command can be used to write exceptions to alternates
+ patterns. If an address matches something in an alternates command,
+ but you nonetheless do not think it is from you, you can list a more
+ precise pattern under an unalternates command.
- If you would like to add a header field to a single message, you
- should either set the ``edit_headers'' variable, or use the \e[4medit-\e[0m
- \e[4mheaders\e[24m function (default: ``E'') in the send-menu so that you can
- edit the header of your message along with the body.
+ To remove a regular expression from the alternates list, use the
+ unalternates command with exactly the same _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp . Likewise, if the
+ _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp for a alternates command matches an entry on the unalternates
+ list, that unalternates entry will be removed. If the _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp for
+ unalternates is ``*'', _\ba_\bl_\bl_\b _\be_\bn_\bt_\br_\bi_\be_\bs on alternates will be removed.
- To remove user defined header fields, use the ``unmy_hdr'' command.
- You may specify an asterisk (``*'') to remove all header fields, or
- the fields to remove. For example, to remove all ``To'' and ``Cc''
- header fields, you could use:
+12. Format = Flowed
- unmy_hdr to cc
+12.1. Introduction
- \e[1m3.14. Defining the order of headers when viewing messages\e[0m
+ Mutt-ng contains support for so-called format=flowed messages. In the
+ beginning of email, each message had a fixed line width, and it was
+ enough for displaying them on fixed-size terminals. But times changed,
+ and nowadays hardly anybody still uses fixed-size terminals: more
+ people nowaydays use graphical user interfaces, with dynamically
+ resizable windows. This led to the demand of a new email format that
+ makes it possible for the email client to make the email look nice in
+ a resizable window without breaking quoting levels and creating an
+ incompatible email format that can also be displayed nicely on old
+ fixed-size terminals.
- Usage: hdr_order \e[4mheader1\e[24m \e[4mheader2\e[24m \e[4mheader3\e[0m
+ For introductory information on format=flowed messages, see
+ <\b<h\bht\btt\btp\bp:\b:/\b//\b/w\bww\bww\bw.\b.j\bjo\boe\bec\bcl\bla\bar\brk\bk.\b.o\bor\brg\bg/\b/f\bff\bfa\baq\bq.\b.h\bht\btm\bml\bl>\b>.
- With this command, you can specify an order in which mutt will attempt
- to present headers to you when viewing messages.
+12.2. Receiving: Display Setup
- ``unhdr_order *'' will clear all previous headers from the order list,
- thus removing the header order effects set by the system-wide startup
- file.
+ When you receive emails that are marked as format=flowed messages, and
+ is formatted correctly, mutt-ng will try to reformat the message to
+ optimally fit on your terminal. If you want a fixed margin on the
+ right side of your terminal, you can set the following:
- hdr_order From Date: From: To: Cc: Subject:
+set wrapmargin = 10
- \e[1m3.15. Specify default save filename\e[0m
+ The code above makes the line break 10 columns before the right side
+ of the terminal.
- Usage: save-hook [!]\e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mfilename\e[0m
+ If your terminal is so wide that the lines are embarrassingly long,
+ you can also set a maximum line length:
- This command is used to override the default filename used when saving
- messages. \e[4mfilename\e[24m will be used as the default filename if the
- message is \e[4mFrom:\e[24m an address matching \e[4mregexp\e[24m or if you are the author
- and the message is addressed \e[4mto:\e[24m something matching \e[4mregexp\e[24m.
+set max_line_length = 120
- See ``Message Matching in Hooks'' for information on the exact format
- of \e[4mpattern\e[24m.
+ The example above will give you lines not longer than 120 characters.
- Examples:
+ When you view at format=flowed messages, you will often see the
+ quoting hierarchy like in the following example:
- save-hook me@(turing\\.)?cs\\.hmc\\.edu$ +elkins
- save-hook aol\\.com$ +spam
+>Bill, can you please send last month's progress report to Mr.
+>Morgan? We also urgently need the cost estimation for the new
+>production server that we want to set up before our customer's
+>project will go live.
+
+ This obviously doesn't look very nice, and it makes it very hard to
+ differentiate between text and quoting character. The solution is to
+ configure mutt-ng to "stuff" the quoting:
+
+set stuff_quoted
- Also see the ``fcc-save-hook'' command.
+ This will lead to a nicer result that is easier to read:
- \e[1m3.16. Specify default Fcc: mailbox when composing\e[0m
+> Bill, can you please send last month's progress report to Mr.
+> Morgan? We also urgently need the cost estimation for the new
+> production server that we want to set up before our customer's
+> project will go live.
+
+12.3. Sending
- Usage: fcc-hook [!]\e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mmailbox\e[0m
+ If you want mutt-ng to send emails with format=flowed set, you need to
+ explicitly set it:
- This command is used to save outgoing mail in a mailbox other than
- ``$record''. Mutt searches the initial list of message recipients for
- the first matching \e[4mregexp\e[24m and uses \e[4mmailbox\e[24m as the default Fcc:
- mailbox. If no match is found the message will be saved to
- ``$record'' mailbox.
+set text_flowed
- See ``Message Matching in Hooks'' for information on the exact format
- of \e[4mpattern\e[24m.
+ Additionally, you have to use an editor which supports writing
+ format=flowed-conforming emails. For vim(1), this is done by adding w
+ to the formatoptions (see :h formatoptions and :h fo-table) when
+ writing emails.
- Example: fcc-hook aol.com$ +spammers
+ Also note that _\bf_\bo_\br_\bm_\ba_\bt_\b=_\bf_\bl_\bo_\bw_\be_\bd knows about ``space-stuffing'', that is,
+ when sending messages, some kinds of lines have to be indented with a
+ single space on the sending side. On the receiving side, the first
+ space (if any) is removed. As a consequence and in addition to the
+ above simple setting, please keep this in mind when making manual
+ formattings within the editor. Also note that mutt-ng currently
+ violates the standard (R\bRf\bfC\bC \b 3\b36\b67\b76\b6) as it does not space-stuff lines
+ starting with:
- The above will save a copy of all messages going to the aol.com domain
- to the `+spammers' mailbox by default. Also see the ``fcc-save-hook''
- command.
+ * > This is _\bn_\bo_\bt the quote character but a right angle used for other
+ reasons
- \e[1m3.17. Specify default save filename and default Fcc: mailbox at once\e[0m
+ Please make sure that you manually prepend a space to each of them.
- Usage: fcc-save-hook [!]\e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mmailbox\e[0m
+12.4. Additional Notes
- This command is a shortcut, equivalent to doing both a ``fcc-hook''
- and a ``save-hook'' with its arguments.
+ For completeness, the $\b$d\bde\bel\ble\bet\bte\be_\b_s\bsp\bpa\bac\bce\be variable provides the mechanism to
+ generate a DelSp=yes parameter on _\bo_\bu_\bt_\bg_\bo_\bi_\bn_\bg messages. According to the
+ standard, clients receiving a format=flowed messages should delete the
+ last space of a flowed line but still interpret the line as flowed.
+ Because flowed lines usually contain only one space at the end, this
+ parameter would make the receiving client concatenate the last word of
+ the previous with the first of the current line _\bw_\bi_\bt_\bh_\bo_\bu_\bt a space. This
+ makes ordinary text unreadable and is intended for languages rarely
+ using spaces. So please use this setting only if you're sure what
+ you're doing.
- \e[1m3.18. Change settings based upon message recipients\e[0m
+13. Mailing lists
- Usage: reply-hook [!]\e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mcommand\e[0m
- Usage: send-hook [!]\e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mcommand\e[0m
- Usage: send2-hook [!]\e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mcommand\e[0m
+ Usage: lists_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b[_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
- These commands can be used to execute arbitrary configuration commands
- based upon recipients of the message. \e[4mpattern\e[24m is a regular expression
- matching the desired address. \e[4mcommand\e[24m is executed when \e[4mregexp\e[24m matches
- recipients of the message.
+ Usage: unlists_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b[_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
- reply-hook is matched against the message you are \e[4mreplying\e[24m \e[1mto\e[22m, instead
- of the message you are \e[4msending\e[24m. send-hook is matched against all
- messages, both \e[4mnew\e[24m and \e[4mreplies\e[24m. \e[1mNote: \e[22mreply-hooks are matched \e[1mbefore\e[0m
- the send-hook, \e[1mregardless \e[22mof the order specified in the users's
- configuration file.
+ Usage: subscribe_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b[_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
- send2-hook is matched every time a message is changed, either by
- editing it, or by using the compose menu to change its recipients or
- subject. send2-hook is executed after send-hook, and can, e.g., be
- used to set parameters such as the ``$sendmail'' variable depending on
- the message's sender address.
+ Usage: unsubscribe_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b[_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
- For each type of send-hook or reply-hook, when multiple matches occur,
- commands are executed in the order they are specified in the muttrc
- (for that type of hook).
+ Mutt-ng has a few nice features for u\bus\bsi\bin\bng\bg-\b-l\bli\bis\bst\bts\bs. In order to take
+ advantage of them, you must specify which addresses belong to mailing
+ lists, and which mailing lists you are subscribed to. Once you have
+ done this, the l\bli\bis\bst\bt-\b-r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\by function will work for all known lists.
+ Additionally, when you send a message to a subscribed list, mutt will
+ add a Mail-Followup-To header to tell other users' mail user agents
+ not to send copies of replies to your personal address. Note that the
+ Mail-Followup-To header is a non-standard extension which is not
+ supported by all mail user agents. Adding it is not bullet-proof
+ against receiving personal CCs of list messages. Also note that the
+ generation of the Mail-Followup-To header is controlled by the
+ $\b$f\bfo\bol\bll\blo\bow\bwu\bup\bp_\b_t\bto\bo configuration variable.
- See ``Message Matching in Hooks'' for information on the exact format
- of \e[4mpattern\e[24m.
+ More precisely, Mutt-ng maintains lists of patterns for the addresses
+ of known and subscribed mailing lists. Every subscribed mailing list
+ is known. To mark a mailing list as known, use the ``lists'' command.
+ To mark it as subscribed, use ``subscribe''.
- Example: send-hook mutt "set mime_forward signature=''"
+ You can use regular expressions with both commands. To mark all
+ messages sent to a specific bug report's address on mutt's bug
+ tracking system as list mail, for instance, you could say ``subscribe
+ [0-9]*@bugs.guug.de''. Often, it's sufficient to just give a portion
+ of the list's e-mail address.
- Another typical use for this command is to change the values of the
- ``$attribution'', ``$signature'' and ``$locale'' variables in order to
- change the language of the attributions and signatures based upon the
- recipients.
+ Specify as much of the address as you need to to remove ambiguity. For
+ example, if you've subscribed to the Mutt-ng mailing list, you will
+ receive mail addressed to _\bm_\bu_\bt_\bt_\b-_\bu_\bs_\be_\br_\bs_\b@_\bm_\bu_\bt_\bt_\b._\bo_\br_\bg. So, to tell Mutt-ng
+ that this is a mailing list, you could add ``lists mutt-users'' to
+ your initialization file. To tell mutt that you are subscribed to it,
+ add ``subscribe mutt-users'' to your initialization file instead. If
+ you also happen to get mail from someone whose address is
+ _\bm_\bu_\bt_\bt_\b-_\bu_\bs_\be_\br_\bs_\b@_\be_\bx_\ba_\bm_\bp_\bl_\be_\b._\bc_\bo_\bm, you could use ``lists mutt-users@mutt\\.org''
+ or ``subscribe mutt-users@mutt\\.org'' to match only mail from the
+ actual list.
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mthe send-hook's are only executed ONCE after getting the initial
- list of recipients. Adding a recipient after replying or editing the
- message will NOT cause any send-hook to be executed. Also note that
- my_hdr commands which modify recipient headers, or the message's
- subject, don't have any effect on the current message when executed
- from a send-hook.
+ The ``unlists'' command is used to remove a token from the list of
+ known and subscribed mailing-lists. Use ``unlists *'' to remove all
+ tokens.
- \e[1m3.19. Change settings before formatting a message\e[0m
+ To remove a mailing list from the list of subscribed mailing lists,
+ but keep it on the list of known mailing lists, use ``unsubscribe''.
- Usage: message-hook [!]\e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mcommand\e[0m
+14. Using Multiple spool mailboxes
- This command can be used to execute arbitrary configuration commands
- before viewing or formatting a message based upon information about
- the message. \e[4mcommand\e[24m is executed if the \e[4mpattern\e[24m matches the message
- to be displayed. When multiple matches occur, commands are executed in
- the order they are specified in the muttrc.
+ Usage: m\bmb\bbo\box\bx-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk [!]_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\bm_\ba_\bi_\bl_\bb_\bo_\bx
- See ``Message Matching in Hooks'' for information on the exact format
- of \e[4mpattern\e[24m.
+ This command is used to move read messages from a specified mailbox to
+ adifferent mailbox automatically when you quit or change folders.
+ _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn is a regular expression specifying the mailbox to treat as a
+ ``spool'' mailbox and _\bm_\ba_\bi_\bl_\bb_\bo_\bx specifies where mail should be saved
+ when read.
- Example:
+ Unlike some of the other _\bh_\bo_\bo_\bk commands, only the _\bf_\bi_\br_\bs_\bt matching
+ pattern is used (it is not possible to save read mail in more than a
+ single mailbox).

+15. Defining mailboxes which receive mail
- \e[1m3.20. Choosing the cryptographic key of the recipient\e[0m
+ Usage: mailboxes_\b[_\b!_\b]_\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\b _\b[_\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b _\b]
- Usage: crypt-hook \e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mkeyid\e[0m
+ Usage: unmailboxes_\b[_\b!_\b]_\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\b _\b[_\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b _\b]
- When encrypting messages with PGP or OpenSSL, you may want to
- associate a certain key with a given e-mail address automatically,
- either because the recipient's public key can't be deduced from the
- destination address, or because, for some reasons, you need to
- override the key Mutt would normally use. The crypt-hook command
- provides a method by which you can specify the ID of the public key to
- be used when encrypting messages to a certain recipient.
-
- The meaning of "key id" is to be taken broadly in this context: You
- can either put a numerical key ID here, an e-mail address, or even
- just a real name.
-
- \e[1m3.21. Adding key sequences to the keyboard buffer\e[0m
-
- Usage: push \e[4mstring\e[0m
-
- This command adds the named string to the keyboard buffer. The string
- may contain control characters, key names and function names like the
- sequence string in the ``macro'' command. You may use it to
- automatically run a sequence of commands at startup, or when entering
- certain folders.
-
- \e[1m3.22. Executing functions\e[0m
-
- Usage: exec \e[4mfunction\e[24m [ \e[4mfunction\e[24m ... ]
-
- This command can be used to execute any function. Functions are listed
- in the ``function reference''. ``exec function'' is equivalent to
- ``push <function>''.
- \e[1m3.23. Message Scoring\e[0m
-
- Usage: score \e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mvalue\e[0m
- Usage: unscore \e[4mpattern\e[24m [ \e[4mpattern\e[24m ... ]
-
- The score commands adds \e[4mvalue\e[24m to a message's score if \e[4mpattern\e[24m matches
- it. \e[4mpattern\e[24m is a string in the format described in the ``patterns''
- section (note: For efficiency reasons, patterns which scan information
- not available in the index, such as ~b, ~B or ~h, may not be used).
- \e[4mvalue\e[24m is a positive or negative integer. A message's final score is
- the sum total of all matching score entries. However, you may
- optionally prefix \e[4mvalue\e[24m with an equal sign (=) to cause evaluation to
- stop at a particular entry if there is a match. Negative final scores
- are rounded up to 0.
-
- The unscore command removes score entries from the list. You \e[1mmust\e[0m
- specify the same pattern specified in the score command for it to be
- removed. The pattern ``*'' is a special token which means to clear
- the list of all score entries.
-
- \e[1m3.24. Spam detection\e[0m
-
- Usage: spam \e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mformat\e[0m
- Usage: nospam \e[4mpattern\e[0m
-
- Mutt has generalized support for external spam-scoring filters. By
- defining your spam patterns with the spam and nospam commands, you can
- \e[4mlimit\e[24m, \e[4msearch\e[24m, and \e[4msort\e[24m your mail based on its spam attributes, as
- determined by the external filter. You also can display the spam
- attributes in your index display using the %H selector in the
- ``$index_format'' variable. (Tip: try %?H?[%H] ? to display spam tags
- only when they are defined for a given message.)
-
- Your first step is to define your external filter's spam patterns
- using the spam command. \e[4mpattern\e[24m should be a regular expression that
- matches a header in a mail message. If any message in the mailbox
- matches this regular expression, it will receive a ``spam tag'' or
- ``spam attribute'' (unless it also matches a nospam pattern -- see
- below.) The appearance of this attribute is entirely up to you, and is
- governed by the \e[4mformat\e[24m parameter. \e[4mformat\e[24m can be any static text, but
- it also can include back-references from the \e[4mpattern\e[24m expression. (A
- regular expression ``back-reference'' refers to a sub-expression
- contained within parentheses.) %1 is replaced with the first back-
- reference in the regex, %2 with the second, etc.
-
- If you're using multiple spam filters, a message can have more than
- one spam-related header. You can define spam patterns for each filter
- you use. If a message matches two or more of these patterns, and the
- $spam_separator variable is set to a string, then the message's spam
- tag will consist of all the \e[4mformat\e[24m strings joined together, with the
- value of $spam_separator separating them.
-
- For example, suppose I use DCC, SpamAssassin, and PureMessage. I might
- define these spam settings:
-
- spam "X-DCC-.*-Metrics:.*(....)=many" "90+/DCC-%1"
- spam "X-Spam-Status: Yes" "90+/SA"
- spam "X-PerlMX-Spam: .*Probability=([0-9]+)%" "%1/PM"
- set spam_separator=", "
-
- If I then received a message that DCC registered with ``many'' hits
- under the ``Fuz2'' checksum, and that PureMessage registered with a
- 97% probability of being spam, that message's spam tag would read
- 90+/DCC-Fuz2, 97/PM. (The four characters before ``=many'' in a DCC
- report indicate the checksum used -- in this case, ``Fuz2''.)
-
- If the $spam_separator variable is unset, then each spam pattern match
- supercedes the previous one. Instead of getting joined \e[4mformat\e[24m strings,
- you'll get only the last one to match.
-
- The spam tag is what will be displayed in the index when you use %H in
- the $index_format variable. It's also the string that the ~H pattern-
- matching expression matches against for \e[4msearch\e[24m and \e[4mlimit\e[24m functions.
- And it's what sorting by spam attribute will use as a sort key.
-
- That's a pretty complicated example, and most people's actual
- environments will have only one spam filter. The simpler your
- configuration, the more effective mutt can be, especially when it
- comes to sorting.
-
- Generally, when you sort by spam tag, mutt will sort \e[4mlexically\e[24m -- that
- is, by ordering strings alphnumerically. However, if a spam tag begins
- with a number, mutt will sort numerically first, and lexically only
- when two numbers are equal in value. (This is like UNIX's sort -n.) A
- message with no spam attributes at all -- that is, one that didn't
- match \e[4many\e[24m of your spam patterns -- is sorted at lowest priority.
- Numbers are sorted next, beginning with 0 and ranging upward. Finally,
- non-numeric strings are sorted, with ``a'' taking lower priority than
- ``z''. Clearly, in general, sorting by spam tags is most effective
- when you can coerce your filter to give you a raw number. But in case
- you can't, mutt can still do something useful.
-
- The nospam command can be used to write exceptions to spam patterns.
- If a header pattern matches something in a spam command, but you
- nonetheless do not want it to receive a spam tag, you can list a more
- precise pattern under a nospam command.
-
- If the \e[4mpattern\e[24m given to nospam is exactly the same as the \e[4mpattern\e[24m on
- an existing spam list entry, the effect will be to remove the entry
- from the spam list, instead of adding an exception. Likewise, if the
- \e[4mpattern\e[24m for a spam command matches an entry on the nospam list, that
- nospam entry will be removed. If the \e[4mpattern\e[24m for nospam is ``*'', \e[4mall\e[0m
- \e[4mentries\e[24m \e[4mon\e[24m \e[4mboth\e[24m \e[4mlists\e[24m will be removed. This might be the default
- action if you use spam and nospam in conjunction with a folder-hook.
-
- You can have as many spam or nospam commands as you like. You can
- even do your own primitive spam detection within mutt -- for example,
- if you consider all mail from MAILER-DAEMON to be spam, you can use a
- spam command like this:
-
- spam "^From: .*MAILER-DAEMON" "999"
-
- \e[1m3.25. Setting variables\e[0m
-
- Usage: set [no|inv]\e[4mvariable\e[24m[=\e[4mvalue\e[24m] [ \e[4mvariable\e[24m ... ]
- Usage: toggle \e[4mvariable\e[24m [\e[4mvariable\e[24m ... ]
- Usage: unset \e[4mvariable\e[24m [\e[4mvariable\e[24m ... ]
- Usage: reset \e[4mvariable\e[24m [\e[4mvariable\e[24m ... ]
-
- This command is used to set (and unset) ``configuration variables''.
- There are four basic types of variables: boolean, number, string and
- quadoption. \e[4mboolean\e[24m variables can be \e[4mset\e[24m (true) or \e[4munset\e[24m (false).
- \e[4mnumber\e[24m variables can be assigned a positive integer value.
-
- \e[4mstring\e[24m variables consist of any number of printable characters.
- \e[4mstrings\e[24m must be enclosed in quotes if they contain spaces or tabs.
- You may also use the ``C'' escape sequences \e[1m\n \e[22mand \e[1m\t \e[22mfor newline and
- tab, respectively.
-
- \e[4mquadoption\e[24m variables are used to control whether or not to be prompted
- for certain actions, or to specify a default action. A value of \e[4myes\e[0m
- will cause the action to be carried out automatically as if you had
- answered yes to the question. Similarly, a value of \e[4mno\e[24m will cause the
- the action to be carried out as if you had answered ``no.'' A value
- of \e[4mask-yes\e[24m will cause a prompt with a default answer of ``yes'' and
- \e[4mask-no\e[24m will provide a default answer of ``no.''
-
- Prefixing a variable with ``no'' will unset it. Example: set
- noaskbcc.
-
- For \e[4mboolean\e[24m variables, you may optionally prefix the variable name
- with inv to toggle the value (on or off). This is useful when writing
- macros. Example: set invsmart_wrap.
-
- The toggle command automatically prepends the inv prefix to all
- specified variables.
-
- The unset command automatically prepends the no prefix to all
- specified variables.
-
- Using the enter-command function in the \e[4mindex\e[24m menu, you can query the
- value of a variable by prefixing the name of the variable with a
- question mark:
-
- set ?allow_8bit
-
- The question mark is actually only required for boolean and quadoption
- variables.
-
- The reset command resets all given variables to the compile time
- defaults (hopefully mentioned in this manual). If you use the command
- set and prefix the variable with ``&'' this has the same behavior as
- the reset command.
-
- With the reset command there exists the special variable ``all'',
- which allows you to reset all variables to their system defaults.
-
- \e[1m3.26. Reading initialization commands from another file\e[0m
-
- Usage: source \e[4mfilename\e[0m
-
- This command allows the inclusion of initialization commands from
- other files. For example, I place all of my aliases in
- ~/.mail_aliases so that I can make my ~/.muttrc readable and keep my
- aliases private.
-
- If the filename begins with a tilde (``~''), it will be expanded to
- the path of your home directory.
-
- If the filename ends with a vertical bar (|), then \e[4mfilename\e[24m is
- considered to be an executable program from which to read input (eg.
- source ~/bin/myscript|).
-
- \e[1m3.27. Removing hooks\e[0m
-
- Usage: unhook [ * | \e[4mhook-type\e[24m ]
-
- This command permits you to flush hooks you have previously defined.
- You can either remove all hooks by giving the ``*'' character as an
- argument, or you can remove all hooks of a specific type by saying
- something like unhook send-hook.
+ This command specifies folders which can receive mail and which will
+ be checked for new messages. By default, the main menu status bar
+ displays how many of these folders have new messages.
- \e[1m4. Advanced Usage\e[0m
-
- \e[1m4.1. Regular Expressions\e[0m
+ When changing folders, pressing _\bs_\bp_\ba_\bc_\be will cycle through folders with
+ new mail.
- All string patterns in Mutt including those in more complex
- ``patterns'' must be specified using regular expressions (regexp) in
- the ``POSIX extended'' syntax (which is more or less the syntax used
- by egrep and GNU awk). For your convenience, we have included below a
- brief description of this syntax.
+ Pressing TAB in the directory browser will bring up a menu showing the
+ files specified by the mailboxes command, and indicate which contain
+ new messages. Mutt-ng will automatically enter this mode when invoked
+ from the command line with the -y option.
- The search is case sensitive if the pattern contains at least one
- upper case letter, and case insensitive otherwise. Note that ``\''
- must be quoted if used for a regular expression in an initialization
- command: ``\\''.
-
- A regular expression is a pattern that describes a set of strings.
- Regular expressions are constructed analogously to arithmetic
- expressions, by using various operators to combine smaller
- expressions.
-
- Note that the regular expression can be enclosed/delimited by either "
- or ' which is useful if the regular expression includes a white-space
- character. See ``Syntax of Initialization Files'' for more
- information on " and ' delimiter processing. To match a literal " or
- ' you must preface it with \ (backslash).
+ The ``unmailboxes'' command is used to remove a token from the list of
+ folders which receive mail. Use ``unmailboxes *'' to remove all
+ tokens.
- The fundamental building blocks are the regular expressions that match
- a single character. Most characters, including all letters and
- digits, are regular expressions that match themselves. Any
- metacharacter with special meaning may be quoted by preceding it with
- a backslash.
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: new mail is detected by comparing the last modification time to
+ the last access time. Utilities like biff or frm or any other program
+ which accesses the mailbox might cause Mutt-ng to never detect new
+ mail for that mailbox if they do not properly reset the access time.
+ Backup tools are another common reason for updated access times.
- The period ``.'' matches any single character. The caret ``^'' and
- the dollar sign ``$'' are metacharacters that respectively match the
- empty string at the beginning and end of a line.
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: the filenames in the mailboxes command are resolved when the
+ command is executed, so if these names contain s\bsh\bho\bor\brt\btc\bcu\but\bts\bs (such as
+ ``='' and ``!''), any variable definition that affect these characters
+ (like $\b$f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br and $\b$s\bsp\bpo\boo\bol\blf\bfi\bil\ble\be) should be executed before the mailboxes
+ command.
- A list of characters enclosed by ``['' and ``]'' matches any single
- character in that list; if the first character of the list is a caret
- ``^'' then it matches any character \e[1mnot \e[22min the list. For example, the
- regular expression \e[1m[0123456789] \e[22mmatches any single digit. A range of
- ASCII characters may be specified by giving the first and last
- characters, separated by a hyphen ``-''. Most metacharacters lose
- their special meaning inside lists. To include a literal ``]'' place
- it first in the list. Similarly, to include a literal ``^'' place it
- anywhere but first. Finally, to include a literal hyphen ``-'' place
- it last.
+16. User defined headers
- Certain named classes of characters are predefined. Character classes
- consist of ``[:'', a keyword denoting the class, and ``:]''. The
- following classes are defined by the POSIX standard:
+ Usage: my_hdr_\bs_\bt_\br_\bi_\bn_\bg
- \e[1m[:alnum:]\e[0m
- Alphanumeric characters.
+ Usage: unmy_hdr_\bf_\bi_\be_\bl_\bd_\b _\b[_\bf_\bi_\be_\bl_\bd_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
- \e[1m[:alpha:]\e[0m
- Alphabetic characters.
+ The ``my_hdr'' command allows you to create your own header fields
+ which will be added to every message you send.
- \e[1m[:blank:]\e[0m
- Space or tab characters.
+ For example, if you would like to add an ``Organization:'' header
+ field to all of your outgoing messages, you can put the command
- \e[1m[:cntrl:]\e[0m
- Control characters.
+my_hdr Organization: A Really Big Company, Anytown, USA
- \e[1m[:digit:]\e[0m
- Numeric characters.
+ in your .muttrc.
- \e[1m[:graph:]\e[0m
- Characters that are both printable and visible. (A space is
- printable, but not visible, while an ``a'' is both.)
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: space characters are _\bn_\bo_\bt allowed between the keyword and the
+ colon (``:''). The standard for electronic mail (R\bRf\bfC\bC \b 8\b82\b22\b2) says that
+ space is illegal there, so Mutt-ng enforces the rule.
- \e[1m[:lower:]\e[0m
- Lower-case alphabetic characters.
+ If you would like to add a header field to a single message, you
+ should either set the $\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bt_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs variable, or use the _\be_\bd_\bi_\bt_\b-_\bh_\be_\ba_\bd_\be_\br_\bs
+ function (default: ``E'') in the send-menu so that you can edit the
+ header of your message along with the body.
- \e[1m[:print:]\e[0m
- Printable characters (characters that are not control
- characters.)
+ To remove user defined header fields, use the ``unmy_hdr'' command.
+ You may specify an asterisk (``*'') to remove all header fields, or
+ the fields to remove. For example, to remove all ``To'' and ``Cc''
+ header fields, you could use:
- \e[1m[:punct:]\e[0m
- Punctuation characters (characters that are not letter, digits,
- control characters, or space characters).
+unmy_hdr to cc
- \e[1m[:space:]\e[0m
- Space characters (such as space, tab and formfeed, to name a
- few).
+17. Defining the order of headers when viewing messages
- \e[1m[:upper:]\e[0m
- Upper-case alphabetic characters.
+ Usage: hdr_order_\bh_\be_\ba_\bd_\be_\br_\b _\bh_\be_\ba_\bd_\be_\br_\b _\b[_\bh_\be_\ba_\bd_\be_\br_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
- \e[1m[:xdigit:]\e[0m
- Characters that are hexadecimal digits.
+ Usage: unhdr_order_\b[_\b _\b*_\b _\b|_\b _\bh_\be_\ba_\bd_\be_\br_\b _\bh_\be_\ba_\bd_\be_\br_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
- A character class is only valid in a regular expression inside the
- brackets of a character list. Note that the brackets in these class
- names are part of the symbolic names, and must be included in addition
- to the brackets delimiting the bracket list. For example, \e[1m[[:digit:]]\e[0m
- is equivalent to \e[1m[0-9]\e[22m.
-
- Two additional special sequences can appear in character lists. These
- apply to non-ASCII character sets, which can have single symbols
- (called collating elements) that are represented with more than one
- character, as well as several characters that are equivalent for
- collating or sorting purposes:
-
- \e[1mCollating Symbols\e[0m
- A collating symbol is a multi-character collating element
- enclosed in ``[.'' and ``.]''. For example, if ``ch'' is a
- collating element, then \e[1m[[.ch.]] \e[22mis a regexp that matches this
- collating element, while \e[1m[ch] \e[22mis a regexp that matches either
- ``c'' or ``h''.
-
- \e[1mEquivalence Classes\e[0m
- An equivalence class is a locale-specific name for a list of
- characters that are equivalent. The name is enclosed in ``[=''
- and ``=]''. For example, the name ``e'' might be used to
- represent all of ``è'' ``é'' and ``e''. In this case, \e[1m[[=e=]]\e[0m
- is a regexp that matches any of ``è'', ``é'' and ``e''.
- A regular expression matching a single character may be followed by
- one of several repetition operators:
-
- \e[1m? \e[22mThe preceding item is optional and matched at most once.
-
- \e[1m* \e[22mThe preceding item will be matched zero or more times.
-
- \e[1m+ \e[22mThe preceding item will be matched one or more times.
-
- \e[1m{n}\e[0m
- The preceding item is matched exactly \e[4mn\e[24m times.
-
- \e[1m{n,}\e[0m
- The preceding item is matched \e[4mn\e[24m or more times.
-
- \e[1m{,m}\e[0m
- The preceding item is matched at most \e[4mm\e[24m times.
-
- \e[1m{n,m}\e[0m
- The preceding item is matched at least \e[4mn\e[24m times, but no more than
- \e[4mm\e[24m times.
-
- Two regular expressions may be concatenated; the resulting regular
- expression matches any string formed by concatenating two substrings
- that respectively match the concatenated subexpressions.
-
- Two regular expressions may be joined by the infix operator ``|''; the
- resulting regular expression matches any string matching either
- subexpression.
-
- Repetition takes precedence over concatenation, which in turn takes
- precedence over alternation. A whole subexpression may be enclosed in
- parentheses to override these precedence rules.
-
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mIf you compile Mutt with the GNU \e[4mrx\e[24m package, the following
- operators may also be used in regular expressions:
-
- \e[1m\\y\e[0m
- Matches the empty string at either the beginning or the end of a
- word.
-
- \e[1m\\B\e[0m
- Matches the empty string within a word.
-
- \e[1m\\<\e[0m
- Matches the empty string at the beginning of a word.
-
- \e[1m\\>\e[0m
- Matches the empty string at the end of a word.
-
- \e[1m\\w\e[0m
- Matches any word-constituent character (letter, digit, or
- underscore).
-
- \e[1m\\W\e[0m
- Matches any character that is not word-constituent.
-
- \e[1m\\`\e[0m
- Matches the empty string at the beginning of a buffer (string).
-
- \e[1m\\'\e[0m
- Matches the empty string at the end of a buffer.
-
- Please note however that these operators are not defined by POSIX, so
- they may or may not be available in stock libraries on various
- systems.
-
- \e[1m4.2. Patterns\e[0m
-
- Many of Mutt's commands allow you to specify a pattern to match
- (limit, tag-pattern, delete-pattern, etc.). There are several ways to
- select messages:
-
- ~A all messages
- ~b EXPR messages which contain EXPR in the message body
- ~B EXPR messages which contain EXPR in the whole message
- ~c USER messages carbon-copied to USER
- ~C EXPR message is either to: or cc: EXPR
- ~D deleted messages
- ~d [MIN]-[MAX] messages with ``date-sent'' in a Date range
- ~E expired messages
- ~e EXPR message which contains EXPR in the ``Sender'' field
- ~F flagged messages
- ~f USER messages originating from USER
- ~g cryptographically signed messages
- ~G cryptographically encrypted messages
- ~H EXPR messages with a spam attribute matching EXPR
- ~h EXPR messages which contain EXPR in the message header
- ~k message contains PGP key material
- ~i ID message which match ID in the ``Message-ID'' field
- ~L EXPR message is either originated or received by EXPR
- ~l message is addressed to a known mailing list
- ~m [MIN]-[MAX] message in the range MIN to MAX *)
- ~n [MIN]-[MAX] messages with a score in the range MIN to MAX *)
- ~N new messages
- ~O old messages
- ~p message is addressed to you (consults alternates)
- ~P message is from you (consults alternates)
- ~Q messages which have been replied to
- ~R read messages
- ~r [MIN]-[MAX] messages with ``date-received'' in a Date range
- ~S superseded messages
- ~s SUBJECT messages having SUBJECT in the ``Subject'' field.
- ~T tagged messages
- ~t USER messages addressed to USER
- ~U unread messages
- ~v message is part of a collapsed thread.
- ~V cryptographically verified messages
- ~x EXPR messages which contain EXPR in the `References' field
- ~y EXPR messages which contain EXPR in the `X-Label' field
- ~z [MIN]-[MAX] messages with a size in the range MIN to MAX *)
- ~= duplicated messages (see $duplicate_threads)
- ~$ unreferenced messages (requires threaded view)
+ With this command, you can specify an order in which mutt will attempt
+ to present headers to you when viewing messages.
- Where EXPR, USER, ID, and SUBJECT are ``regular expressions''.
- Special attention has to be made when using regular expressions inside
- of patterns. Specifically, Mutt's parser for these patterns will
- strip one level of backslash (\), which is normally used for quoting.
- If it is your intention to use a backslash in the regular expression,
- you will need to use two backslashes instead (\\).
+ ``unhdr_order *'' will clear all previous headers from the order list,
+ thus removing the header order effects set by the system-wide startup
+ file.
- *) The forms <[MAX], >[MIN], [MIN]- and -[MAX] are allowed, too.
+hdr_order From Date: From: To: Cc: Subject:
- \e[1m4.2.1. Pattern Modifier\e[0m
+18. Specify default save filename
- Note that patterns matching 'lists' of addresses (notably c,C,p,P and
- t) match if there is at least one match in the whole list. If you want
- to make sure that all elements of that list match, you need to prefix
- your pattern with ^. This example matches all mails which only has
- recipients from Germany.
+ Usage: s\bsa\bav\bve\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk [!]_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be
- ^~C \.de$
+ This command is used to override the default filename used when saving
+ messages. _\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be will be used as the default filename if the message
+ is _\bF_\br_\bo_\bm_\b: an address matching _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp or if you are the author and the
+ message is addressed _\bt_\bo_\b: something matching _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp .
- \e[1m4.2.2. Complex Patterns\e[0m
+ See p\bpa\bat\btt\bte\ber\brn\bn-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk for information on the exact format of _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn.
- Logical AND is performed by specifying more than one criterion. For
- example:
+ Examples:
- ~t mutt ~f elkins
+save-hook me@(turing\\.)?cs\\.hmc\\.edu$ +elkins
+save-hook aol\\.com$ +spam
- would select messages which contain the word ``mutt'' in the list of
- recipients \e[1mand \e[22mthat have the word ``elkins'' in the ``From'' header
- field.
+ Also see the f\bfc\bcc\bc-\b-s\bsa\bav\bve\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk command.
- Mutt also recognizes the following operators to create more complex
- search patterns:
+19. Specify default Fcc: mailbox when composing
- · ! -- logical NOT operator
+ Usage: f\bfc\bcc\bc-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk [!]_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\bm_\ba_\bi_\bl_\bb_\bo_\bx
- · | -- logical OR operator
-
- · () -- logical grouping operator
-
- Here is an example illustrating a complex search pattern. This
- pattern will select all messages which do not contain ``mutt'' in the
- ``To'' or ``Cc'' field and which are from ``elkins''.
-
- !(~t mutt|~c mutt) ~f elkins
-
- Here is an example using white space in the regular expression (note
- the ' and " delimiters). For this to match, the mail's subject must
- match the ``^Junk +From +Me$'' and it must be from either ``Jim
- +Somebody'' or ``Ed +SomeoneElse'':
-
- '~s "^Junk +From +Me$" ~f ("Jim +Somebody"|"Ed +SomeoneElse")'
-
- Note that if a regular expression contains parenthesis, or a veritical
- bar ("|"), you \e[1mmust \e[22menclose the expression in double or single quotes
- since those characters are also used to separate different parts of
- Mutt's pattern language. For example,
-
- ~f "me@(mutt\.org|cs\.hmc\.edu)"
-
- Without the quotes, the parenthesis wouldn't end. This would be
- seperated to two OR'd patterns: \e[4m~f\e[24m \e[4mme@(mutt\.org\e[24m and \e[4mcs\.hmc\.edu)\e[24m.
- They are never what you want.
-
- \e[1m4.2.3. Searching by Date\e[0m
+ This command is used to save outgoing mail in a mailbox other than
+ $\b$r\bre\bec\bco\bor\brd\bd. Mutt-ng searches the initial list of message recipients for
+ the first matching _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp and uses _\bm_\ba_\bi_\bl_\bb_\bo_\bx as the default Fcc:
+ mailbox. If no match is found the message will be saved to $\b$r\bre\bec\bco\bor\brd\bd
+ mailbox.
- Mutt supports two types of dates, \e[4mabsolute\e[24m and \e[4mrelative\e[24m.
+ See p\bpa\bat\btt\bte\ber\brn\bn-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk for information on the exact format of _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn.
- \e[1mAbsolute\e[22m. Dates \e[1mmust \e[22mbe in DD/MM/YY format (month and year are
- optional, defaulting to the current month and year). An example of a
- valid range of dates is:
+ Example:
- Limit to messages matching: ~d 20/1/95-31/10
+fcc-hook [@.]aol\\.com$ +spammers
- If you omit the minimum (first) date, and just specify ``-DD/MM/YY'',
- all messages \e[4mbefore\e[24m the given date will be selected. If you omit the
- maximum (second) date, and specify ``DD/MM/YY-'', all messages \e[4mafter\e[0m
- the given date will be selected. If you specify a single date with no
- dash (``-''), only messages sent on the given date will be selected.
+ The above will save a copy of all messages going to the aol.com domain

- As a special case, you can replace the sign by a ``*'' character,
- which is equivalent to giving identical plus and minus error margins.

+ my_hdr commands which modify recipient headers, or the message's
+ subject, don't have any effect on the current message when executed
+ from a s\bse\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk.
- Sometimes it is desirable to perform an operation on a group of
- messages all at once rather than one at a time. An example might be
- to save messages to a mailing list to a separate folder, or to delete
- all messages with a given subject. 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 messages by hand using the
- ``tag-message'' function, which is bound to ``t'' by default. See
- ``patterns'' for Mutt's pattern matching syntax.
+22. Change settings before formatting a message
- Once you have tagged the desired messages, you can use the ``tag-
- prefix'' operator, which is the ``;'' (semicolon) key by default.
- When the ``tag-prefix'' operator is used, the \e[1mnext \e[22moperation will be
- applied to all tagged messages if that operation can be used in that
- manner. If the ``$auto_tag'' variable is set, the next operation
- applies to the tagged messages automatically, without requiring the
- ``tag-prefix''.
+ Usage: m\bme\bes\bss\bsa\bag\bge\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk [!]_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd
- In ``macros'' or ``push'' commands, you can use the ``tag-prefix-
- cond'' operator. If there are no tagged messages, mutt will "eat" the
- rest of the macro to abort it's execution. Mutt will stop "eating"
- the macro when it encounters the ``end-cond'' operator; after this
- operator the rest of the macro will be executed as normal.
+ This command can be used to execute arbitrary configuration commands
+ before viewing or formatting a message based upon information about
+ the message. _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd is executed if the _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn matches the message to
+ be displayed. When multiple matches occur, commands are executed in
+ the order they are specified in the muttrc.
- \e[1m4.4. Using Hooks\e[0m

- A \e[4mhook\e[24m is a concept borrowed from the EMACS editor which allows you to
- execute arbitrary commands before performing some operation. For
- example, you may wish to tailor your configuration based upon which
- mailbox you are reading, or to whom you are sending mail. In the Mutt
- world, a \e[4mhook\e[24m consists of a ``regular expression'' or ``pattern''
- along with a configuration option/command. See
+ Example:
+message-hook ~A 'set pager=builtin'
+message-hook '~f freshmeat-news' 'set pager="less \"+/^ subject:.*\""'
- · ``folder-hook''
+23. Choosing the cryptographic key of the recipient
- · ``send-hook''
+ Usage: c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\bk_\be_\by_\bi_\bd
- · ``message-hook''
+ When encrypting messages with PGP or OpenSSL, you may want to
+ associate a certain key with a given e-mail address automatically,
+ either because the recipient's public key can't be deduced from the
+ destination address, or because, for some reasons, you need to
+ override the key Mutt-ng wouldnormally use. The c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk command
+ provides a method by which you can specify the ID of the public key to
+ be used when encrypting messages to a certain recipient.
- · ``save-hook''
+ The meaning of "key id" is to be taken broadly in this context: You
+ can either put a numerical key ID here, an e-mail address, or even
+ just a real name.
- · ``mbox-hook''
+24. Adding key sequences to the keyboard buffer
- · ``fcc-hook''
+ Usage: push_\bs_\bt_\br_\bi_\bn_\bg
- · ``fcc-save-hook''
+ This command adds the named string to the keyboard buffer. The string
+ may contain control characters, key names and function names like the
+ sequence string in the m\bma\bac\bcr\bro\bo command. You may use it to automatically
+ run a sequence of commands at startup, or when entering certain
+ folders. For example, the following command will automatically
+ collapse all threads when entering a folder:
+folder-hook . 'push <collapse-all>'
- for specific details on each type of \e[4mhook\e[24m available.
+25. Executing functions
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mif a hook changes configuration settings, these changes remain
- effective until the end of the current mutt session. As this is
- generally not desired, a default hook needs to be added before all
- other hooks to restore configuration defaults. Here is an example with
- send-hook and the my_hdr directive:
+ Usage: exec_\bf_\bu_\bn_\bc_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\b _\b[_\bf_\bu_\bn_\bc_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b _\b]
- send-hook . 'unmy_hdr From:'
- send-hook ~Cb@b.b my_hdr from: c@c.c
+ This command can be used to execute any function. Functions are listed
+ in the f\bfu\bun\bnc\bct\bti\bio\bon\bns\bs. ``exec function'' is equivalent to ``push
+ <function>''.
- \e[1m4.4.1. Message Matching in Hooks\e[0m
+26. Message Scoring
- Hooks that act upon messages (send-hook, save-hook, fcc-hook, message-
- hook) are evaluated in a slightly different manner. For the other
- types of hooks, a ``regular expression'' is sufficient. But in
- dealing with messages a finer grain of control is needed for matching
- since for different purposes you want to match different criteria.
+ Usage: score_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\b _\bv_\ba_\bl_\bu_\be
- Mutt allows the use of the ``search pattern'' language for matching
- messages in hook commands. This works in exactly the same way as it
- would when \e[4mlimiting\e[24m or \e[4msearching\e[24m the mailbox, except that you are
- restricted to those operators which match information mutt extracts
- from the header of the message (i.e. from, to, cc, date, subject,
- etc.).
+ Usage: unscore_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\b _\b[_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b _\b]
- For example, if you wanted to set your return address based upon
- sending mail to a specific address, you could do something like:
+ In situations where you have to cope with a lot of emails, e.g. when
+ you read many different mailing lists, and take part in discussions,
+ it is always useful to have the important messages marked and the
+ annoying messages or the ones that you aren't interested in deleted.
+ For this purpose, mutt-ng features a mechanism called ``scoring''.
+
+ When you use scoring, every message has a base score of 0. You can
+ then use the score command to define patterns and a positive or
+ negative value associated with it. When a pattern matches a message,
+ the message's score will be raised or lowered by the amount of the
+ value associated with the pattern.
+
+score "~f nion@muttng\.org" 50
+score "~f @sco\.com" -100
+
+ If the pattern matches, it is also possible to set the score value of
+ the current message to a certain value and then stop evaluation:
+
+score "~f santaclaus@northpole\.int" =666
+
+ What is important to note is that negative score values will be
+ rounded up to 0.
+
+ To make scoring actually useful, the score must be applied in some
+ way. That's what the _\bs_\bc_\bo_\br_\be_\b _\bt_\bh_\br_\be_\bs_\bh_\bo_\bl_\bd_\bs are for. Currently, there are
+ three score thresholds:
+
+ * flag threshold: when a message has a score value equal or higher
+ than the flag threshold, it will be flagged.
+ * read threshold: when a message has a score value equal or lower
+ than the read threshold, it will be marked as read.
+ * delete threshold: when a message has a score value equal or lower
+ than the delete threshold, it will be marked as deleted.
+
+ These three thresholds can be set via the variables
+ $\b$s\bsc\bco\bor\bre\be_\b_t\bth\bhr\bre\bes\bsh\bho\bol\bld\bd_\b_r\bre\bea\bad\bd, $\b$s\bsc\bco\bor\bre\be_\b_t\bth\bhr\bre\bes\bsh\bho\bol\bld\bd_\b_f\bfl\bla\bag\bg and
+ $\b$s\bsc\bco\bor\bre\be_\b_t\bth\bhr\bre\bes\bsh\bho\bol\bld\bd_\b_d\bde\bel\ble\bet\bte\be.
+
+ By default, $\b$s\bsc\bco\bor\bre\be_\b_t\bth\bhr\bre\bes\bsh\bho\bol\bld\bd_\b_r\bre\bea\bad\bd and $\b$s\bsc\bco\bor\bre\be_\b_t\bth\bhr\bre\bes\bsh\bho\bol\bld\bd_\b_d\bde\bel\ble\bet\bte\be are set
+ to -1, which means that in the default threshold configuration no
+ message will ever get marked as read or deleted.
+
+ Scoring gets especially interesting when combined with the color
+ command and the ~n pattern:
+
+color index black yellow "~n 10-"
+color index red yellow "~n 100-"
+
+ The rules above mark all messages with a score between 10 and 99 with
+ black and yellow, and messages with a score greater or equal 100 with
+ red and yellow. This might be unusual to you if you're used to e.g.
+ slrn's scoring mechanism, but it is more flexible, as it visually
+ marks different scores.
+
+27. Spam detection
+
+ Usage: spam_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\b _\bf_\bo_\br_\bm_\ba_\bt
+
+ Usage: nospam_\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn
+
+ Mutt-ng has generalized support for external spam-scoring filters. By
+ defining your spam patterns with the spam and nospam commands, you can
+ _\bl_\bi_\bm_\bi_\bt, _\bs_\be_\ba_\br_\bc_\bh, and _\bs_\bo_\br_\bt your mail based on its spam attributes, as
+ determined by the external filter. You also can display the spam
+ attributes in your index display using the %H selector in the
+ $\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt variable. (Tip: try %?H?[%H] ? to display spam tags only
+ when they are defined for a given message.)
+
+ Your first step is to define your external filter's spam patterns
+ using the spam command. _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn should be a regular expression that
+ matches a header in a mail message. If any message in the mailbox
+ matches this regular expression, it will receive a ``spam tag'' or
+ ``spam attribute'' (unless it also matches a nospam pattern -- see
+ below.) The appearance of this attribute is entirely up to you, and is
+ governed by the _\bf_\bo_\br_\bm_\ba_\bt parameter. _\bf_\bo_\br_\bm_\ba_\bt can be any static text, but
+ it also can include back-references from the _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn expression. (A
+ regular expression ``back-reference'' refers to a sub-expression
+ contained within parentheses.) %1 is replaced with the first
+ back-reference in the regex, %2 with the second, etc.
+
+ If you're using multiple spam filters, a message can have more than
+ one spam-related header. You can define spam patterns for each filter
+ you use. If a message matches two or more of these patterns, and the
+ $spam_separator variable is set to a string, then the message's spam
+ tag will consist of all the _\bf_\bo_\br_\bm_\ba_\bt strings joined together, with the
+ value of $spam_separator separating them.
+
+ For example, suppose I use DCC, SpamAssassin, and PureMessage. I might
+ define these spam settings:
+spam "X-DCC-.*-Metrics:.*(....)=many" "90+/DCC-%1"
+spam "X-Spam-Status: Yes" "90+/SA"
+spam "X-PerlMX-Spam: .*Probability=([0-9]+)%" "%1/PM"
+set spam_separator=", "
+
+ If I then received a message that DCC registered with ``many'' hits
+ under the ``Fuz2'' checksum, and that PureMessage registered with a
+ 97% probability of being spam, that message's spam tag would
+ read90+/DCC-Fuz2, 97/PM. (The four characters before ``=many'' in a
+ DCC report indicate the checksum used -- in this case, ``Fuz2''.)
+
+ If the $spam_separator variable is unset, then each spam pattern match
+ supersedes the previous one. Instead of getting joined _\bf_\bo_\br_\bm_\ba_\bt strings,
+ you'll get only the last one to match.
+
+ The spam tag is what will be displayed in the index when you use %H in
+ the $index_format variable. It's also the string that the ~H
+ pattern-matching expression matches against for _\bs_\be_\ba_\br_\bc_\bh and _\bl_\bi_\bm_\bi_\bt
+ functions. And it's what sorting by spam attribute will use as a sort
+ key.
+
+ That's a pretty complicated example, and most people's actual
+ environments will have only one spam filter. The simpler your
+ configuration, the more effective mutt can be, especially when it
+ comes to sorting.
+
+ Generally, when you sort by spam tag, mutt will sort _\bl_\be_\bx_\bi_\bc_\ba_\bl_\bl_\by -- that
+ is, by ordering strings alphnumerically. However, if a spam tag begins
+ with a number, mutt will sort numerically first, and lexically only
+ when two numbers are equal in value. (This is like UNIX's sort -n.) A
+ message with no spam attributes at all -- that is, one that didn't
+ match _\ba_\bn_\by of your spam patterns -- is sorted at lowest priority.
+ Numbers are sorted next, beginning with 0 and ranging upward. Finally,
+ non-numeric strings are sorted, with ``a'' taking lowerpriority than
+ ``z''. Clearly, in general, sorting by spam tags is most effective
+ when you can coerce your filter to give you a raw number. But in case
+ you can't, mutt can still do something useful.
+
+ The nospam command can be used to write exceptions to spam patterns.
+ If a header pattern matches something in a spam command, but you
+ nonetheless do not want it to receive a spam tag, you can list amore
+ precise pattern under a nospam command.
+
+ If the _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn given to nospam is exactly the same as the _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn on
+ an existing spam list entry, the effect will be to remove the entry
+ from the spam list, instead of adding an exception. Likewise, if the
+ _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn for a spam command matches an entry on the nospam list, that
+ nospam entry will be removed. If the _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn for nospam is ``*'', _\ba_\bl_\bl
+ _\be_\bn_\bt_\br_\bi_\be_\bs_\b _\bo_\bn_\b _\bb_\bo_\bt_\bh_\b _\bl_\bi_\bs_\bt_\bs will be removed. This might be the default
+ action if you use spam and nospam in conjunction with a f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk.
+
+ You can have as many spam or nospam commands as you like. You can even
+ do your own primitive spam detection within mutt -- for example, if
+ you consider all mail from MAILER-DAEMON to be spam, you can use a
+ spam command like this:
+
+spam "^From: .*MAILER-DAEMON" "999"
+
+28. Setting variables
+
+ Usage: set_\b[_\bn_\bo_\b|_\bi_\bn_\bv_\b]_\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b[_\b=_\bv_\ba_\bl_\bu_\be_\b]_\b _\b[_\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ Usage: toggle_\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b[_\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ Usage: unset_\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b[_\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ Usage: reset_\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b[_\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ This command is used to set (and unset) v\bva\bar\bri\bia\bab\bbl\ble\bes\bs. There are four
+ basic types of variables: boolean, number, string and quadoption.
+ _\bb_\bo_\bo_\bl_\be_\ba_\bn variables can be _\bs_\be_\bt (true) or _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt (false). _\bn_\bu_\bm_\bb_\be_\br variables
+ can be assigned a positive integer value.
+
+ _\bs_\bt_\br_\bi_\bn_\bg variables consist of any number of printable characters.
+ _\bs_\bt_\br_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bs must be enclosed in quotes if they contain spaces or tabs. You
+ may also use the ``C'' escape sequences _\b\_\bn and _\b\_\bt for newline and tab,
+ respectively.
- send-hook '~t ^me@cs\.hmc\.edu$' 'my_hdr From: Mutt User <user@host>'
+ _\bq_\bu_\ba_\bd_\bo_\bp_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn variables are used to control whether or not to be prompted
+ for certain actions, or to specify a default action. A value of _\by_\be_\bs
+ will cause the action to be carried out automatically as if you had
+ answered yes to the question. Similarly, a value of _\bn_\bo will cause the
+ the action to be carried out as if you had answered ``no.'' A value of
+ _\ba_\bs_\bk_\b-_\by_\be_\bs will cause a prompt with a default answer of ``yes'' and
+ _\ba_\bs_\bk_\b-_\bn_\bo will provide a default answer of ``no.''
- which would execute the given command when sending mail to
- \e[4mme@cs.hmc.edu\e[24m.
+ Prefixing a variable with ``no'' will unset it. Example: set noaskbcc
+ .
- However, it is not required that you write the pattern to match using
- the full searching language. You can still specify a simple \e[4mregular\e[0m
- \e[4mexpression\e[24m like the other hooks, in which case Mutt will translate
- your pattern into the full language, using the translation specified
- by the ``$default_hook'' variable. The pattern is translated at the
- time the hook is declared, so the value of ``$default_hook'' that is
- in effect at that time will be used.
+ For _\bb_\bo_\bo_\bl_\be_\ba_\bn variables, you may optionally prefix the variable name
+ with inv to toggle the value (on or off). This is useful when writing
+ macros. Example: set invsmart_wrap.
- \e[1m4.5. External Address Queries\e[0m
+ The toggle command automatically prepends the inv prefix to all
+ specified variables.
- Mutt supports connecting to external directory databases such as LDAP,
- ph/qi, bbdb, or NIS through a wrapper script which connects to mutt
- using a simple interface. Using the ``$query_command'' variable, you
- specify the wrapper command to use. For example:
+ The unset command automatically prepends the no prefix to all
+ specified variables.
- set query_command = "mutt_ldap_query.pl '%s'"
+ Using the enter-command function in the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx menu, you can query the
+ value of a variable by prefixing the name of the variable with a
+ question mark:
- The wrapper script should accept the query on the command-line. It
- should return a one line message, then each matching response on a
- single line, each line containing a tab separated address then name
- then some other optional information. On error, or if there are no
- matching addresses, return a non-zero exit code and a one line error
- message.
-
- An example multiple response output:
+set ?allow_8bit
- Searching database ... 20 entries ... 3 matching:
- me@cs.hmc.edu Michael Elkins mutt dude
- blong@fiction.net Brandon Long mutt and more
- roessler@guug.de Thomas Roessler mutt pgp
-
- There are two mechanisms for accessing the query function of mutt.
- One is to do a query from the index menu using the query function
- (default: Q). This will prompt for a query, then bring up the query
- menu which will list the matching responses. From the query menu, you
- can select addresses to create aliases, or to mail. You can tag
- multiple addresses to mail, start a new query, or have a new query
- appended to the current responses.
-
- The other mechanism for accessing the query function is for address
- completion, similar to the alias completion. In any prompt for
- address entry, you can use the complete-query function (default: ^T)
- to run a query based on the current address you have typed. Like
- aliases, mutt will look for what you have typed back to the last space
- or comma. If there is a single response for that query, mutt will
- expand the address in place. If there are multiple responses, mutt
- will activate the query menu. At the query menu, you can select one
- or more addresses to be added to the prompt.
-
- \e[1m4.6. Mailbox Formats\e[0m
-
- Mutt supports reading and writing of four different mailbox formats:
- mbox, MMDF, MH and Maildir. The mailbox type is autodetected, so
- there is no need to use a flag for different mailbox types. When
- creating new mailboxes, Mutt uses the default specified with the
- ``$mbox_type'' variable.
-
- \e[1mmbox\e[22m. This is the most widely used mailbox format for UNIX. All
- messages are stored in a single file. Each message has a line of the
- form:
-
- From me@cs.hmc.edu Fri, 11 Apr 1997 11:44:56 PST
-
- to denote the start of a new message (this is often referred to as the
- ``From_'' line).
-
- \e[1mMMDF\e[22m. This is a variant of the \e[4mmbox\e[24m format. Each message is
- surrounded by lines containing ``^A^A^A^A'' (four control-A's).
-
- \e[1mMH\e[22m. A radical departure from \e[4mmbox\e[24m and \e[4mMMDF\e[24m, a mailbox consists of a
- directory and each message is stored in a separate file. The filename
- indicates the message number (however, this is may not correspond to
- the message number Mutt displays). Deleted messages are renamed with a
- comma (,) prepended to the filename. \e[1mNote: \e[22mMutt detects this type of
- mailbox by looking for either .mh_sequences or .xmhcache (needed to
- distinguish normal directories from MH mailboxes).
-
- \e[1mMaildir\e[22m. The newest of the mailbox formats, used by the Qmail MTA (a
- replacement for sendmail). Similar to \e[4mMH\e[24m, except that it adds three
- subdirectories of the mailbox: \e[4mtmp\e[24m, \e[4mnew\e[24m and \e[4mcur\e[24m. Filenames for the
- messages are chosen in such a way they are unique, even when two
- programs are writing the mailbox over NFS, which means that no file
- locking is needed.
-
- \e[1m4.7. Mailbox Shortcuts\e[0m
-
- There are a number of built in shortcuts which refer to specific
- mailboxes. These shortcuts can be used anywhere you are prompted for
- a file or mailbox path.
-
- · ! -- refers to your ``$spoolfile'' (incoming) mailbox
-
- · > -- refers to your ``$mbox'' file
-
- · < -- refers to your ``$record'' file
-
- · - or !! -- refers to the file you've last visited
-
- · ~ -- refers to your home directory
-
- · = or + -- refers to your ``$folder'' directory
-
- · @\e[4malias\e[24m -- refers to the ``default save folder'' as determined by
- the address of the alias
-
- \e[1m4.8. Handling Mailing Lists\e[0m
-
- Mutt has a few configuration options that make dealing with large
- amounts of mail easier. The first thing you must do is to let Mutt
- know what addresses you consider to be mailing lists (technically this
- does not have to be a mailing list, but that is what it is most often
- used for), and what lists you are subscribed to. This is accomplished
- through the use of the ``lists and subscribe'' commands in your
- muttrc.
-
- Now that Mutt knows what your mailing lists are, it can do several
- things, the first of which is the ability to show the name of a list
- through which you received a message (i.e., of a subscribed list) in
- the \e[4mindex\e[24m menu display. This is useful to distinguish between
- personal and list mail in the same mailbox. In the ``$index_format''
- variable, the escape ``%L'' will return the string ``To <list>'' when
- ``list'' appears in the ``To'' field, and ``Cc <list>'' when it
- appears in the ``Cc'' field (otherwise it returns the name of the
- author).
-
- Often times the ``To'' and ``Cc'' fields in mailing list messages tend
- to get quite large. Most people do not bother to remove the author of
- the message they are reply to from the list, resulting in two or more
- copies being sent to that person. The ``list-reply'' function, which
- by default is bound to ``L'' in the \e[4mindex\e[24m menu and \e[4mpager\e[24m, helps reduce
- the clutter by only replying to the known mailing list addresses
- instead of all recipients (except as specified by Mail-Followup-To,
- see below).
-
- Mutt also supports the Mail-Followup-To header. When you send a
- message to a list of recipients which includes one or several
- subscribed mailing lists, and if the ``$followup_to'' option is set,
- mutt will generate a Mail-Followup-To header which contains all the
- recipients to whom you send this message, but not your address. This
- indicates that group-replies or list-replies (also known as
- ``followups'') to this message should only be sent to the original
- recipients of the message, and not separately to you - you'll receive
- your copy through one of the mailing lists you are subscribed to.
-
- Conversely, when group-replying or list-replying to a message which
- has a Mail-Followup-To header, mutt will respect this header if the
- ``$honor_followup_to'' configuration variable is set. Using list-
- reply will in this case also make sure that the reply goes to the
- mailing list, even if it's not specified in the list of recipients in
- the Mail-Followup-To.
-
- Note that, when header editing is enabled, you can create a Mail-
- Followup-To header manually. Mutt will only auto-generate this header
- if it doesn't exist when you send the message.
-
- The other method some mailing list admins use is to generate a
- ``Reply-To'' field which points back to the mailing list address
- rather than the author of the message. This can create problems when
- trying to reply directly to the author in private, since most mail
- clients will automatically reply to the address given in the ``Reply-
- To'' field. Mutt uses the ``$reply_to'' variable to help decide which
- address to use. If set, you will be prompted as to whether or not you
- would like to use the address given in the ``Reply-To'' field, or
- reply directly to the address given in the ``From'' field. When
- unset, the ``Reply-To'' field will be used when present.
-
- The ``X-Label:'' header field can be used to further identify mailing
- lists or list subject matter (or just to annotate messages
- individually). The ``$index_format'' variable's ``%y'' and ``%Y''
- escapes can be used to expand ``X-Label:'' fields in the index, and
- Mutt's pattern-matcher can match regular expressions to ``X-Label:''
- fields with the ``y'' selector. ``X-Label:'' is not a standard
- message header field, but it can easily be inserted by procmail and
- other mail filtering agents.
-
- Lastly, Mutt has the ability to ``sort'' the mailbox into ``threads''.
- A thread is a group of messages which all relate to the same subject.
- This is usually organized into a tree-like structure where a message
- and all of its replies are represented graphically. If you've ever
- used a threaded news client, this is the same concept. It makes
- dealing with large volume mailing lists easier because you can easily
- delete uninteresting threads and quickly find topics of value.
-
- \e[1m4.9. Delivery Status Notification (DSN) Support\e[0m
-
- RFC1894 defines a set of MIME content types for relaying information
- about the status of electronic mail messages. These can be thought of
- as ``return receipts.'' Berkeley sendmail 8.8.x currently has some
- command line options in which the mail client can make requests as to
- what type of status messages should be returned.
-
- To support this, there are two variables. ``$dsn_notify'' is used to
- request receipts for different results (such as failed message,
- message delivered, etc.). ``$dsn_return'' requests how much of your
- message should be returned with the receipt (headers or full message).
- Refer to the man page on sendmail for more details on DSN.
-
- \e[1m4.10. POP3 Support (OPTIONAL)\e[0m
-
- If Mutt was compiled with POP3 support (by running the \e[4mconfigure\e[0m
- script with the \e[4m--enable-pop\e[24m flag), it has the ability to work with
- mailboxes located on a remote POP3 server and fetch mail for local
- browsing.
-
- You can access the remote POP3 mailbox by selecting the folder
- pop://popserver/.
-
- You can select an alternative port by specifying it with the server,
- ie: pop://popserver:port/.
-
- You can also specify different username for each folder, ie:
- pop://username@popserver[:port]/.
-
- Polling for new mail is more expensive over POP3 than locally. For
- this reason the frequency at which Mutt will check for mail remotely
- can be controlled by the ``$pop_checkinterval'' variable, which
- defaults to every 60 seconds.
-
- If Mutt was compiled with SSL support (by running the \e[4mconfigure\e[24m script
- with the \e[4m--with-ssl\e[24m flag), connections to POP3 servers can be
- encrypted. This naturally requires that the server supports SSL
- encrypted connections. To access a folder with POP3/SSL, you should
- use pops: prefix, ie: pops://[username@]popserver[:port]/.
-
- Another way to access your POP3 mail is the \e[4mfetch-mail\e[24m function
- (default: G). It allows to connect to ``pop_host'', fetch all your
- new mail and place it in the local ``spoolfile''. After this point,
- Mutt runs exactly as if the mail had always been local.
-
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mIf you only need to fetch all messages to local mailbox you
- should consider using a specialized program, such as fetchmail
-
- \e[1m4.11. IMAP Support (OPTIONAL)\e[0m
-
- If Mutt was compiled with IMAP support (by running the \e[4mconfigure\e[0m
- script with the \e[4m--enable-imap\e[24m flag), it has the ability to work with
- folders located on a remote IMAP server.
-
- You can access the remote inbox by selecting the folder
- imap://imapserver/INBOX, where imapserver is the name of the IMAP
- server and INBOX is the special name for your spool mailbox on the
- IMAP server. If you want to access another mail folder at the IMAP
- server, you should use imap://imapserver/path/to/folder where
- path/to/folder is the path of the folder you want to access.
-
- You can select an alternative port by specifying it with the server,
- ie: imap://imapserver:port/INBOX.
-
- You can also specify different username for each folder, ie:
- imap://username@imapserver[:port]/INBOX.
-
- If Mutt was compiled with SSL support (by running the \e[4mconfigure\e[24m script
- with the \e[4m--with-ssl\e[24m flag), connections to IMAP servers can be
- encrypted. This naturally requires that the server supports SSL
- encrypted connections. To access a folder with IMAP/SSL, you should
- use imaps://[username@]imapserver[:port]/path/to/folder as your folder
- path.
-
- Pine-compatible notation is also supported, ie
- {[username@]imapserver[:port][/ssl]}path/to/folder
-
- Note that not all servers use / as the hierarchy separator. Mutt
- should correctly notice which separator is being used by the server
- and convert paths accordingly.
-
- When browsing folders on an IMAP server, you can toggle whether to
- look at only the folders you are subscribed to, or all folders with
- the \e[4mtoggle-subscribed\e[24m command. See also the ``$imap_list_subscribed''
- variable.
-
- Polling for new mail on an IMAP server can cause noticeable delays.
- So, you'll want to carefully tune the ``$mail_check'' and ``$timeout''
- variables. Personally I use
-
- set mail_check=90
- set timeout=15
-
- with relatively good results over my slow modem line.
-
- Note that if you are using mbox as the mail store on UW servers prior
- to v12.250, the server has been reported to disconnect a client if
- another client selects the same folder.
-
- \e[1m4.11.1. The Folder Browser\e[0m
-
- As of version 1.2, mutt supports browsing mailboxes on an IMAP server.
- This is mostly the same as the local file browser, with the following
- differences:
-
- · In lieu of file permissions, mutt displays the string "IMAP",
- possibly followed by the symbol "+", indicating that the entry
- contains both messages and subfolders. On Cyrus-like servers
- folders will often contain both messages and subfolders.
-
- · For the case where an entry can contain both messages and
- subfolders, the selection key (bound to enter by default) will
- choose to descend into the subfolder view. If you wish to view the
- messages in that folder, you must use view-file instead (bound to
- space by default).
-
- · You can delete mailboxes with the delete-mailbox command (bound to
- d by default. You may also subscribe and unsubscribe to mailboxes
- (normally these are bound to s and u, respectively).
-
- \e[1m4.11.2. Authentication\e[0m
-
- Mutt supports four authentication methods with IMAP servers: SASL,
- GSSAPI, CRAM-MD5, and LOGIN (there is a patch by Grant Edwards to add
- NTLM authentication for you poor exchange users out there, but it has
- yet to be integrated into the main tree). There is also support for
- the pseudo-protocol ANONYMOUS, which allows you to log in to a public
- IMAP server without having an account. To use ANONYMOUS, simply make
- your username blank or "anonymous".
-
- SASL is a special super-authenticator, which selects among several
- protocols (including GSSAPI, CRAM-MD5, ANONYMOUS, and DIGEST-MD5) the
- most secure method available on your host and the server. Using some
- of these methods (including DIGEST-MD5 and possibly GSSAPI), your
- entire session will be encrypted and invisible to those teeming
- network snoops. It is the best option if you have it. To use it, you
- must have the Cyrus SASL library installed on your system and compile
- mutt with the \e[4m--with-sasl\e[24m flag.
-
- Mutt will try whichever methods are compiled in and available on the
- server, in the following order: SASL, ANONYMOUS, GSSAPI, CRAM-MD5,
- LOGIN.
-
- There are a few variables which control authentication:
+ The question mark is actually only required for boolean and quadoption
+ variables.
- · ``$imap_user'' - controls the username under which you request
- authentication on the IMAP server, for all authenticators. This is
- overridden by an explicit username in the mailbox path (ie by using
- a mailbox name of the form {user@host}).
-
- · ``$imap_pass'' - a password which you may preset, used by all
- authentication methods where a password is needed.
-
- · ``$imap_authenticators'' - a colon-delimited list of IMAP
- authentication methods to try, in the order you wish to try them.
- If specified, this overrides mutt's default (attempt everything, in
- the order listed above).
-
- \e[1m4.12. Managing multiple IMAP/POP accounts (OPTIONAL)\e[0m
+ The reset command resets all given variables to the compile time
+ defaults (hopefully mentioned in this manual). If you use the command
+ set and prefix the variable with ``&'' this has the same behavior as
+ the reset command.
- If you happen to have accounts on multiple IMAP and/or POP servers,
- you may find managing all the authentication settings inconvenient and
- error-prone. The account-hook command may help. This hook works like
- folder-hook but is invoked whenever you access a remote mailbox
- (including inside the folder browser), not just when you open the
- mailbox.
-
- Some examples:
-
- account-hook . 'unset imap_user; unset imap_pass; unset tunnel'
- account-hook imap://host1/ 'set imap_user=me1 imap_pass=foo'
- account-hook imap://host2/ 'set tunnel="ssh host2 /usr/libexec/imapd"'
-
- \e[1m4.13. Start a WWW Browser on URLs (EXTERNAL)\e[0m
-
- If a message contains URLs (\e[4munified\e[24m \e[4mresource\e[24m \e[4mlocator\e[24m = address in the
- WWW space like \e[4mhttp://www.mutt.org/\e[24m), it is efficient to get a menu
- with all the URLs and start a WWW browser on one of them. This
- functionality is provided by the external urlview program which can be
- retrieved at ftp://ftp.mutt.org/mutt/contrib/ and the configuration
- commands:
-
- macro index \cb |urlview\n
- macro pager \cb |urlview\n
-
- \e[1m5. Mutt's MIME Support\e[0m
-
- Quite a bit of effort has been made to make Mutt the premier text-mode
- MIME MUA. Every effort has been made to provide the functionality
- that the discerning MIME user requires, and the conformance to the
- standards wherever possible. When configuring Mutt for MIME, there
- are two extra types of configuration files which Mutt uses. One is
- the mime.types file, which contains the mapping of file extensions to
- IANA MIME types. The other is the mailcap file, which specifies the
- external commands to use for handling specific MIME types.
-
- \e[1m5.1. Using MIME in Mutt\e[0m
-
- There are three areas/menus in Mutt which deal with MIME, they are the
- pager (while viewing a message), the attachment menu and the compose
- menu.
-
- \e[1m5.1.1. Viewing MIME messages in the pager\e[0m
-
- When you select a message from the index and view it in the pager,
- Mutt decodes the message to a text representation. Mutt internally
- supports a number of MIME types, including text/plain, text/enriched,
- message/rfc822, and message/news. In addition, the export controlled
- version of Mutt recognizes a variety of PGP MIME types, including
- PGP/MIME and application/pgp.
-
- Mutt will denote attachments with a couple lines describing them.
- These lines are of the form:
-
- [-- Attachment #1: Description --]
- [-- Type: text/plain, Encoding: 7bit, Size: 10000 --]
-
- Where the Description is the description or filename given for the
- attachment, and the Encoding is one of 7bit/8bit/quoted-print-
- able/base64/binary.
-
- If Mutt cannot deal with a MIME type, it will display a message like:
-
- [-- image/gif is unsupported (use 'v' to view this part) --]
-
- \e[1m5.1.2. The Attachment Menu\e[0m
-
- The default binding for view-attachments is `v', which displays the
- attachment menu for a message. The attachment menu displays a list of
- the attachments in a message. From the attachment menu, you can save,
- print, pipe, delete, and view attachments. You can apply these
- operations to a group of attachments at once, by tagging the
- attachments and by using the ``tag-prefix'' operator. You can also
- reply to the current message from this menu, and only the current
- attachment (or the attachments tagged) will be quoted in your reply.
- You can view attachments as text, or view them using the mailcap
- viewer definition.
-
- Finally, you can apply the usual message-related functions (like
- ``resend-message'', and the reply and forward functions) to
- attachments of type message/rfc822.
-
- See the help on the attachment menu for more information.
-
- \e[1m5.1.3. The Compose Menu\e[0m
-
- The compose menu is the menu you see before you send a message. It
- allows you to edit the recipient list, the subject, and other aspects
- of your message. It also contains a list of the attachments of your
- message, including the main body. From this menu, you can print,
- copy, filter, pipe, edit, compose, review, and rename an attachment or
- a list of tagged attachments. You can also modifying the attachment
- information, notably the type, encoding and description.
-
- Attachments appear as follows:
-
- - 1 [text/plain, 7bit, 1K] /tmp/mutt-euler-8082-0 <no description>
- 2 [applica/x-gunzip, base64, 422K] ~/src/mutt-0.85.tar.gz <no description>
-
- The '-' denotes that Mutt will delete the file after sending (or
- postponing, or cancelling) 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 the edit-type command (default:
- ^T). The next field is the encoding for the attachment, which allows
- a binary message to be encoded for transmission on 7bit links. It can
- be changed with the edit-encoding command (default: ^E). The next
- field is the size of the attachment, rounded to kilobytes or
- megabytes. The next field is the filename, which can be changed with
- the rename-file command (default: R). The final field is the
- description of the attachment, and can be changed with the edit-
- description command (default: d).
-
- \e[1m5.2. MIME Type configuration with mime.types\e[0m
-
- When you add an attachment to your mail message, Mutt 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
-
- The mime.types file consist of lines containing a MIME type and a
- space separated list of extensions. For example:
-
- application/postscript ps eps
- application/pgp pgp
- audio/x-aiff aif aifc aiff
-
- A sample mime.types file comes with the Mutt distribution, and should
- contain most of the MIME types you are likely to use.
-
- If Mutt can not determine the mime type by the extension of the file
- you attach, it will look at the file. If the file is free of binary
- information, Mutt will assume that the file is plain text, and mark it
- as text/plain. If the file contains binary information, then Mutt
- will mark it as application/octet-stream. You can change the MIME
- type that Mutt assigns to an attachment by using the edit-type command
- from the compose menu (default: ^T). The MIME type is actually a major
- mime type followed by the sub-type, separated by a '/'. 6 major types:
- application, text, image, video, audio, and model have been approved
- after various internet discussions. Mutt recognises all of these if
- the appropriate entry is found in the mime.types file. It also
- recognises other major mime types, such as the chemical type that is
- widely used in the molecular modelling community to pass molecular
- data in various forms to various molecular viewers. Non-recognised
- mime types should only be used if the recipient of the message is
- likely to be expecting such attachments.
-
- \e[1m5.3. MIME Viewer configuration with mailcap\e[0m
-
- Mutt supports RFC 1524 MIME Configuration, in particular the Unix
- specific format specified in Appendix A of RFC 1524. This file format
- is commonly 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 can not handle
- internally, Mutt parses a series of external configuration files to
- find an external handler. The default search string for these files
- is a colon delimited list set to
-
- ${HOME}/.mailcap:/usr/local/share/mutt/mailcap:/etc/mailcap:/etc/mailcap:/usr/etc/mailcap:/usr/local/etc/mailcap
-
- where $HOME is your home directory.
-
- In particular, the metamail distribution will install a mailcap file,
- usually as /usr/local/etc/mailcap, which contains some baseline
- entries.
-
- \e[1m5.3.1. The Basics of the mailcap file\e[0m
-
- A mailcap file consists of a series of lines which are comments,
- blank, or definitions.
-
- A comment line consists of a # character followed by anything you
- want.
-
- A blank line is blank.
-
- A definition line consists of a content type, a view command, and any
- number of optional fields. Each field of a definition line is divided
- by a semicolon ';' character.
-
- The content type is specified in the MIME standard type/subtype
- method. For example, text/plain, text/html, image/gif, etc. In
- addition, the mailcap format includes two formats for wildcards, one
- using the special '*' subtype, the other is the implicit wild, where
- you only include the major type. For example, image/*, or video, will
- match all image types and video types, respectively.
-
- The view command is a Unix command for viewing the type specified.
- There are two different types of commands supported. The default is to
- send the body of the MIME message to the command on stdin. You can
- change this behaviour by using %s as a parameter to your view command.
- This will cause Mutt to save the body of the MIME message to a
- temporary file, and then call the view command with the %s replaced by
- the name of the temporary file. In both cases, Mutt will turn over the
- terminal to the view program until the program quits, at which time
- Mutt will remove the temporary file if it exists.
-
- So, in the simplest form, you can send a text/plain message to the
- external pager more on stdin:
-
- text/plain; more
-
- Or, you could send the message as a file:
-
- text/plain; more %s
-
- Perhaps you would like to use lynx to interactively view a text/html
- message:
-
- text/html; lynx %s
-
- In this case, lynx does not support viewing a file from stdin, so you
- must use the %s syntax. \e[1mNote: \e[4m\e[22mSome\e[24m \e[4molder\e[24m \e[4mversions\e[24m \e[4mof\e[24m \e[4mlynx\e[24m \e[4mcontain\e[24m \e[4ma\e[0m

-
- On the other hand, maybe you don't want to use lynx interactively, you
- just want to have it convert the text/html to text/plain, then you can
- use:
-
- text/html; lynx -dump %s | more
-
- Perhaps you wish to use lynx to view text/html files, and a pager on
- all other text formats, then you would use the following:
-
- text/html; lynx %s
- text/*; more
-
- This is the simplest form of a mailcap file.
- \e[1m5.3.2. Secure use of mailcap\e[0m
-
- The interpretion of shell meta-characters embedded in MIME parameters
- can lead to security problems in general. Mutt tries to quote
- parameters in expansion of %s syntaxes properly, and avoids risky
- characters by substituting them, see the ``mailcap_sanitize''
- variable.
-
- Although mutt's procedures to invoke programs with mailcap seem to be
- safe, there are other applications parsing mailcap, maybe taking less
- care of it. Therefore you should pay attention to the following
- rules:
-
- \e[4mKeep\e[24m \e[4mthe\e[24m \e[4m%-expandos\e[24m \e[4maway\e[24m \e[4mfrom\e[24m \e[4mshell\e[24m \e[4mquoting.\e[24m Don't quote them with
- single or double quotes. Mutt does this for you, the right way, as
- should any other program which interprets mailcap. Don't put them
- into backtick expansions. Be highly careful with eval statements, and
- avoid them if possible at all. Trying to fix broken behaviour with
- quotes introduces new leaks - there is no alternative to correct
- quoting in the first place.
-
- If you have to use the %-expandos' values in context where you need
- quoting or backtick expansions, put that value into a shell variable
- and reference the shell variable where necessary, as in the following
- example (using $charset inside the backtick expansion is safe, since
- it is not itself subject to any further expansion):
-
- text/test-mailcap-bug; cat %s; copiousoutput; test=charset=%{charset} \
- && test "`echo $charset | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`" != iso-8859-1

- \e[1m5.3.3. Advanced mailcap Usage\e[0m
-
- \e[1m5.3.3.1. Optional Fields\e[0m
-
- In addition to the required content-type and view command fields, you
- can add semi-colon ';' separated fields to set flags and other
- options. Mutt recognizes the following optional fields:
-
- \e[1mcopiousoutput\e[0m
- This flag tells Mutt that the command passes possibly large
- amounts of text on stdout. This causes Mutt to invoke a pager
- (either the internal pager or the external pager defined by the
- pager variable) on the output of the view command. Without this
- flag, Mutt assumes that the command is interactive. One could
- use this to replace the pipe to more in the lynx -dump example
- in the Basic section:
-
- text/html; lynx -dump %s ; copiousoutput
-
- This will cause lynx to format the text/html output as text/plain
- and Mutt will use your standard pager to display the results.
-
- \e[1mneedsterminal\e[0m
- Mutt uses this flag when viewing attachments with ``autoview'',
- in order to decide whether it should honor the setting of the
- ``$wait_key'' variable or not. When an attachment is viewed
- using an interactive program, and the corresponding mailcap
- entry has a \e[4mneedsterminal\e[24m flag, Mutt will use ``$wait_key'' and
- the exit status of the program to decide if it will ask you to
- press a key after the external program has exited. In all other
- situations it will not prompt you for a key.
-
- \e[1mcompose=<command>\e[0m
- This flag specifies the command to use to create a new
- attachment of a specific MIME type. Mutt supports this from the
- compose menu.
-
- \e[1mcomposetyped=<command>\e[0m
- This flag specifies the command to use to create a new
- attachment of a specific MIME type. This command differs from
- the compose command in that mutt will expect standard MIME
- headers on the data. This can be used to specify parameters,
- filename, description, etc. for a new attachment. Mutt
- supports this from the compose menu.
-
- \e[1mprint=<command>\e[0m
- This flag specifies the command to use to print a specific MIME
- type. Mutt supports this from the attachment and compose menus.
-
- \e[1medit=<command>\e[0m
- This flag specifies the command to use to edit a specific MIME
- type. Mutt supports this from the compose menu, and also uses
- it to compose new attachments. Mutt will default to the defined
- editor for text attachments.
-
- \e[1mnametemplate=<template>\e[0m
- This field specifies the format for the file denoted by %s in
- the command fields. Certain programs will require a certain
- file extension, for instance, to correctly view a file. For
- instance, lynx will only interpret a file as text/html if the
- file ends in .html. So, you would specify lynx as a text/html
- viewer with a line in the mailcap file like:
-
- text/html; lynx %s; nametemplate=%s.html
-
- \e[1mtest=<command>\e[0m
- This field specifies a command to run to test whether this
- mailcap entry should be used. The command is defined with the
- command expansion rules defined in the next section. If the
- command returns 0, then the test passed, and Mutt uses this
- entry. If the command returns non-zero, then the test failed,
- and Mutt continues searching for the right entry. \e[1mNote: \e[4m\e[22mthe\e[0m
- \e[4mcontent-type\e[24m \e[4mmust\e[24m \e[4mmatch\e[24m \e[4mbefore\e[24m \e[4mMutt\e[24m \e[4mperforms\e[24m \e[4mthe\e[24m \e[4mtest.\e[24m For
- example:
-
- text/html; netscape -remote 'openURL(%s)' ; test=RunningX
- text/html; lynx %s
-
- In this example, Mutt will run the program RunningX which will
- return 0 if the X Window manager is running, and non-zero if it
- isn't. If RunningX returns 0, then Mutt will call netscape to dis-
- play the text/html object. If RunningX doesn't return 0, then Mutt
- will go on to the next entry and use lynx to display the text/html
- object.
-
- \e[1m5.3.3.2. Search Order\e[0m
-
- When searching for an entry in the mailcap file, Mutt will search for
- the most useful entry for its purpose. For instance, if you are
- attempting to print an image/gif, and you have the following entries
- in your mailcap file, Mutt will search for an entry with the print
- command:
-
- image/*; xv %s
- image/gif; ; print= anytopnm %s | pnmtops | lpr; \
- nametemplate=%s.gif
-
- Mutt will skip the image/* entry and use the image/gif entry with the
- print command.
-
- In addition, you can use this with ``Autoview'' to denote two commands
- for viewing an attachment, one to be viewed automatically, the other
- to be viewed interactively from the attachment menu. In addition, you
- can then use the test feature to determine which viewer to use
- interactively depending on your environment.
-
- text/html; netscape -remote 'openURL(%s)' ; test=RunningX
- text/html; lynx %s; nametemplate=%s.html
- text/html; lynx -dump %s; nametemplate=%s.html; copiousoutput
-
- For ``Autoview'', Mutt will choose the third entry because of the
- copiousoutput tag. For interactive viewing, Mutt will run the program
- RunningX to determine if it should use the first entry. If the pro-
- gram returns non-zero, Mutt will use the second entry for interactive
- viewing.
-
- \e[1m5.3.3.3. Command Expansion\e[0m
-
- The various commands defined in the mailcap files are passed to the
- /bin/sh shell using the system() function. Before the command is
- passed to /bin/sh -c, it is parsed to expand various special
- parameters with information from Mutt. The keywords Mutt expands are:
-
- \e[1m%s \e[22mAs seen in the basic mailcap section, this variable is expanded
- to a filename specified by the calling program. This file
- contains the body of the message to view/print/edit or where the
- composing program should place the results of composition. In
- addition, the use of this keyword causes Mutt to not pass the
- body of the message to the view/print/edit program on stdin.
-
- \e[1m%t \e[22mMutt will expand %t to the text representation of the content
- type of the message in the same form as the first parameter of
- the mailcap definition line, ie text/html or image/gif.
-
-
\e[1m%{<parameter>}
\e[0m
- Mutt will expand this to the value of the specified parameter
- from the Content-Type: line of the mail message. For instance,
- if Your mail message contains:
- Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
-
- then Mutt will expand %{charset} to iso-8859-1. The default meta-
- mail mailcap file uses this feature to test the charset to spawn an
- xterm using the right charset to view the message.
-
- \e[1m\% \e[22mThis will be replaced by a %
-
- Mutt does not currently support the %F and %n keywords specified in
- RFC 1524. The main purpose of these parameters is for multipart mes-
- sages, which is handled internally by Mutt.
-
- \e[1m5.3.4. Example mailcap files\e[0m
-
- This mailcap file is fairly simple and standard:
+ With the reset command there exists the special variable ``all'',
+ which allows you to reset all variables to their system defaults.
- ______________________________________________________________________
- # I'm always running X :)
- video/*; xanim %s > /dev/null
- image/*; xv %s > /dev/null
+29. Reading initialization commands from another file
- # I'm always running netscape (if my computer had more memory, maybe)
- text/html; netscape -remote 'openURL(%s)'
- ______________________________________________________________________
+ Usage: source_\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\b _\b[_\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
- This mailcap file shows quite a number of examples:
-
- ______________________________________________________________________
- # Use xanim to view all videos Xanim produces a header on startup,
- # send that to /dev/null so I don't see it
- video/*; xanim %s > /dev/null
+ This command allows the inclusion of initialization commands from
+ other files. For example, I place all of my aliases in ~/.mail_aliases
+ so that I can make my ~/.muttrc readable and keep my aliases private.
- # Send html to a running netscape by remote
- text/html; netscape -remote 'openURL(%s)'; test=RunningNetscape
+ If the filename begins with a tilde (``~''), it will be expanded to
+ the path of your home directory.
- # If I'm not running netscape but I am running X, start netscape on the
- # object
- text/html; netscape %s; test=RunningX
+ If the filename ends with a vertical bar (|), then _\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be is
+ considered to be an executable program from which to read input (eg.
+ source ~/bin/myscript|).
- # Else use lynx to view it as text
- text/html; lynx %s
+30. Removing hooks
- # This version would convert the text/html to text/plain
- text/html; lynx -dump %s; copiousoutput
+ Usage: unhook_\b[_\b*_\b _\b|_\b _\bh_\bo_\bo_\bk_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b]
- # I use enscript to print text in two columns to a page
- text/*; more %s; print=enscript -2Gr %s
+ This command permits you to flush hooks you have previously defined.
+ You can either remove all hooks by giving the ``*'' character as an
+ argument, or you can remove all hooks of a specific type by saying
+ something like unhook send.
- # Netscape adds a flag to tell itself to view jpegs internally
- image/jpeg;xv %s; x-mozilla-flags=internal
+31. Sharing Setups
- # Use xv to view images if I'm running X
- # In addition, this uses the \ to extend the line and set my editor
- # for images
- image/*;xv %s; test=RunningX; \
- edit=xpaint %s
-
- # Convert images to text using the netpbm tools
- image/*; (anytopnm %s | pnmscale -xysize 80 46 | ppmtopgm | pgmtopbm |
- pbmtoascii -1x2 ) 2>&1 ; copiousoutput
-
- # Send excel spreadsheets to my NT box
- application/ms-excel; open.pl %s

- \e[1m5.4. MIME Autoview\e[0m
-
- In addition to explicitly telling Mutt to view an attachment with the
- MIME viewer defined in the mailcap file, Mutt has support for
- automatically viewing MIME attachments while in the pager.
+31.1. Character Sets
- To work, you must define a viewer in the mailcap file which uses the
- copiousoutput option to denote that it is non-interactive. Usually,
- you also use the entry to convert the attachment to a text
- representation which you can view in the pager.
+ As users may run mutt-ng on different systems, the configuration must
+ be maintained because it's likely that people want to use the setup
+ everywhere they use mutt-ng. And mutt-ng tries to help where it can.
- You then use the auto_view muttrc command to list the content-types
- that you wish to view automatically.
+ To not produce conflicts with different character sets, mutt-ng allows
+ users to specify in which character set their configuration files are
+ encoded. Please note that while reading the configuration files, this
+ is only respected after the corresponding declaration appears. It's
+ advised to put the following at the very beginning of a users
+ muttngrc:
- For instance, if you set auto_view to:
+set config_charset = "..."
- auto_view text/html application/x-gunzip application/postscript image/gif application/x-tar-gz
+ and replacing the dots with the actual character set. To avoid
+ problems while maintaining the setup, vim(1) user's may want to use
+ modelines as show in:
- Mutt could use the following mailcap entries to automatically view
- attachments of these types.
+# vim:fileencoding=...:
- text/html; lynx -dump %s; copiousoutput; nametemplate=%s.html
- image/*; anytopnm %s | pnmscale -xsize 80 -ysize 50 | ppmtopgm | pgmtopbm | pbmtoascii ; copiousoutput
- application/x-gunzip; gzcat; copiousoutput
- application/x-tar-gz; gunzip -c %s | tar -tf - ; copiousoutput
- application/postscript; ps2ascii %s; copiousoutput
+ while, again, replacing the dots with the appropriate name. This tells
+ vim(1) as which character set to read and save the file.
- ``unauto_view'' can be used to remove previous entries from the
- autoview list. This can be used with message-hook to autoview
- messages based on size, etc. ``unauto_view *'' will remove all
- previous entries.
+31.2. Modularization
- \e[1m5.5. MIME Multipart/Alternative\e[0m
+ ``Modularization'' means to divide the setup into several files while
+ sorting the options or commands by topic. Especially for longer setups
+ (e.g. with many hooks), this helps maintaining it and solving trouble.
- Mutt has some heuristics for determining which attachment of a
- multipart/alternative type to display. First, mutt will check the
- alternative_order list to determine if one of the available types is
- preferred. The alternative_order list consists of a number of
- mimetypes in order, including support for implicit and explicit
- wildcards, for example:
+ When using separation, setups may be, as a whole or in fractions,
+ shared over different systems.
- alternative_order text/enriched text/plain text application/postscript image/*
+31.3. Conditional parts
- Next, mutt will check if any of the types have a defined
- ``auto_view'', and use that. Failing that, Mutt will look for any
- text type. As a last attempt, mutt will look for any type it knows
- how to handle.
+ When using a configuration on different systems, the user may not
+ always have influence on how mutt-ng is installed and which features
+ it includes.
- To remove a MIME type from the alternative_order list, use the
- unalternative_order command.
+ To solve this, mutt-ng contain a feature based on the ``ifdef'' patch
+ written for mutt. Its basic syntax is:
- \e[1m5.6. MIME Lookup\e[0m
+ifdef <item> <command>
+ifndef <item> <command>
- Mutt's mime_lookup list specifies a list of mime-types that should not
- be treated according to their mailcap entry. This option is designed
- to deal with binary types such as application/octet-stream. When an
- attachment's mime-type is listed in mime_lookup, then the extension of
- the filename will be compared to the list of extensions in the
- mime.types file. The mime-type associated with this extension will
- then be used to process the attachment according to the rules in the
- mailcap file and according to any other configuration options (such as
- auto_view) specified. Common usage would be:
+ ...whereby <item> can be one of:
- mime_lookup application/octet-stream application/X-Lotus-Manuscript
+ * a function name
+ * a variable name
+ * a menu name
+ * a feature name
- In addition, the unmime_lookup command may be used to disable this
- feature for any particular mime-type if it had been set, for example,
- in a global muttrc.
+ All available functions, variables and menus are documented elsewhere
+ in this manual but ``features'' is specific to these two commands. To
+ test for one, prefix one of the following keywords with feature_:
+ ncurses, slang, iconv, idn, dotlock, standalone, pop, nntp, imap, ssl,
+ gnutls, sasl, sasl2, libesmtp, compressed, color, classic_pgp,
+ classic_smime, gpgme, header_cache
- \e[1m6. Reference\e[0m
+ As an example, one can use the following in ~/.muttngrc:
- \e[1m6.1. Command line options\e[0m
+ifdef feature_imap 'source ~/.mutt-ng/setup-imap'
+ifdef feature_pop 'source ~/.mutt-ng/setup-pop'
+ifdef feature_nntp 'source ~/.mutt-ng/setup-nntp'
- Running mutt with no arguments will make Mutt attempt to read your
- spool mailbox. However, it is possible to read other mailboxes and to
- send messages from the command line as well.
+ ...to only source ~/.mutt-ng/setup-imap if IMAP support is built in,
+ only source ~/.mutt-ng/setup-pop if POP support is built in and only
+ source ~/.mutt-ng/setup-nntp if NNTP support is built in.
- -A expand an alias
- -a attach a file to a message
- -b specify a blind carbon-copy (BCC) address
- -c specify a carbon-copy (Cc) address
- -e specify a config command to be run after initilization files are read
- -f specify a mailbox to load
- -F specify an alternate file to read initialization commands
- -h print help on command line options
- -H specify a draft file from which to read a header and body
- -i specify a file to include in a message composition
- -m specify a default mailbox type
- -n do not read the system Muttrc
- -p recall a postponed message
- -Q query a configuration variable
- -R open mailbox in read-only mode
- -s specify a subject (enclose in quotes if it contains spaces)
- -v show version number and compile-time definitions
- -x simulate the mailx(1) compose mode
- -y show a menu containing the files specified by the mailboxes command
- -z exit immediately if there are no messages in the mailbox
- -Z open the first folder with new message,exit immediately if none
+ An example for testing for variable names can be used if users use
+ different revisions of mutt-ng whereby the older one may not have a
+ certain variable. To test for the availability of $\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_m\bma\bai\bil\bl_\b_c\bch\bhe\bec\bck\bk
+ use:
- To read messages in a mailbox
+ifdef imap_mail_check 'set imap_mail_check = 300'
- mutt [ -nz ] [ -F \e[4mmuttrc\e[24m ] [ -m \e[4mtype\e[24m ] [ -f \e[4mmailbox\e[24m ]
+ Provided for completeness is the test for menu names. To set
+ $\b$p\bpa\bag\bge\ber\br_\b_i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_l\bli\bin\bne\bes\bs only if the pager menu is available, use:
- To compose a new message
+ifdef pager 'set pager_index_lines = 10'
- mutt [ -n ] [ -F \e[4mmuttrc\e[24m ] [ -a \e[4mfile\e[24m ] [ -c \e[4maddress\e[24m ] [ -i \e[4mfilename\e[24m ] [
- -s \e[4msubject\e[24m ] \e[4maddress\e[24m [ \e[4maddress\e[24m ... ]
+ For completeness, too, the opposite of ifdef is provided: ifndef which
+ only executes the command if the test fails. For example, the
+ following two examples are equivalent:
- Mutt also supports a ``batch'' mode to send prepared messages. Simply
- redirect input from the file you wish to send. For example,
+ifdef feature_ncurses 'source ~/.mutt-ng/setup-ncurses'
+ifndef feature_ncurses 'source ~/.mutt-ng/setup-slang'
- mutt -s "data set for run #2" professor@bigschool.edu < ~/run2.dat
+ ...and...
- This command will send a message to ``professor@bigschool.edu'' with a
- subject of ``data set for run #2''. In the body of the message will
- be the contents of the file ``~/run2.dat''.
+ifdef feature_slang 'source ~/.mutt-ng/setup-slang'
+ifndef feature_slang 'source ~/.mutt-ng/setup-ncurses'
- \e[1m6.2. Configuration Commands\e[0m
+32. Obsolete Variables
- The following are the commands understood by mutt.
+ In the process of ensuring and creating more consistency, many
+ variables have been renamed and some of the old names were already
+ removed. Please see s\bse\bec\bct\bt-\b-o\bob\bbs\bso\bol\ble\bet\bte\be for a complete list.

+1. Regular Expressions
- · ``hdr_order'' \e[4mheader\e[24m [ \e[4mheader\e[24m ... ]
+ All string patterns in Mutt-ng including those in more complex
+ p\bpa\bat\btt\bte\ber\brn\bns\bs must be specified using regular expressions (regexp) in the
+ ``POSIX extended'' syntax (which is more or less the syntax used by
+ egrep and GNU awk). For your convenience, we have included below a
+ brief description of this syntax.
- · ``unhdr_order'' \e[4mheader\e[24m [ \e[4mheader\e[24m ... ]
+ The search is case sensitive if the pattern contains at least one
+ upper case letter, and case insensitive otherwise. Note that ``\''
+ must be quoted if used for a regular expression in an initialization
+ command: ``\\''.
- · ``iconv-hook'' \e[4mcharset\e[24m \e[4mlocal-charset\e[0m
+ A regular expression is a pattern that describes a set of strings.
+ Regular expressions are constructed analogously to arithmetic
+ expressions, by using various operators to combine smaller
+ expressions.
- · ``ignore'' \e[4mpattern\e[24m [ \e[4mpattern\e[24m ... ]
+ Note that the regular expression can be enclosed/delimited by either "
+ or ' which is useful if the regular expression includes a white-space
+ character. See m\bmu\but\btt\btr\brc\bc-\b-s\bsy\byn\bnt\bta\bax\bx for more information on " and ' delimiter
+ processing. To match a literal " or ' you must preface it with \
+ (backslash).
- · ``unignore'' \e[4mpattern\e[24m [ \e[4mpattern\e[24m ... ]
+ The fundamental building blocks are the regular expressions that match
+ a single character. Most characters, including all letters and digits,
+ are regular expressions that match themselves. Any metacharacter with
+ special meaning may be quoted by preceding it with a backslash.
- · ``lists'' \e[4mregexp\e[24m [ \e[4mregexp\e[24m ... ]
+ The period ``.'' matches any single character. The caret ``^'' andthe
+ dollar sign ``$'' are metacharacters that respectively match the empty
+ string at the beginning and end of a line.
- · ``unlists'' \e[4mregexp\e[24m [ \e[4mregexp\e[24m ... ]
+ A list of characters enclosed by ``]'' and ``]'' matches any single
+ character in that list; if the first character of the list is a caret
+ ``^'' then it matches any character _\bn_\bo_\bt in the list. For example, the
+ regular expression _\b]_\b0_\b1_\b2_\b3_\b4_\b5_\b6_\b7_\b8_\b9_\b] matches any single digit. A range of
+ ASCII characters may be specified by giving the first and last
+ characters, separated by a hyphen ``-''. Most metacharacters lose
+ their special meaning inside lists. To include a literal ``]'' place
+ it first in the list. Similarly, to include a literal ``^'' place it
+ anywhere but first. Finally, to include a literal hyphen ``-'' place
+ it last.
- · ``macro'' \e[4mmenu\e[24m \e[4mkey\e[24m \e[4msequence\e[24m [ \e[4mdescription\e[24m ]
+ Certain named classes of characters are predefined. Character classes
+ consist of ``[:'', a keyword denoting the class, and ``:]''. The
+ following classes are defined by the POSIX standard:
- · ``mailboxes'' \e[4mfilename\e[24m [ \e[4mfilename\e[24m ... ]
+ [:alnum:]
+ Alphanumeric characters.
- · ``mbox-hook'' \e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mmailbox\e[0m
+ [:alpha:]
+ Alphabetic characters.
- · ``message-hook'' \e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mcommand\e[0m
+ [:blank:]
+ Space or tab characters.
- · ``mime_lookup'' \e[4mmimetype\e[24m [ \e[4mmimetype\e[24m ... ]
+ [:cntrl:]
+ Control characters.
- · ``unmime_lookup'' \e[4mmimetype\e[24m [ \e[4mmimetype\e[24m ... ]
+ [:digit:]
+ Numeric characters.
- · ``mono'' \e[4mobject\e[24m \e[4mattribute\e[24m [ \e[4mregexp\e[24m ]
+ [:graph:]
+ Characters that are both printable and visible. (A space is
+ printable, but not visible, while an ``a'' is both.)
- · ``unmono'' \e[4mindex\e[24m \e[4mpattern\e[24m [ \e[4mpattern\e[24m ... ]
+ [:lower:]
+ Lower-case alphabetic characters.
+
+ [:print:]
+ Printable characters (characters that are not control
+ characters.)
- · ``my_hdr'' \e[4mstring\e[0m
+ [:punct:]
+ Punctuation characters (characters that are not letter, digits,
+ control characters, or space characters).
- · ``unmy_hdr'' \e[4mfield\e[24m [ \e[4mfield\e[24m ... ]
+ [:space:]
+ Space characters (such as space, tab and formfeed, to name a
+ few).
- · ``crypt-hook'' \e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mkey-id\e[0m
+ [:upper:]
+ Upper-case alphabetic characters.
- · ``push'' \e[4mstring\e[0m
+ [:xdigit:]
+ Characters that are hexadecimal digits.
- · ``reset'' \e[4mvariable\e[24m [\e[4mvariable\e[24m ... ]
+ A character class is only valid in a regular expression inside the
+ brackets of a character list. Note that the brackets in these class
+ names are part of the symbolic names, and must be included in addition
+ to the brackets delimiting the bracket list. For example, _\b[_\b[_\b:_\bd_\bi_\bg_\bi_\bt_\b:_\b]_\b]
+ is equivalent to _\b[_\b0_\b-_\b9_\b].
- · ``save-hook'' \e[4mregexp\e[24m \e[4mfilename\e[0m
+ Two additional special sequences can appear in character lists. These
+ apply to non-ASCII character sets, which can have single symbols
+ (calledcollating elements) that are represented with more than one
+ character, as well as several characters that are equivalent for
+ collating or sorting purposes:
- · ``score'' \e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mvalue\e[0m
+ Collating Symbols
+ A collating symbol is a multi-character collating element
+ enclosed in ``[.'' and ``.]''. For example, if ``ch'' is a
+ collating element, then _\b[_\b[_\b._\bc_\bh_\b._\b]_\b] is a regexp that matches this
+ collating element, while _\b[_\bc_\bh_\b] is a regexp that matches either
+ ``c'' or ``h''.
- · ``unscore'' \e[4mpattern\e[24m [ \e[4mpattern\e[24m ... ]
+ Equivalence Classes
+ An equivalence class is a locale-specific name for a list of
+ characters that are equivalent. The name is enclosed in ``[=''
+ and ``=]''. For example, the name ``e'' might be used to
+ represent all of ``è'' ``é'' and ``e''. In this case, _\b[_\b[_\b=_\be_\b=_\b]_\b]
+ is a regexp that matches any of ``è'', ``é'' and ``e''.
- · ``send-hook'' \e[4mregexp\e[24m \e[4mcommand\e[0m
+ A regular expression matching a single character may be followed by
+ one of several repetition operators:
- · ``reply-hook'' \e[4mregexp\e[24m \e[4mcommand\e[0m
+ ?
+ The preceding item is optional and matched at most once.
- · ``set'' [no|inv]\e[4mvariable\e[24m[=\e[4mvalue\e[24m] [ \e[4mvariable\e[24m ... ]
+ *
+ The preceding item will be matched zero or more times.
- · ``unset'' \e[4mvariable\e[24m [\e[4mvariable\e[24m ... ]
+ +
+ The preceding item will be matched one or more times.
- · ``source'' \e[4mfilename\e[0m
+ {n}
+ The preceding item is matched exactly _\bn times.
- · ``spam'' \e[4mpattern\e[24m \e[4mformat\e[0m
+ {n,}
+ The preceding item is matched _\bn or more times.
- · ``nospam'' \e[4mpattern\e[0m
+ {,m}
+ The preceding item is matched at most _\bm times.
- · ``subscribe'' \e[4mregexp\e[24m [ \e[4mregexp\e[24m ... ]
+ {n,m}
+ The preceding item is matched at least _\bn times, but no more
+ than _\bm times.
- · ``unsubscribe'' \e[4mregexp\e[24m [ \e[4mregexp\e[24m ... ]
+ Two regular expressions may be concatenated; the resulting regular
+ expression matches any string formed by concatenating two substrings
+ that respectively match the concatenated subexpressions.
- · ``toggle'' \e[4mvariable\e[24m [\e[4mvariable\e[24m ... ]
+ Two regular expressions may be joined by the infix operator ``|''; the
+ resulting regular expression matches any string matching either
+ subexpression.
- · ``unhook'' \e[4mhook-type\e[0m
+ Repetition takes precedence over concatenation, which in turn takes
+ precedence over alternation. A whole subexpression may be enclosed in
+ parentheses to override these precedence rules.
- \e[1m6.3. Configuration variables\e[0m
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: If you compile Mutt-ng with the GNU _\br_\bx package, the following
+ operators may also be used in regular expressions:
- \e[1m6.3.1. abort_nosubject\e[0m
+ \\y
+ Matches the empty string at either the beginning or the end of
+ a word.
- Type: quadoption
- Default: ask-yes
+ \\B
+ Matches the empty string within a word.
- If set to \e[4myes\e[24m, when composing messages and no subject is given at the
- subject prompt, composition will be aborted. If set to \e[4mno\e[24m, composing
- messages with no subject given at the subject prompt will never be
- aborted.
+ \\<
+ Matches the empty string at the beginning of a word.
- \e[1m6.3.2. abort_unmodified\e[0m
+ \\>
+ Matches the empty string at the end of a word.
- Type: quadoption
- Default: yes
+ \\w
+ Matches any word-constituent character (letter, digit, or
+ underscore).
- If set to \e[4myes\e[24m, composition will automatically abort after editing the
- message body if no changes are made to the file (this check only
- happens after the \e[4mfirst\e[24m edit of the file). When set to \e[4mno\e[24m,
- composition will never be aborted.
+ \\W
+ Matches any character that is not word-constituent.
- \e[1m6.3.3. alias_file\e[0m
+ \\`
+ Matches the empty string at the beginning of a buffer (string).
- Type: path
- Default: "~/.muttrc"
+ \\'
+ Matches the empty string at the end of a buffer.
- The default file in which to save aliases created by the ````create-
- alias'''' function.
+ Please note however that these operators are not defined by POSIX, so
+ they may or may not be available in stock libraries on various
+ systems.
- \e[1mNote: \e[22mMutt will not automatically source this file; you must
- explicitly use the ````source'''' command for it to be executed.
+2. Patterns
- \e[1m6.3.4. alias_format\e[0m
+ Mutt-ng's pattern language provides a simple yet effective way to set
+ up rules to match messages, e.g. for operations like tagging and
+ scoring. A pattern consists of one or more sub-pattern, which can be
+ logically grouped, ORed, and negated. For a complete listing of these
+ patterns, please refer to table p\bpa\bat\btt\bte\ber\brn\bns\bs in the Reference chapter.
- Type: string
- Default: "%4n %2f %t %-10a %r"
+ It must be noted that in this table, EXPR is a regular expression. For
+ ranges, the forms <[MAX], >>[MIN], [MIN]- and -[MAX] are also
+ possible.
- Specifies the format of the data displayed for the `alias' menu. The
- following printf(3)-style sequences are available:
+2.1. Complex Patterns
- \e[1m%a \e[22malias name
+ It is possible to combine several sub-patterns to a more complex
+ pattern. The most simple possibility is to logically AND several
+ patterns by stringing them together:
- \e[1m%f \e[22mflags - currently, a "d" for an alias marked for deletion
+~s 'SPAM' ~U
- \e[1m%n \e[22mindex number
+ The pattern above matches all messages that contain ``SPAM'' in the
+ subject and are unread.
- \e[1m%r \e[22maddress which alias expands to
+ To logical OR patterns, simply use the | operator. This one especially
+ useful when using local groups:
- \e[1m%t \e[22mcharacter which indicates if the alias is tagged for inclusion
+~f ("nion@muttng\.org"|"ak@muttng\.org"|"pdmef@muttng\.org")
+(~b mutt-ng|~s Mutt-ng)
+!~x '@synflood\.at'
- \e[1m6.3.5. allow_8bit\e[0m
+ The first pattern matches all messages that were sent by one of the
+ mutt-ng maintainers, while the seconds pattern matches all messages
+ that contain ``mutt-ng'' in the message body or ``Mutt-ng'' in the
+ subject. The third pattern matches all messages that do not contain
+ ``@synflood\.at'' in the References: header, i.e. messages that are
+ not an (indirect) reply to one of my messages. A pattern can be
+ logicall negated using the ! operator.
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+2.2. Patterns and Dates
- Controls whether 8-bit data is converted to 7-bit using either Quoted-
- Printable or Base64 encoding when sending mail.
+ When using dates in patterns, the dates must be specified in a special
+ format, i.e. DD/MM/YYYY. If you don't specify month or year, they
+ default to the current month or year. When using date ranges, and you
+ specify only the minimum or the maximum, the specified date will be
+ excluded, e.g. 01/06/2005- matches against all messages _\ba_\bf_\bt_\be_\br Juni
+ 1st, 2005.
- \e[1m6.3.6. allow_ansi\e[0m
+ It is also possible to use so-called ``error margins'' when specifying
+ date ranges. You simply specify a date, and then the error margin.
+ This margin needs to contain the information whether it goes ``forth''
+ or ``back'' in time, by using + and -. Then follows a number and a
+ unit, i.e. y for years, m for months, w for weeks and d for days. If
+ you use the special * sign, it means that the error margin goes to
+ both``directions'' in time.
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+~d 01/01/2005+1y
+~d 18/10/2004-2w
+~d 28/12/2004*1d
- Controls whether ANSI color codes in messages (and color tags in rich
- text messages) are to be interpreted. Messages containing these codes
- are rare, but if this option is set, their text will be colored
- accordingly. Note that this may override your color choices, and even
- present a security problem, since a message could include a line like
- "[-- PGP output follows ..." and give it the same color as your
- attachment color.
+ The first pattern matches all dates between January 1st, 2005 and
+ January 1st 2006. The second pattern matches all dates between October
+ 18th, 2004 and October 4th 2004 (2 weeks before 18/10/2004), while the
+ third pattern matches all dates 1 day around December 28th, 2004 (i.e.
+ Dec 27th, 28th and 29th).
- \e[1m6.3.7. arrow_cursor\e[0m
+ Relative dates are also very important, as they make it possible to
+ specify date ranges between a fixed number of units and the current
+ date. How this works can be seen in the following example:
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+~d >2w # messages older than two weeks
+~d <3d # messages newer than 3 days
+~d =1m # messages that are exactly one month old
- When set, an arrow (``->'') will be used to indicate the current entry
- in menus instead of highlighting the whole line. On slow network or
- modem links this will make response faster because there is less that
- has to be redrawn on the screen when moving to the next or previous
- entries in the menu.
+3. Format Strings
- \e[1m6.3.8. ascii_chars\e[0m
+3.1. Introduction
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ The so called _\bF_\bo_\br_\bm_\ba_\bt_\b _\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 messages.
- If set, Mutt will use plain ASCII characters when displaying thread
- and attachment trees, instead of the default \e[4mACS\e[24m characters.
+ Basically, they work as this: for different menus and bars, there's a
+ variable specifying the layout. For every item available, there is a
+ so called _\be_\bx_\bp_\ba_\bn_\bd_\bo.
- \e[1m6.3.9. askbcc\e[0m
+ For example, when running mutt-ng on different machines or different
+ versions for testing purposes, it may be interesting to have the
+ following information always printed on screen when one is in the
+ index:
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ * the current hostname
+ * the current mutt-ng version number
- If set, Mutt will prompt you for blind-carbon-copy (Bcc) recipients
- before editing an outgoing message.
+ The setting for the status bar of the index is controlled via the
+ $\b$s\bst\bta\bat\btu\bus\bs_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt 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:
- \e[1m6.3.10. askcc\e[0m
+set status_format = "%v on %h: ..."
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ mutt-ng will replace the sequence %v with the version string and %h
+ with the host's name. When you are, for example, running mutt-ng
+ version 1.5.9i on host mailhost, you'll see the following when you're
+ in the index:
- If set, Mutt will prompt you for carbon-copy (Cc) recipients before
- editing the body of an outgoing message.
+Mutt-ng 1.5.9i on mailhost: ...
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.1\b11\b1.\b. a\bas\bsk\bk_\b_f\bfo\bol\bll\blo\bow\bw_\b_u\bup\bp
+ In the index, there're more useful information one could want to see:
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ * which mailbox is open
+ * how man new, flagged or postponed messages
+ * ...
- If set, Mutt will prompt you for follow-up groups before editing the
- body of an outgoing message.
+ To include the mailbox' name is as easy as:
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.1\b12\b2.\b. a\bas\bsk\bk_\b_x\bx_\b_c\bco\bom\bmm\bme\ben\bnt\bt_\b_t\bto\bo
+set status_format = "%v on %h: %B: ...
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ When the currently opened mailbox is Inbox, this will be expanded to:
- If set, Mutt will prompt you for x-comment-to field before editing the
- body of an outgoing message.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.1\b13\b3.\b. a\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt
+Mutt-ng 1.5.9i on mailhost: Inbox: ...
- Type: string
- Default: "%u%D%I %t%4n %T%.40d%> [%.7m/%.10M, %.6e%?C?, %C?, %s] "
+ 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 not be desired to print just that there aren't
+ any but instead only print something if there are any.
- This variable describes the format of the `attachment' menu. The
- following printf-style sequences are understood:
+3.2. Conditional Expansion
- %\b%C\bC charset
+ To only print the number of messages if there are new messages in the
+ current mailbox, further extend $status_format to:
- %\b%c\bc reqiures charset conversion (n or c)
+set status_format = "%v on %h: %B %?n?%n new? ...
- %\b%D\bD deleted flag
+ This feature is called _\bn_\bo_\bn_\bz_\be_\br_\bo_\b-_\bp_\br_\bi_\bn_\bt_\bi_\bn_\bg and works as this: some
+ expandos may be optionally printed nonzero, i.e. a portion of the
+ format string is only evaluated if the value of the expando is
+ different from zero. The basic syntax is:
- %\b%d\bd description
+%?<item>?<string if nonzero>?
- %\b%e\be MIME content-transfer-encoding
+ which tells mutt-ng to only look at <string if nonzero> if the value
+ of the %<item%gt; expando is different from zero. In our example, we
+ used n as the expando to check for and %n new as the optional nonzero
+ string.
- %\b%f\bf filename
+ But this is not all: this feature only offers one alternative: ``print
+ something if not zero.'' Mutt-ng does, as you might guess, also
+ provide a logically complete version: ``if zero, print something and
+ else print something else.'' This is achieved by the following syntax
+ for those expandos which may be printed nonzero:
- %\b%I\bI disposition (I=inline, A=attachment)
+%?<item>?<string if nonzero>&<string if zero>?
- %\b%m\bm major MIME type
+ Using this we can make mutt-ng to do the following:
- %\b%M\bM MIME subtype
+ * make it print ``_\bn new messages'' whereby _\bn is the count but only
+ if there new ones
+ * and make it print ``no new messages'' if there aren't any
- %\b%n\bn attachment number
+ The corresponding configuration is:
- %\b%s\bs size
+set status_format = "%v on %h: %B: %?n?%n new messages&no new messages? ...
- %\b%t\bt tagged flag
+ This doubles the use of the ``new messages'' string because it'll get
+ always printed. Thus, it can be shortened to:
- %\b%T\bT graphic tree characters
+set status_format = "%v on %h: %B: %?n?%n&no? new messages ...
- %\b%u\bu unlink (=to delete) flag
+ 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.
- %\b%>\b>X\bX
- right justify the rest of the string and pad with character "X"
+3.3. Modifications and Padding
- %\b%|\b|X\bX
- pad to the end of the line with character "X"
+ Besides the information given so far, there're even more features of
+ format strings:
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.1\b14\b4.\b. a\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh_\b_s\bse\bep\bp
+ * When specifying %_<item> instead of just %<item>, mutt-ng will
+ convert all characters in the expansion of <item> to lowercase.
+ * When specifying %:<item> instead of just %<item>, mutt-ng will
+ convert all dots in the expansion of <item> to underscores (_).
- Type: string
- Default: "\n"
+ Also, there's a feature called _\bP_\ba_\bd_\bd_\bi_\bn_\bg supplied by the following two
+ expandos: %|X and %>X .
- The separator to add between attachments when operating (saving,
- printing, piping, etc) on a list of tagged attachments.
+ %|X
+ When this occurs, mutt-ng will fill the rest of the line with
+ the character X. In our example, filling the rest of the line
+ with dashes is done by setting:
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.1\b15\b5.\b. a\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh_\b_s\bsp\bpl\bli\bit\bt
+set status_format = "%v on %h: %B: %?n?%n&no? new messages %|-"
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ %>X
+ Since the previous expando stops at the end of line, there must
+ be 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 version string and hostname of our example on the left
+ but on the right and fill the gap with spaces, one might use
+ (note the space after %>):
- If this variable is unset, when operating (saving, printing, piping,
- etc) on a list of tagged attachments, Mutt will concatenate the
- attachments and will operate on them as a single attachment. The
- ````$attach_sep'''' separator is added after each attachment. When
- set, Mutt will operate on the attachments one by one.
+set status_format = "%B: %?n?%n&no? new messages %> (%v on %h)"
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.1\b16\b6.\b. a\bat\btt\btr\bri\bib\bbu\but\bti\bio\bon\bn
+4. Using Tags
- Type: string
- Default: "On %d, %n wrote:"
+ Sometimes it is desirable to perform an operation on a group of
+ messages all at once rather than one at a time. An example might be to
+ save messages to a mailing list to a separate folder, or to delete all
+ messages with a given subject. 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 messages by hand using the
+ ``tag-message'' function, which is bound to ``t'' by default. See
+ p\bpa\bat\btt\bte\ber\brn\bns\bs for Mutt-ng's pattern matching syntax.
+
+ Once you have tagged the desired messages, you can use the
+ ``tag-prefix'' operator, which is the ``;'' (semicolon) key by
+ default. When the ``tag-prefix'' operator is used, the _\bn_\be_\bx_\bt operation
+ will be applied to all tagged messages if that operation can be used
+ in that manner. If the $\b$a\bau\but\bto\bo_\b_t\bta\bag\bg variable is set, the next operation
+ applies to the tagged messages automatically, without requiring the
+ ``tag-prefix''.
+
+ In m\bma\bac\bcr\bro\bo or p\bpu\bus\bsh\bh commands, you can use the ``tag-prefix-cond''
+ operator. If there are no tagged messages, 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 this operator the
+ rest of the macro will be executed asnormal.
+
+5. Using Hooks
+
+ A _\bh_\bo_\bo_\bk is a concept borrowed from the EMACS editor which allows you to
+ execute arbitrary commands before performing some operation. For
+ example, you may wish to tailor your configuration based upon which
+ mailbox you are reading, or to whom you are sending mail. In the
+ Mutt-ng world, a _\bh_\bo_\bo_\bk consists of a r\bre\beg\bge\bex\bxp\bp or p\bpa\bat\btt\bte\ber\brn\bns\bs along with a
+ configuration option/command. See
+ * f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+ * s\bse\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+ * m\bme\bes\bss\bsa\bag\bge\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+ * s\bsa\bav\bve\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+ * m\bmb\bbo\box\bx-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+ * f\bfc\bcc\bc-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+ * f\bfc\bcc\bc-\b-s\bsa\bav\bve\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+
+ for specific details on each type of _\bh_\bo_\bo_\bk available.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: if a hook changes configuration settings, these changes remain
+ effective until the end of the current mutt session. As this is
+ generally not desired, a default hook needs to be added before all
+ other hooks to restore configuration defaults. Here is an example with
+ s\bse\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk and the my_hdr directive:
+
+send-hook . 'unmy_hdr From:'
+send-hook '~C ^b@b\.b$' my-hdr from: c@c.c
+
+5.1. Message Matching in Hooks
+
+ Hooks that act upon messages ( \b s\bse\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk, s\bsa\bav\bve\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk, f\bfc\bcc\bc-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk,
+ m\bme\bes\bss\bsa\bag\bge\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk )are evaluated in a slightly different manner. For the
+ other types of hooks, a r\bre\beg\bge\bex\bxp\bp is sufficient. But in dealing with
+ messages a finer grain of control is needed for matching since for
+ different purposes you want to match different criteria.
+
+ Mutt-ng allows the use of the p\bpa\bat\btt\bte\ber\brn\bns\bs language for matching messages
+ in hook commands. This works in exactly the same way as it would when
+ _\bl_\bi_\bm_\bi_\bt_\bi_\bn_\bg or_\bs_\be_\ba_\br_\bc_\bh_\bi_\bn_\bg the mailbox, except that you are restricted to
+ those operators which match information mutt extracts from the header
+ of the message (i.e. from, to, cc, date, subject, etc.).
+
+ For example, if you wanted to set your return address based upon
+ sending mail to a specific address, you could do something like:
+send-hook '~t ^me@cs\.hmc\.edu$' 'my-hdr From: Mutt-ng User <user@host>'
+
+ which would execute the given command when sending mail to
+ _\bm_\be_\b@_\bc_\bs_\b._\bh_\bm_\bc_\b._\be_\bd_\bu.
+
+ However, it is not required that you write the pattern to match using
+ the full searching language. You can still specify a simple _\br_\be_\bg_\bu_\bl_\ba_\br
+ _\be_\bx_\bp_\br_\be_\bs_\bs_\bi_\bo_\bn like the other hooks, in which case Mutt-ng will translate
+ your pattern into the full language, using the translation specified
+ by the d\bde\bef\bfa\bau\bul\blt\bt-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk variable. The pattern is translated at the time
+ the hook is declared, so the value of d\bde\bef\bfa\bau\bul\blt\bt-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk that is in effect
+ at that time will be used.
+
+6. Using the sidebar
+
+ The sidebar, a feature specific to Mutt-ng, allows you to use a
+ mailbox listing which looks very similar to the ones you probably know
+ from GUI mail clients. The sidebar lists all specified mailboxes,
+ shows the number in each and highlights the ones with new email Use
+ the following configuration commands:
+set sidebar_visible="yes"
+set sidebar_width=25
+
+ If you want to specify the mailboxes you can do so with:
+set mbox='=INBOX'
+mailboxes INBOX \
+MBOX1 \
+MBOX2 \
+...
+
+ You can also specify the colors for mailboxes with new mails by using:
+color sidebar_new red black
+color sidebar white black
+
+ Reasonable key bindings look e.g. like this:
+bind index \Cp sidebar-prev
+bind index \Cn sidebar-next
+bind index \Cb sidebar-open
+bind pager \Cp sidebar-prev
+bind pager \Cn sidebar-next
+bind pager \Cb sidebar-open
+
+macro index B ':toggle sidebar_visible^M'
+macro pager B ':toggle sidebar_visible^M'
+
+ You can then go up and down by pressing Ctrl-P and Ctrl-N, and switch
+ on and off the sidebar simply by pressing 'B'.
+
+7. External Address Queries
+
+ Mutt-ng supports connecting to external directory databases such as
+ LDAP, ph/qi, bbdb, or NIS through a wrapper script which connects to
+ mutt using a simple interface. Using the $\b$q\bqu\bue\ber\bry\by_\b_c\bco\bom\bmm\bma\ban\bnd\bd variable, you
+ specify the wrapper command to use. For example:
+
+set query_command = "mutt_ldap_query.pl '%s'"
+
+ The wrapper script should accept the query on the command-line. It
+ should return a one line message, then each matching response on a
+ single line, each line containing a tab separated address then name
+ thensome other optional information. On error, or if there are no
+ matching addresses, return a non-zero exit code and a one line error
+ message.
+
+ An example multiple response output:
+Searching database ... 20 entries ... 3 matching:
+me@cs.hmc.edu Michael Elkins mutt dude
+blong@fiction.net Brandon Long mutt and more
+roessler@guug.de Thomas Roessler mutt pgp
+
+ There are two mechanisms for accessing the query function of mutt. One
+ is to do a query from the index menu using the query function
+ (default: Q). This will prompt for a query, then bring up the query
+ menu which will list the matching responses. From the query menu, you
+ can select addresses to create aliases, or to mail. You can tag
+ multiple addressesto mail, start a new query, or have a new query
+ appended to the current responses.
+
+ The other mechanism for accessing the query function is for address
+ completion, similar to the alias completion. In any prompt for address
+ entry, you can use the complete-query function (default: ^T) to run a
+ query based on the current address you have typed. Like aliases, mutt
+ will look for what you have typed back to the last space or comma. If
+ there is a single response for that query, mutt will expand the
+ address in place. If there are multiple responses, mutt will activate
+ the querymenu. At the query menu, you can select one or more addresses
+ to be added to the prompt.
+
+8. Mailbox Formats
+
+ Mutt-ng supports reading and writing of four different mailbox
+ formats: mbox, MMDF, MH and Maildir. The mailbox type is autodetected,
+ so there is no need to use a flag for different mailbox types. When
+ creating newmailboxes, Mutt-ng uses the default specified with the
+ $\b$m\bmb\bbo\box\bx_\b_t\bty\byp\bpe\be variable.
+
+ _\bm_\bb_\bo_\bx. This is the most widely used mailbox format for UNIX. All
+ messages are stored in a single file. Each message has a line of the
+ form:
+
+From me@cs.hmc.edu Fri, 11 Apr 1997 11:44:56 PST
+
+ to denote the start of a new message (this is often referred to as the
+ ``From_'' line).
+
+ _\bM_\bM_\bD_\bF. This is a variant of the _\bm_\bb_\bo_\bx format. Each message is surrounded
+ by lines containing ``^A^A^A^A'' (four control-A's).
+
+ _\bM_\bH. A radical departure from _\bm_\bb_\bo_\bx and _\bM_\bM_\bD_\bF, a mailbox consists of a
+ directory and each message is stored in a separate file. The filename
+ indicates the message number (however, this is may not correspond to
+ the message number Mutt-ng displays). Deleted messages arerenamed with
+ a comma (,) prepended to the filename. _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: Mutt detects this type of
+ mailbox by looking for either .mh_sequences or .xmhcache (needed to
+ distinguish normal directories from MH mailboxes).
+
+ _\bM_\ba_\bi_\bl_\bd_\bi_\br. The newest of the mailbox formats, used by the Qmail MTA (a
+ replacement for sendmail). Similar to _\bM_\bH, except that it adds three
+ subdirectories of the mailbox: _\bt_\bm_\bp, _\bn_\be_\bw and _\bc_\bu_\br .Filenames for the
+ messages are chosen in such a way they are unique, even when
+ twoprograms are writing the mailbox over NFS, which means that no file
+ locking is needed.
+
+9. Mailbox Shortcuts
+
+ There are a number of built in shortcuts which refer to specific
+ mailboxes. These shortcuts can be used anywhere you are prompted for a
+ file or mailbox path.
+
+ * ! -- refers to your $\b$s\bsp\bpo\boo\bol\blf\bfi\bil\ble\be (incoming) mailbox
+ * > -- refers to your $\b$m\bmb\bbo\box\bx file
+ * < -- refers to your $\b$r\bre\bec\bco\bor\brd\bd file
+ * ^ -- refers to the current mailbox
+ * - or !! -- refers to the file you've last visited
+ * ~ -- refers to your home directory
+ * = or + -- refers to your $\b$f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br directory
+ * @_\ba_\bl_\bi_\ba_\bs -- refers to the s\bsa\bav\bve\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk as determined by the address of
+ the alias
+
+10. Handling Mailing Lists
+
+ Mutt-ng has a few configuration options that make dealing with large
+ amounts of mail easier. The first thing you must do is to let Mutt
+ know what addresses you consider to be mailing lists (technically this
+ does not have to be a mailing list, but that is what it is most often
+ used for), and what lists you are subscribed to. This is accomplished
+ through the use of the l\bli\bis\bst\bts\bs commands in your muttrc.
+
+ Now that Mutt-ng knows what your mailing lists are, it can do several
+ things, the first of which is the ability to show the name of a list
+ through which you received a message (i.e., of a subscribed list) in
+ the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx menu display. This is useful to distinguish between personal
+ and list mail in the same mailbox. In the $\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt variable, the
+ escape ``%L'' will return the string ``To <list>'' when ``list''
+ appears in the ``To'' field, and ``Cc <list>'' when it appears in the
+ ``Cc'' field (otherwise it returns the name of the author).
+
+ Often times the ``To'' and ``Cc'' fields in mailing list messages tend
+ to get quite large. Most people do not bother to remove the author of
+ the message they are reply to from the list, resulting in two or more
+ copies being sent to that person. The ``list-reply'' function, which
+ by default is bound to ``L'' in the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx menu and _\bp_\ba_\bg_\be_\br, helps reduce
+ the clutter by only replying to the known mailing list addresses
+ instead of all recipients (except as specified by Mail-Followup-To,
+ see below).
+
+ Mutt-ng also supports the Mail-Followup-To header. When you send a
+ message to a list of recipients which includes one or several
+ subscribed mailing lists, and if the $\b$f\bfo\bol\bll\blo\bow\bwu\bup\bp_\b_t\bto\bo option is set, mutt
+ will generate a Mail-Followup-To header which contains all the
+ recipients to whom you send this message, but not your address. This
+ indicates that group-replies or list-replies (also known as
+ ``followups'') to this message should only be sent to the original
+ recipients of the message, and not separately to you - you'll receive
+ your copy through one of the mailing lists you are subscribed to.
+
+ Conversely, when group-replying or list-replying to a message which
+ has a Mail-Followup-To header, mutt will respect this header if the
+ $\b$h\bho\bon\bno\bor\br_\b_f\bfo\bol\bll\blo\bow\bwu\bup\bp_\b_t\bto\bo configuration variable is set. Using list-reply
+ will in this case also make sure that the reply goes to the mailing
+ list, even if it's not specified in the list of recipients in the
+ Mail-Followup-To.
+
+ Note that, when header editing is enabled, you can create a
+ Mail-Followup-To header manually. Mutt-ng will only auto-generate this
+ header if it doesn't exist when you send the message.
+
+ The other method some mailing list admins use is to generate a
+ ``Reply-To'' field which points back to the mailing list address
+ rather than the author of the message. This can create problems when
+ trying to reply directly to the author in private, since most mail
+ clients will automatically reply to the address given in the
+ ``Reply-To'' field. Mutt-ng uses the $\b$r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\by_\b_t\bto\bo variable to help decide
+ which address to use. If set to _\ba_\bs_\bk_\b-_\by_\be_\bs or _\ba_\bs_\bk_\b-_\bn_\bo, you will be
+ prompted as to whether or not you would like to use the address given
+ inthe ``Reply-To'' field, or reply directly to the address given in
+ the ``From'' field. When set to _\by_\be_\bs, the ``Reply-To'' field will be
+ used when present.
+
+ The ``X-Label:'' header field can be used to further identify mailing
+ lists or list subject matter (or just to annotate messages
+ individually). The $\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt variable's ``%y'' and ``%Y'' escapes
+ can be used to expand ``X-Label:'' fields in the index, and Mutt-ng's
+ pattern-matcher can match regular expressions to ``X-Label:'' fields
+ with the ``~y'' selector. ``X-Label:'' is not a standard message
+ header field, but it can easily be inserted by procmailand other mail
+ filtering agents.
+
+ Lastly, Mutt-ng has the ability to s\bso\bor\brt\bt the mailbox into t\bth\bhr\bre\bea\bad\bds\bs. A
+ thread is a group of messages which all relate to the same subject.
+ This is usually organized into a tree-like structure where a message
+ and all of its replies are represented graphically. If you've ever
+ used a threaded news client, this is the same concept. It makes
+ dealingwith large volume mailing lists easier because you can easily
+ delete uninteresting threads and quickly find topics of value.
+
+11. Editing threads
+
+ Mutt-ng has the ability to dynamically restructure threads that are
+ broken either by misconfigured software or bad behavior from some
+ correspondents. This allows to clean your mailboxes formats) from
+ these annoyances which make it hard to follow a discussion.
+
+11.1. Linking threads
+
+ Some mailers tend to "forget" to correctly set the "In-Reply-To:" and
+ "References:" headers when replying to a message. This results in
+ broken discussions because Mutt-ng has not enough information to guess
+ the correct threading. You can fix this by tagging the reply, then
+ moving to the parent message and using the ``link-threads'' function
+ (bound to & by default). The reply will then be connected to this
+ "parent" message.
+
+ You can also connect multiple children at once, tagging them and using
+ the tag-prefix command (';') or the auto_tag option.
+
+11.2. Breaking threads
+
+ On mailing lists, some people are in the bad habit of starting a new
+ discussion by hitting "reply" to any message from the list and
+ changing the subject to a totally unrelated one. You can fix such
+ threads by using the ``break-thread'' function (boundby default to #),
+ which will turn the subthread starting from the current message into a
+ whole different thread.
+
+12. Delivery Status Notification (DSN) Support
+
+ R\bRf\bfC\bC \b 1\b18\b89\b94\b4 defines a set of MIME content types for relaying information
+ about the status of electronic mail messages. These can be thought of
+ as ``return receipts.''
+
+ Users can make use of it in one of the following two ways:
+
+ * Berkeley sendmail 8.8.x currently has some command line options in
+ which the mail client can make requests as to what type of status
+ messages should be returned.
+ * The SMTP support via libESMTP supports it, too.
+
+ To support this, there are two variables:
+
+ * $\b$d\bds\bsn\bn_\b_n\bno\bot\bti\bif\bfy\by is used to request receipts for different results
+ (such as failed message,message delivered, etc.).
+ * $\b$d\bds\bsn\bn_\b_r\bre\bet\btu\bur\brn\bn requests how much of your message should be returned
+ with the receipt (headers or full message).
+
+ Please see the reference chapter for possible values.
+
+13. POP3 Support (OPTIONAL)
+
+ If Mutt-ng was compiled with POP3 support (by running the _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf_\bi_\bg_\bu_\br_\be
+ script with the _\b-_\b-_\be_\bn_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b-_\bp_\bo_\bp flag), it has the ability to work with
+ mailboxes located on a remote POP3 server and fetch mail for local
+ browsing.
+
+ You can access the remote POP3 mailbox by selecting the folder
+ pop://popserver/.
+
+ You can select an alternative port by specifying it with the server,
+ i.e.: pop://popserver:port/.
+
+ You can also specify different username for each folder, i.e.:
+ pop://username@popserver[:port]/.
+
+ Polling for new mail is more expensive over POP3 than locally. For
+ this reason the frequency at which Mutt-ng will check for mail
+ remotely can be controlled by the $\b$p\bpo\bop\bp_\b_m\bma\bai\bil\bl_\b_c\bch\bhe\bec\bck\bk variable, which
+ defaults to every 60 seconds.
+
+ If Mutt-ng was compiled with SSL support (by running the _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf_\bi_\bg_\bu_\br_\be
+ script with the _\b-_\b-_\bw_\bi_\bt_\bh_\b-_\bs_\bs_\bl flag), connections to POP3 servers can be
+ encrypted. This naturally requires that the server supports SSL
+ encrypted connections. To access a folder with POP3/SSL, you should
+ use pops: prefix, ie: pops://[username@]popserver[:port]/.
+
+ Another way to access your POP3 mail is the _\bf_\be_\bt_\bc_\bh_\b-_\bm_\ba_\bi_\bl function
+ (default: G). It allows to connect to p\bpo\bop\bp-\b-h\bho\bos\bst\bt ,fetch all your new
+ mail and place it in the local $\b$s\bsp\bpo\boo\bol\blf\bfi\bil\ble\be. After this point, Mutt-ng
+ runs exactly as if the mail had always been local.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: If you only need to fetch all messages to local mailbox you
+ should consider using a specialized program, such as fetchmail(1).
+
+14. IMAP Support (OPTIONAL)
+
+ If Mutt-ng was compiled with IMAP support (by running the _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf_\bi_\bg_\bu_\br_\be
+ script with the _\b-_\b-_\be_\bn_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b-_\bi_\bm_\ba_\bp flag), it has the ability to work with
+ folders located on a remote IMAP server.
+
+ You can access the remote inbox by selecting the folder via its URL:
+
+imap://imapserver/INBOX
+
+ where imapserver is the name of the IMAP server and INBOX is the
+ special name for your spool mailbox on the IMAP server. If you want to
+ access another mail folder at the IMAP server, you should use
+
+imap://imapserver/path/to/folder
+
+ where path/to/folder is the path of the folder you want to access. You
+ can select an alternative port by specifying it with the server, i.e.:
+
+imap://imapserver:port/INBOX
+
+ You can also specify different username for each folder by prenpending
+ your username and an @ symbol to the server's name.
+
+ If Mutt-ng was compiled with SSL support (by running the _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf_\bi_\bg_\bu_\br_\be
+ script with the _\b-_\b-_\bw_\bi_\bt_\bh_\b-_\bs_\bs_\bl flag), connections to IMAP servers can be
+ encrypted. This naturally requires that the server supports SSL
+ encrypted connections. To access a folder with IMAP/SSL, you only need
+ to substitute the initial imap:// by imaps:// in the above examples.
+
+ Note that not all servers use / as the hierarchy separator. Mutt-ng
+ should correctly notice which separator is being used by the server
+ and convertpaths accordingly.
+
+ When browsing folders on an IMAP server, you can toggle whether to
+ look at only the folders you are subscribed to, or all folders with
+ the _\bt_\bo_\bg_\bg_\bl_\be_\b-_\bs_\bu_\bb_\bs_\bc_\br_\bi_\bb_\be_\bd command. See also the $\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_l\bli\bis\bst\bt_\b_s\bsu\bub\bbs\bsc\bcr\bri\bib\bbe\bed\bd
+ variable.
+
+ Polling for new mail on an IMAP server can cause noticeable delays.
+ So, you'll want to carefully tune the $\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_m\bma\bai\bil\bl_\b_c\bch\bhe\bec\bck\bk and $\b$t\bti\bim\bme\beo\bou\but\bt
+ variables.
+
+ Note that if you are using mbox as the mail store on UW servers prior
+ tov12.250, the server has been reported to disconnect a client if
+ another client selects the same folder.
+
+14.1. The Folder Browser
+
+ As of version 1.2, mutt supports browsing mailboxes on an IMAP server.
+ This is mostly the same as the local file browser, with the following
+ differences:
+ * Instead of file permissions, mutt displays the string "IMAP",
+ possibly followed by the symbol "+", indicating that the entry
+ contains both messages and subfolders. On Cyrus-like servers
+ folders will often contain both messages and subfolders.
+ * For the case where an entry can contain both messages and
+ subfolders, the selection key (bound to enter by default) will
+ choose to descend into the subfolder view. If you wish to view the
+ messages in that folder, you must use view-file instead (bound to
+ space by default).
+ * You can create, delete and rename mailboxes with the
+ create-mailbox, delete-mailbox, and rename-mailbox commands
+ (default bindings: C , d and r, respectively). You may also
+ subscribe and unsubscribe to mailboxes (normally these are bound
+ to s and u, respectively).
+
+14.2. Authentication
+
+ Mutt-ng supports four authentication methods with IMAP servers: SASL,
+ GSSAPI, CRAM-MD5, and LOGIN (there is a patch by Grant Edwards to add
+ NTLM authentication for you poor exchange users out there, but it has
+ yet to be integrated into the main tree). There is also support for
+ the pseudo-protocol ANONYMOUS, which allows you to log in to a public
+ IMAP server without having an account. To use ANONYMOUS, simply make
+ your username blank or "anonymous".
+
+ SASL is a special super-authenticator, which selects among several
+ protocols (including GSSAPI, CRAM-MD5, ANONYMOUS, and DIGEST-MD5) the
+ most secure method available on your host and the server. Using some
+ of these methods (including DIGEST-MD5 and possibly GSSAPI), your
+ entire session will be encrypted and invisible to those teeming
+ network snoops. It is the best option if you have it. To use it, you
+ must have the Cyrus SASL libraryinstalled on your system and compile
+ mutt with the _\b-_\b-_\bw_\bi_\bt_\bh_\b-_\bs_\ba_\bs_\bl flag.
+
+ Mutt-ng will try whichever methods are compiled in and available on
+ the server, in the following order: SASL, ANONYMOUS, GSSAPI, CRAM-MD5,
+ LOGIN.
+
+ There are a few variables which control authentication:
+ * $\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_u\bus\bse\ber\br - controls the username under which you request
+ authentication on the IMAP server, for all authenticators. This is
+ overridden by an explicit username in the mailbox path (i.e. by
+ using a mailbox name of the form {user@host}).
+ * $\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_p\bpa\bas\bss\bs - a password which you may preset, used by all
+ authentication methods where a password is needed.
+ * $\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_a\bau\but\bth\bhe\ben\bnt\bti\bic\bca\bat\bto\bor\brs\bs - a colon-delimited list of IMAP
+ authentication methods to try, in the order you wish to try them.
+ If specified, this overrides mutt's default (attempt everything,
+ in the order listed above).
+
+15. NNTP Support (OPTIONAL)
+
+ If compiled with ``--enable-nntp'' option, Mutt-ng can read news from
+ a newsserver via NNTP. You can open a newsgroup with the
+ ``change-newsgroup'' function from the index/pager which is by default
+ bound to i.
+
+ The Default newsserver can be obtained from the $NNTPSERVER
+ environment variable. Like other news readers, info about subscribed
+ newsgroups is saved in a file as specified by the $\b$n\bnn\bnt\btp\bp_\b_n\bne\bew\bws\bsr\brc\bc
+ variable. Article headers are cached and can be loaded from a file
+ when a newsgroup is entered instead loading from newsserver;
+ currently, this caching mechanism still is different from the header
+ caching for maildir/IMAP.
+
+15.1. Again: Scoring
+
+ Especially for Usenet, people often ask for advanced filtering and
+ scoring functionality. Of course, mutt-ng has scoring and allows a
+ killfile, too. How to use a killfile has been discussed in M\bMe\bes\bss\bsa\bag\bge\be
+ S\bSc\bco\bor\bri\bin\bng\bg.
+
+ What has not been discusses in detail is mutt-ng's built-in realname
+ filter. For may newsreaders including those for ``advanced users''
+ like _\bs_\bl_\br_\bn or _\bt_\bi_\bn, there are frequent request for such functionality.
+ The solutions offered often are complicated regular expressions.
+
+ In mutt-ng this is as easy as
+
+score ~* =42
+
+ This tells mutt-ng to apply a score of 42 to all messages whose sender
+ specified a valid realname and a valid email address. Using
+
+score !~* =42
+
+ on the contrary applies a score of 42 to all messages _\bn_\bo_\bt matching
+ those criteria which are very strict:
+
+ * Email addresses must be valid according to R\bRf\bfC\bC \b 2\b28\b82\b22\b2
+ * the name must consist of at least 2 fields whereby a field must
+ not end in a dot. This means that ``Joe User'' and ``Joe A.User''
+ are valid while ``J. User'' and ``J. A. User'' aren't.
+ * it's assumed that users are interested in reading their own mail
+ and mail from people who they have defined an alias forso that
+ those 2 groups of messages are excluded from the strict rules.
+
+16. SMTP Support (OPTIONAL)
+
+ Mutt-ng can be built using a library called ``libESMTP'' which
+ provides SMTP functionality. When configure was called with
+ --with-libesmtp or the output muttng -v contains +USE_LIBESMTP, this
+ will be or is the case already. The SMTP support includes support for
+ Delivery Status Notification (see d\bds\bsn\bn section) as well as handling the
+ 8BITMIME flag controlled via $\b$u\bus\bse\be_\b_8\b8b\bbi\bit\btm\bmi\bim\bme\be.
+
+ To enable sending mail directly via SMTP without an MTA such as
+ Postfix or SSMTP and the like, simply set the $\b$s\bsm\bmt\btp\bp_\b_h\bho\bos\bst\bt variable
+ pointing to your SMTP server.
+
+ Authentication mechanisms are available via the $\b$s\bsm\bmt\btp\bp_\b_u\bus\bse\ber\br and
+ $\b$s\bsm\bmt\btp\bp_\b_p\bpa\bas\bss\bs variables.
+
+ Transport Encryption via the StartTLS command is also available. For
+ this to work, first of all Mutt-ng must be built with SSL or GNUTLS.
+ Secondly, the $\b$s\bsm\bmt\btp\bp_\b_u\bus\bse\be_\b_t\btl\bls\bs variable must be either set to ``enabled''
+ or ``required.'' In both cases, StartTLS will be used if the server
+ supports it: for the second case, the connection will fail ifit
+ doesn't while switching back to unencrypted communication for the
+ first one.
+
+ Some mail providers require user's to set a particular envelope
+ sender, i.e. they allow for only one value which may not be what the
+ user wants to send as the From: header. In this case, the variable
+ $\b$s\bsm\bmt\btp\bp_\b_e\ben\bnv\bve\bel\blo\bop\bpe\be may be used to set the envelope different from the
+ From: header.
+
+17. Managing multiple IMAP/POP/NNTP accounts (OPTIONAL)
+
+ If you happen to have accounts on multiple IMAP and/or POP servers,
+ you may find managing all the authentication settings inconvenient and
+ error-prone. The a\bac\bcc\bco\bou\bun\bnt\bt-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk command may help. This hook works like
+ f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk but is invoked whenever you access a remote mailbox
+ (including inside the folder browser), not just when you open the
+ mailbox.
+
+ Some examples:
+
+account-hook . 'unset imap_user; unset imap_pass; unset tunnel'
+account-hook imap://host1/ 'set imap_user=me1 imap_pass=foo'
+account-hook imap://host2/ 'set tunnel="ssh host2 /usr/libexec/imapd"'
- This is the string that will precede a message which has been included
- in a reply. For a full listing of defined printf()-like sequences see
- the section on ````$index_format''''.
+18. Start a WWW Browser on URLs (EXTERNAL)
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.1\b17\b7.\b. a\bau\but\bto\boe\bed\bdi\bit\bt
+ If a message contains URLs (_\bu_\bn_\bi_\bf_\bi_\be_\bd_\b _\br_\be_\bs_\bo_\bu_\br_\bc_\be_\b _\bl_\bo_\bc_\ba_\bt_\bo_\br = address in the
+ WWW space like _\bh_\bt_\bt_\bp_\b:_\b/_\b/_\bw_\bw_\bw_\b._\bm_\bu_\bt_\bt_\b._\bo_\br_\bg_\b/), it is efficient to get a menu
+ with all the URLs and start a WWW browser on one of them. This
+ functionality is provided by the external urlview program which can be
+ retrieved at <\b<f\bft\btp\bp:\b:/\b//\b/f\bft\btp\bp.\b.m\bmu\but\btt\bt.\b.o\bor\brg\bg/\b/m\bmu\but\btt\bt/\b/c\bco\bon\bnt\btr\bri\bib\bb/\b/>\b> and the configuration
+ commands:
+macro index \cb |urlview\n
+macro pager \cb |urlview\n
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+19. Compressed folders Support (OPTIONAL)
- When set along with ````$edit_headers'''', Mutt will skip the initial
- send-menu and allow you to immediately begin editing the body of your
- message. The send-menu may still be accessed once you have finished
- editing the body of your message.
+ If Mutt-ng was compiled with compressed folders support (by running
+ the _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf_\bi_\bg_\bu_\br_\be script with the _\b-_\b-_\be_\bn_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b-_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\br_\be_\bs_\bs_\be_\bd flag), Mutt can open
+ folders stored in an arbitrary format, provided that the user has a
+ script to convert from/to this format to one of the accepted.
- Also see ````$fast_reply''''.
+ The most common use is to open compressed archived folders e.g. with
+ gzip.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.1\b18\b8.\b. a\bau\but\bto\bo_\b_t\bta\bag\bg
+ In addition, the user can provide a script that gets a folder in an
+ accepted format and appends its context to the folder in the
+ user-defined format, which may be faster than converting the entire
+ folder to the accepted format, appending to it and converting back to
+ the user-defined format.
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ There are three hooks defined (o\bop\bpe\ben\bn-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk, c\bcl\blo\bos\bse\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk and a\bap\bpp\bpe\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+ )which define commands to uncompress and compress a folder and to
+ append messages to an existing compressed folder respectively.
- When set, functions in the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx menu which affect a message will be
- applied to all tagged messages (if there are any). When unset, you
- must first use the tag-prefix function (default: ";") to make the next
- function apply to all tagged messages.
+ For example:
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.1\b19\b9.\b. b\bbe\bee\bep\bp
+open-hook \\.gz$ "gzip -cd %f > %t"
+close-hook \\.gz$ "gzip -c %t > %f"
+append-hook \\.gz$ "gzip -c %t >> %f"
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ You do not have to specify all of the commands. If you omit
+ a\bap\bpp\bpe\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk ,the folder will be open and closed again each time you
+ will add to it. If you omit c\bcl\blo\bos\bse\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk (or give empty command) , the
+ folder will be open in the mode. If you specify a\bap\bpp\bpe\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk though
+ you'll be able to append to the folder.
- When this variable is set, mutt will beep when an error occurs.
+ Note that Mutt-ng will only try to use hooks if the file is not in one
+ of the accepted formats. In particular, if the file is empty, mutt
+ supposes it is not compressed. This is important because it allows the
+ use of programs that do not have well defined extensions. Just use "."
+ as a regexp. But this may be surprising if your compressing script
+ produces empty files. In this situation, unset $\b$s\bsa\bav\bve\be_\b_e\bem\bmp\bpt\bty\by ,so that
+ the compressed file will be removed if you delete all of the messages.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b20\b0.\b. b\bbe\bee\bep\bp_\b_n\bne\bew\bw
+19.1. Open a compressed mailbox for reading
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ Usage: o\bop\bpe\ben\bn-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp "_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd"
- When this variable is set, mutt will beep whenever it prints a message
- notifying you of new mail. This is independent of the setting of the
- ````$beep'''' variable.
+ The _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd is the command that can be used for opening the folders
+ whose names match _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b21\b1.\b. b\bbo\bou\bun\bnc\bce\be
+ The _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd string is the printf-like format string, and it should
+ accept two parameters: %f, which is replaced with the (compressed)
+ folder name, and %t which is replaced with the name of the temporary
+ folder to which to write.
- Type: quadoption
- Default: ask-yes
+ %f and %t can be repeated any number of times in the command string,
+ and all of the entries are replaced with the appropriate folder name.
+ In addition, %% is replaced by %, as in printf, and any other
+ %anything is left as is.
- Controls whether you will be asked to confirm bouncing messages. If
- set to _\by_\be_\bs you don't get asked if you want to bounce a message.
- Setting this variable to _\bn_\bo is not generally useful, and thus not
- recommended, because you are unable to bounce messages.
+ The _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd should _\bn_\bo_\bt remove the original compressed file. The
+ _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd should return non-zero exit status if it fails, so mutt knows
+ something's wrong.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b22\b2.\b. b\bbo\bou\bun\bnc\bce\be_\b_d\bde\bel\bli\biv\bve\ber\bre\bed\bd
+ Example:
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+open-hook \\.gz$ "gzip -cd %f > %t"
- When this variable is set, mutt will include Delivered-To headers when
- bouncing messages. Postfix users may wish to unset this variable.
+ If the _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd is empty, this operation is disabled for this file
+ type.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b23\b3.\b. c\bca\bat\btc\bch\bhu\bup\bp_\b_n\bne\bew\bws\bsg\bgr\bro\bou\bup\bp
+19.2. Write a compressed mailbox
- Type: quadoption
- Default: ask-yes
+ Usage: c\bcl\blo\bos\bse\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp"_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd"
- If this variable is _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt will mark all articles in newsgroup as
- read when you quit the newsgroup (catchup newsgroup).
+ This is used to close the folder that was open with the o\bop\bpe\ben\bn-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+ command after some changes were made to it.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b24\b4.\b. c\bch\bha\bar\brs\bse\bet\bt
+ The _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd string is the command that can be used for closing the
+ folders whose names match _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp. It has the same format as in the
+ o\bop\bpe\ben\bn-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk command. Temporary folder in this case is the folder
+ previously produced by the o\bop\bpe\ben\bn-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk command.
- Type: string
- Default: ""
+ The _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd should _\bn_\bo_\bt remove the decompressed file. The _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd
+ should return non-zero exit status if it fails, so mutt knows
+ something's wrong.
- Character set your terminal uses to display and enter textual data.
+ Example:
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b25\b5.\b. c\bch\bhe\bec\bck\bk_\b_n\bne\bew\bw
+close-hook \\.gz$ "gzip -c %t > %f"
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ If the _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd is empty, this operation is disabled for this file
+ type, and the file can only be open in the readonly mode.
- N\bNo\bot\bte\be:\b: this option only affects _\bm_\ba_\bi_\bl_\bd_\bi_\br and _\bM_\bH style mailboxes.
+ c\bcl\blo\bos\bse\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk is not called when you exit from the folder if the folder
+ was not changed.
- When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt will check for new mail delivered while the mailbox is
- open. Especially with MH mailboxes, this operation can take quite
- some time since it involves scanning the directory and checking each
- file to see if it has already been looked at. If _\bc_\bh_\be_\bc_\bk_\b__\bn_\be_\bw is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt,
- no check for new mail is performed while the mailbox is open.
+19.3. Append a message to a compressed mailbox
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b26\b6.\b. c\bco\bol\bll\bla\bap\bps\bse\be_\b_u\bun\bnr\bre\bea\bad\bd
+ Usage: a\bap\bpp\bpe\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk_\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp"_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd"
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ This command is used for saving to an existing compressed folder. The
+ _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd is the command that can be used for appending to the folders
+ whose names match _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp. It has the same format as in the o\bop\bpe\ben\bn-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+ command. The temporary folder in this case contains the messages that
+ are beingappended.
- When _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt will not collapse a thread if it contains any unread
- messages.
+ The _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd should _\bn_\bo_\bt remove the decompressed file. The _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd
+ should return non-zero exit status if it fails, so mutt knows
+ something's wrong.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b27\b7.\b. u\bun\bnc\bco\bol\bll\bla\bap\bps\bse\be_\b_j\bju\bum\bmp\bp
+ Example:
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+append-hook \\.gz$ "gzip -c %t >> %f"
- When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt will jump to the next unread message, if any, when the
- current thread is _\bu_\bncollapsed.
+ When a\bap\bpp\bpe\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk is used, the folder is not opened, which saves time,
+ but this means that we can not find out what the folder type is. Thus
+ the default ($\b$m\bmb\bbo\box\bx_\b_t\bty\byp\bpe\be )type is always supposed (i.e. this is the
+ format used for the temporary folder).
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b28\b8.\b. c\bco\bom\bmp\bpo\bos\bse\be_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt
+ If the file does not exist when you save to it, c\bcl\blo\bos\bse\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk is called,
+ and not a\bap\bpp\bpe\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk. a\bap\bpp\bpe\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk is only for appending to existing
+ folders.
- Type: string
- Default: "-- Mutt: Compose [Approx. msg size: %l Atts: %a]%>-"
+ If the _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd is empty, this operation is disabled for this file
+ type. In this case, the folder will be open and closed again (using
+ o\bop\bpe\ben\bn-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk and c\bcl\blo\bos\bse\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk respectively) each time you will add to it.
- Controls the format of the status line displayed in the \fCompose
- menu. This string is similar to ````$status_format'''', but has its
- own set of printf()-like sequences:
+19.4. Encrypted folders
- %\b%a\ba total number of attachments
+ The compressed folders support can also be used to handle encrypted
+ folders. If you want to encrypt a folder with PGP, you may want to
+ usethe following hooks:
- %\b%h\bh local hostname
+open-hook \\.pgp$ "pgp -f < %f > %t"
+close-hook \\.pgp$ "pgp -fe YourPgpUserIdOrKeyId < %t > %f"
- %\b%l\bl approximate size (in bytes) of the current message
+ Please note, that PGP does not support appending to an encrypted
+ folder, so there is no a\bap\bpp\bpe\ben\bnd\bd-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk defined.
- %\b%v\bv Mutt version string
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: the folder is temporary stored decrypted in the /tmp directory,
+ where it can be read by your system administrator. So thinkabout the
+ security aspects of this.

+ Quite a bit of effort has been made to make Mutt-ng the premier
+ text-mode MIME MUA. Every effort has been made to provide the
+ functionality that the discerning MIME user requires, and the
+ conformance to the standards wherever possible. When configuring
+ Mutt-ng for MIME, there are two extratypes of configuration files
+ which Mutt-ng uses. One is the mime.types file, which contains the
+ mapping of file extensions to IANA MIME types. The other is the
+ mailcap file, which specifies the external commands to use for
+ handling specific MIME types.
+
+1. Using MIME in Mutt
+
+ There are three areas/menus in Mutt-ng which deal with MIME, they are
+ the pager (while viewing a message), the attachment menu and the
+ compose menu.
+
+1.1. Viewing MIME messages in the pager
+
+ When you select a message from the index and view it in the pager,
+ Mutt decodes the message to a text representation. Mutt-ng internally
+ supports a number of MIME types, including text/plain, text/enriched,
+ message/rfc822, and message/news .In addition, the export controlled
+ version of Mutt-ng recognizes a variety of PGP MIME types, including
+ PGP/MIME and application/pgp.
+
+ Mutt-ng will denote attachments with a couple lines describing them.
+ These lines are of the form:
+[-- Attachment #1: Description --]
+[-- Type: text/plain, Encoding: 7bit, Size: 10000 --]
+
+ Where the Description is the description or filename given for the
+ attachment, 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) --]
+
+1.2. The Attachment Menu
+
+ The default binding for view-attachments is `v', which displays the
+ attachment menu for a message. The attachment menu displays a list
+ ofthe attachments in a message. From the attachment menu, you can
+ save, print, pipe, delete, and view attachments. You can apply these
+ operations to a group of attachments at once, by tagging the
+ attachments and by using the ``tag-prefix'' operator. You can also
+ reply to the current message from this menu, and only the current
+ attachment (or the attachments tagged) will be quoted in your reply.
+ You can view attachments as text, or view them using the mailcap
+ viewer definition.
+
+ Finally, you can apply the usual message-related functions (like
+ <resend-message>, and the reply and forward functions) to attachments
+ of type message/rfc822.
+
+ See the help on the attachment menu for more information.
+
+1.3. The Compose Menu
+
+ The compose menu is the menu you see before you send a message. It
+ allows you to edit the recipient list, the subject, and other aspects
+ of your message. It also contains a list of the attachments of your
+ message, including the main body. From this menu, you can print, copy,
+ filter, pipe, edit, compose, review, and rename an attachment or a
+ list of tagged attachments. You can also modifying the attachment
+ information, notably the type, encoding and description.
+
+ Attachments appear as follows:
+1 [text/plain, 7bit, 1K] /tmp/mutt-euler-8082-0 <no description>
+2 [applica/x-gunzip, base64, 422K] ~/src/mutt-0.85.tar.gz <no description>
+
+ 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 the edit-type command (default:
+ ^T). The next field is the encoding for the attachment, which allows a
+ binary message to be encoded for transmission on 7bit links. It can be
+ changed with the edit-encoding command (default: ^E). The next field
+ is the size of the attachment, rounded to kilobytes or megabytes. The
+ next field is the filename, which can be changed with the rename-file
+ command (default: R). The final field is the description of the
+ attachment, and can be changed with the edit-description command
+ (default: d).
+
+2. MIME Type configuration with mime.types
+
+ When you add an attachment to your mail message, Mutt-ng searches your
+ personal mime.types file within $HOME and then the system mime.types
+ file at /usr/local/share/mutt/mime.types or /etc/mime.types
+
+ The mime.types file consist of lines containing a MIME type and a
+ space separated list of extensions. For example:
+application/postscript ps eps
+application/pgp pgp
+audio/x-aiff aif aifc aiff
+
+ A sample mime.types file comes with the Mutt-ng distribution, and
+ should contain most of the MIME types you are likely to use.
+
+ If Mutt-ng can not determine the mime type by the extension of the
+ file you attach, it will look at the file. If the file is free of
+ binary information, Mutt-ng will assume that the file is plain text,
+ and mark it as text/plain. If the file contains binary information,
+ then Mutt-ng will mark it as application/octet-stream. You can change
+ the MIME type that Mutt-ng assigns to an attachment by using the
+ edit-type command from the compose menu (default: ^T). The MIME type
+ is actually a major mime type followed by the sub-type, separated by a
+ '/'. 6 major types: application, text, image, video, audio, and model
+ have been approved after various internet discussions. Mutt-ng
+ recognises all of these if the appropriate entry is found in the
+ mime.types file. It also recognises other major mime types, such as
+ the chemical type that is widely used in the molecular modelling
+ community to pass molecular data in various forms to various molecular
+ viewers. Non-recognised mime types should only be used if the
+ recipient of the message is likely to be expecting such attachments.
+
+3. MIME Viewer configuration with mailcap
+
+ Mutt-ng supports R\bRf\bfC\bC \b 1\b15\b52\b24\b4 MIME Configuration, in particular the Unix
+ specific format specified in Appendix A of the RfC. This file format
+ is commonly 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, Mutt-ng parses a series of external configuration files to
+ find an external handler. The default search string for these files is
+ a colon delimited list set to
+${HOME}/.mailcap:/usr/local/share/mutt/mailcap:/etc/mailcap:/etc/mailcap:/usr/e
+tc/mailcap:/usr/local/etc/mailcap
+
+ where $HOME is your home directory.
+
+ In particular, the metamail distribution will install a mailcap file,
+ usually as /usr/local/etc/mailcap, which contains some baseline
+ entries.
+
+3.1. The Basics of the mailcap file
+
+ A mailcap file consists of a series of lines which are comments,
+ blank, or definitions.
+
+ A comment line consists of a # character followed by anything you
+ want.
+
+ A blank line is blank.
+
+ A definition line consists of a content type, a view command, and any
+ number of optional fields. Each field of a definition line is
+ dividedby a semicolon ';' character.
+
+ The content type is specified in the MIME standard type/subtype
+ method. For example, text/plain, text/html, image/gif, etc. In
+ addition, the mailcap format includes two formats for wildcards, one
+ using the special '*' subtype, the other is the implicit wild, where
+ you only include the major type. For example, image/* ,or video, will
+ match all image types and video types, respectively.
+
+ The view command is a Unix command for viewing the type specified.
+ There are two different types of commands supported. The default is to
+ send the body of the MIME message to the command on stdin. You can
+ change this behavior by using %s as a parameter to your view command.
+ This will cause Mutt-ng to save the body of the MIME message to a
+ temporary file, and then call the view command with the %s replaced by
+ the name of the temporary file. In both cases, Mutt-ng will turn over
+ the terminal to the view program until the program quits, at which
+ time Mutt will remove the temporary file if it exists.
+
+ So, in the simplest form, you can send a text/plain message to the
+ external pager more on stdin:
+text/plain; more
+
+ Or, you could send the message as a file:
+text/plain; more %s
+
+ Perhaps you would like to use lynx to interactively view a text/html
+ message:
+text/html; lynx %s
+
+ In this case, lynx does not support viewing a file from stdin, so you
+ must use the %s syntax. _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b:_\bS_\bo_\bm_\be_\b _\bo_\bl_\bd_\be_\br_\b _\bv_\be_\br_\bs_\bi_\bo_\bn_\bs_\b _\bo_\bf_\b _\bl_\by_\bn_\bx_\b _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bt_\ba_\bi_\bn_\b _\ba_\b _\bb_\bu_\bg
+ _\bw_\bh_\be_\br_\be_\b _\bt_\bh_\be_\by_\b _\bw_\bi_\bl_\bl_\b _\bc_\bh_\be_\bc_\bk_\b _\bt_\bh_\be_\b _\bm_\ba_\bi_\bl_\bc_\ba_\bp_\b _\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\b _\bf_\bo_\br_\b _\ba_\b _\bv_\bi_\be_\bw_\be_\br_\b _\bf_\bo_\br_\b _\bt_\be_\bx_\bt_\b/_\bh_\bt_\bm_\bl_\b.
+ _\bT_\bh_\be_\by_\b _\bw_\bi_\bl_\bl_\b _\bf_\bi_\bn_\bd_\b _\bt_\bh_\be_\b _\bl_\bi_\bn_\be_\b _\bw_\bh_\bi_\bc_\bh_\b _\bc_\ba_\bl_\bl_\bs_\b _\bl_\by_\bn_\bx_\b,_\b _\ba_\bn_\bd_\b _\br_\bu_\bn_\b _\bi_\bt_\b._\b _\bT_\bh_\bi_\bs_\b _\bc_\ba_\bu_\bs_\be_\bs_\b _\bl_\by_\bn_\bx
+ _\bt_\bo_\b _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bt_\bi_\bn_\bu_\bo_\bu_\bs_\bl_\by_\b _\bs_\bp_\ba_\bw_\bn_\b _\bi_\bt_\bs_\be_\bl_\bf_\b _\bt_\bo_\b _\bv_\bi_\be_\bw_\b _\bt_\bh_\be_\b _\bo_\bb_\bj_\be_\bc_\bt_\b.
+
+ On the other hand, maybe you don't want to use lynx interactively,
+ youjust want to have it convert the text/html to text/plain, then you
+ can use:
+text/html; lynx -dump %s | more
+
+ Perhaps you wish to use lynx to view text/html files, and a pager on
+ all other text formats, then you would use the following:
+text/html; lynx %s
+text/*; more
+
+ This is the simplest form of a mailcap file.
+
+3.2. Secure use of mailcap
+
+ The interpretation of shell meta-characters embedded in MIME
+ parameters can lead to security problems in general. Mutt-ng tries to
+ quote parameters in expansion of %s syntaxes properly, and avoids
+ risky characters by substituting them, see the $\b$m\bma\bai\bil\blc\bca\bap\bp_\b_s\bsa\ban\bni\bit\bti\biz\bze\be
+ variable.
+
+ Although mutt's procedures to invoke programs with mailcap seem to be
+ safe, there are other applications parsing mailcap, maybe taking less
+ care of it. Therefore you should pay attention to the following rules:
+
+ _\bK_\be_\be_\bp_\b _\bt_\bh_\be_\b _\b%_\b-_\be_\bx_\bp_\ba_\bn_\bd_\bo_\bs_\b _\ba_\bw_\ba_\by_\b _\bf_\br_\bo_\bm_\b _\bs_\bh_\be_\bl_\bl_\b _\bq_\bu_\bo_\bt_\bi_\bn_\bg_\b. Don't quote them with
+ single or double quotes. Mutt-ng does this for you, the right way, as
+ should any other program which interprets mailcap. Don't put them into
+ backtick expansions. Be highly careful with eval statements, and avoid
+ them if possible at all. Trying to fix broken behaviour with quotes
+ introduces new leaks - there is no alternative to correct quoting in
+ the first place.
+
+ If you have to use the %-expandos' values in context where you need
+ quoting or backtick expansions, put that value into a shell variable
+ and reference the shell variable where necessary, as in the following
+ example (using $charset inside the backtick expansion is safe, since
+ it is not itself subject to any further expansion):
+
+text/test-mailcap-bug; cat %s; copiousoutput; test=charset=%{charset} \
+&& test "`echo $charset | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`" != iso-8859-1
+
+3.3. Advanced mailcap Usage
+
+3.3.1. Optional Fields
+
+ In addition to the required content-type and view command fields, you
+ can add semi-colon ';' separated fields to set flags and other
+ options. Mutt-ng recognizes the following optional fields:
+
+ copiousoutput
+ This flag tells Mutt-ng that the command passes possibly large
+ amounts of text on stdout. This causes Mutt-ng to invoke a
+ pager (either the internal pager or the external pager defined
+ by the pager variable) on the output of the view command.
+ Without this flag, Mutt-ng assumes that the command is
+ interactive. One could use this to replace the pipe to more in
+ the lynx -dump example in the Basic section:
+
+text/html; lynx -dump %s ; copiousoutput
+
+ This will cause lynx to format the text/html output as
+ text/plain and Mutt-ng will use your standard pager to display
+ the results.
+
+ needsterminal
+ Mutt-ng uses this flag when viewing attachments with a\bau\but\bto\bo_\b_v\bvi\bie\bew\bw,
+ in order to decide whether it should honor the setting of the
+ $\b$w\bwa\bai\bit\bt_\b_k\bke\bey\by variable or not. When an attachment is viewed using
+ an interactive program, and the corresponding mailcap entry has
+ a _\bn_\be_\be_\bd_\bs_\bt_\be_\br_\bm_\bi_\bn_\ba_\bl flag, Mutt-ng will use $\b$w\bwa\bai\bit\bt_\b_k\bke\bey\by and the exit
+ statusof the program to decide if it will ask you to press a
+ key after the external program has exited. In all other
+ situations it will not prompt you for a key.
+
+ compose=<command>
+ This flag specifies the command to use to create a new
+ attachment of a specific MIME type. Mutt-ng supports this from
+ the compose menu.
+
+ composetyped=<command>
+ This flag specifies the command to use to create a new
+ attachment of a specific MIME type. This command differs from
+ the compose command in that mutt will expect standard MIME
+ headers on the data. This can be used to specify parameters,
+ filename, description, etc. for a new attachment. Mutt-ng
+ supports this from the compose menu.
+
+ print=<command>
+ This flag specifies the command to use to print a specific MIME
+ type. Mutt-ng supports this from the attachment and compose
+ menus.
+
+ edit=<command>
+ This flag specifies the command to use to edit a specific MIME
+ type. Mutt-ng supports this from the compose menu, and also
+ uses it to compose new attachments. Mutt-ng will default to the
+ defined editor for text attachments.
+
+ nametemplate=<template>
+ This field specifies the format for the file denoted by %s in
+ the command fields. Certain programs will require a certain
+ file extension, for instance, to correctly view a file. For
+ instance, lynx will only interpret a file as text/html if the
+ file ends in .html. So, you would specify lynx as a text/html
+ viewer with a line in the mailcap file like:
+
+text/html; lynx %s; nametemplate=%s.html
+
+ test=<command>
+ This field specifies a command to run to test whether this
+ mailcap entry should be used. The command is defined with the
+ command expansion rules defined in the next section. If the
+ command returns 0, then the test passed, and Mutt-ng uses this
+ entry. If the command returns non-zero, then the test failed,
+ and Mutt-ng continues searching for the right entry. _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b:_\bt_\bh_\be
+ _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bt_\be_\bn_\bt_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\bm_\bu_\bs_\bt_\b _\bm_\ba_\bt_\bc_\bh_\b _\bb_\be_\bf_\bo_\br_\be_\b _\bM_\bu_\bt_\bt_\b-_\bn_\bg_\b _\bp_\be_\br_\bf_\bo_\br_\bm_\bs_\b _\bt_\bh_\be_\b _\bt_\be_\bs_\bt_\b. For
+ example:
+
+text/html; netscape -remote 'openURL(%s)' ; test=RunningX
+text/html; lynx %s
+
+ In this example, Mutt-ng will run the program RunningX which
+ will return 0 if the X Window manager is running, and non-zero
+ if it isn't. If RunningX returns 0, then Mutt-ng will call
+ netscape to display the text/html object. If RunningX doesn't
+ return 0, then Mutt-ng will go on to the next entry and use
+ lynx to display the text/html object.
+
+3.3.2. Search Order
+
+ When searching for an entry in the mailcap file, Mutt-ng will search
+ for the most useful entry for its purpose. For instance, if you are
+ attempting to print an image/gif, and you have the following entries
+ in your mailcap file, Mutt-ng will search for an entry with the print
+ command:
+image/*; xv %s
+image/gif; ; print= anytopnm %s | pnmtops | lpr; \
+nametemplate=%s.gif
+
+ Mutt-ng will skip the image/* entry and use the image/gif entry with
+ the print command.
+
+ In addition, you can use this with a\bau\but\bto\bo_\b_v\bvi\bie\bew\bw to denote two commands
+ for viewing an attachment, one to be viewed automatically, the other
+ to be viewed interactively from the attachment menu. In addition, you
+ can then use the test feature to determine which viewer to use
+ interactively depending on your environment.
+text/html; netscape -remote 'openURL(%s)' ; test=RunningX
+text/html; lynx %s; nametemplate=%s.html
+text/html; lynx -dump %s; nametemplate=%s.html; copiousoutput
+
+ For a\bau\but\bto\bo_\b_v\bvi\bie\bew\bw, Mutt-ng will choose the third entry because of the
+ copiousoutput tag. For interactive viewing, Mutt will run the program
+ RunningX to determine if it should use the first entry. If the program
+ returns non-zero, Mutt-ng will use the second entry for interactive
+ viewing.
+
+3.3.3. Command Expansion
+
+ The various commands defined in the mailcap files are passed to the
+ /bin/sh shell using the system() function. Before the command is
+ passed to /bin/sh -c, it is parsed to expand various special
+ parameters with information from Mutt-ng. The keywords Mutt-ng expands
+ are:
+
+ %s
+ As seen in the basic mailcap section, this variable is expanded
+ to a filename specified by the calling program. This file
+ contains the body of the message to view/print/edit or where
+ the composing program should place the results of composition.
+ In addition, the use of this keyword causes Mutt-ng to not pass
+ the body of the message to the view/print/edit program on
+ stdin.
+
+ %t
+ Mutt-ng will expand %t to the text representation of the
+ content type of the message in the same form as the first
+ parameter of the mailcap definition line, ie text/html or
+ image/gif.
+
+ %{<parameter>}
+ Mutt-ng will expand this to the value of the specified
+ parameter from the Content-Type: line of the mail message. For
+ instance, if Your mail message contains:
+
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
+
+ then Mutt-ng will expand %{charset} to iso-8859-1. The default
+ metamail mailcap file uses this feature to test the charset to
+ spawn an xterm using the right charset to view the message.
+
+ \%
+ This will be replaced by a %
+
+ Mutt-ng does not currently support the %F and %n keywords specified in
+ R\bRf\bfC\bC \b 1\b15\b52\b24\b4. The main purpose of these parameters is for multipart
+ messages, which is handled internally by Mutt-ng.
+
+3.4. Example mailcap files
+
+ This mailcap file is fairly simple and standard:
+>
+# I'm always running X :)
+video/*; xanim %s > /dev/null
+image/*; xv %s > /dev/null
+
+# I'm always running netscape (if my computer had more memory, maybe)
+text/html; netscape -remote 'openURL(%s)'
+
+ This mailcap file shows quite a number of examples:
+
+# Use xanim to view all videos Xanim produces a header on startup,
+# send that to /dev/null so I don't see it
+video/*; xanim %s > /dev/null
+
+# Send html to a running netscape by remote
+text/html; netscape -remote 'openURL(%s)'; test=RunningNetscape
+# If I'm not running netscape but I am running X, start netscape on the
+# object
+text/html; netscape %s; test=RunningX
- Type: number
- Default: 30
+# Else use lynx to view it as text
+text/html; lynx %s
+
+# This version would convert the text/html to text/plain
+text/html; lynx -dump %s; copiousoutput
- Causes Mutt to timeout a network connection (for IMAP or POP) after
- this many seconds if the connection is not able to be established. A
- negative value causes Mutt to wait indefinitely for the connection to
- succeed.
+# I use enscript to print text in two columns to a page
+text/*; more %s; print=enscript -2Gr %s
+
+# Netscape adds a flag to tell itself to view jpegs internally
+image/jpeg;xv %s; x-mozilla-flags=internal
+
+# Use xv to view images if I'm running X
+# In addition, this uses the \ to extend the line and set my editor
+# for images
+image/*;xv %s; test=RunningX; edit=xpaint %s
+
+# Convert images to text using the netpbm tools
+image/*; (anytopnm %s | pnmscale -xysize 80 46 | ppmtopgm | \
+pgmtopbm | pbmtoascii -1x2 ) 2>&1 ; copiousoutput
+
+# Send excel spreadsheets to my NT box
+application/ms-excel; open.pl %s
+
+4. MIME Autoview
+
+ Usage: auto_view_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b[_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ Usage: unauto_view_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b[_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ In addition to explicitly telling Mutt-ng to view an attachment with
+ theMIME viewer defined in the mailcap file, Mutt-ng has support for
+ automatically viewing MIME attachments while in the pager.
+
+ To work, you must define a viewer in the mailcap file which uses the
+ copiousoutput option to denote that it is non-interactive. Usually,
+ you also use the entry to convert the attachment to a text
+ representation which you can view in the pager.
+
+ You then use the auto_view muttrc command to list the content-types
+ that you wish to view automatically.
+
+ For instance, if you set auto_view to:
+auto_view text/html application/x-gunzip application/postscript
+image/gif application/x-tar-gz
+
+ Mutt-ng could use the following mailcap entries to automatically view
+ attachments of these types.
+text/html; lynx -dump %s; copiousoutput; nametemplate=%s.html
+image/*; anytopnm %s | pnmscale -xsize 80 -ysize 50 | ppmtopgm | pgmtopb
+m | pbmtoascii ; copiousoutput
+application/x-gunzip; gzcat; copiousoutput
+application/x-tar-gz; gunzip -c %s | tar -tf - ; copiousoutput
+application/postscript; ps2ascii %s; copiousoutput
+
+ ``unauto_view'' can be used to remove previous entries from the
+ autoview list. This can be used with m\bme\bes\bss\bsa\bag\bge\be-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk to autoview messages
+ based on size, etc. ``unauto_view *'' will remove all previous
+ entries.
+
+5. MIME Multipart/Alternative
+
+ Usage: alternative_order_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b[_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ Usage: unalternative_order_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b[_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ Mutt-ng has some heuristics for determining which attachment of a
+ multipart/alternative type to display. First, mutt will check the
+ alternative_order list to determine if one of the available typesis
+ preferred. The alternative_order list consists of a number of MIME
+ types in order, including support for implicit and explicit wildcards,
+ for example:
+alternative_order text/enriched text/plain text
+application/postscript image/*
+
+ Next, mutt will check if any of the types have a defined a\bau\but\bto\bo_\b_v\bvi\bie\bew\bw,
+ and use that. Failing that, Mutt-ng will look for any text type. As a
+ last attempt, mutt willlook for any type it knows how to handle.
+
+ To remove a MIME type from the alternative_order list, use the
+ unalternative_order command.
+
+6. Attachment Searching and Counting
+
+ If you ever lose track of attachments in your mailboxes, Mutt's
+ attachment-counting and -searching support might be for you. You can
+ make your message index display the number of qualifying attachments
+ in each message, or search for messages by attachment count. You also
+ can configure what kinds of attachments qualify for this feature with
+ the attachments and unattachments commands.
+
+ The syntax is:
+
+ Usage: attachments_\b(_\b _\b{_\b+_\b|_\b-_\b}_\bd_\bi_\bs_\bp_\bo_\bs_\bi_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\b _\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b|_\b _\b?_\b _\b)
+
+ Usage: unattachments_\b{_\b+_\b|_\b-_\b}_\bd_\bi_\bs_\bp_\bo_\bs_\bi_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\b _\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be
+
+ Disposition is the attachment's Content-disposition type -- either
+ "inline" or "attachment". You can abbreviate this to I or A.
+
+ Disposition is prefixed by either a + symbolor a - symbol. If it's a
+ +, you're saying that you want to allow this disposition and MIME type
+ to qualify. If it's a -, you're saying that this disposition and MIME
+ type is an exception to previous + rules. There are examples below of
+ how this is useful.
+
+ Mime-type is, unsurprisingly, the MIME type of the attachment you want
+ to affect. A MIME type is always of the format "major/minor", where
+ "major" describes the broad category of document you're looking at,
+ and "minor" describes the specific type within that category. The
+ major part of mim-type must be literal text (or the special token
+ "*"), but the minor part may be a regular expression. (Therefore,
+ "*/.*" matches any MIME type.)
+
+ The MIME types you give to the attachments directive are a kind of
+ pattern. When you use the attachments directive, the patterns you
+ specify are added to a list. When you use unattachments, the pattern
+ is removed from the list. The patterns are not expanded and matched to
+ specific MIME types at this time -- they're just text in a list.
+ They're only matched when actually evaluating a message.
+
+ Some examples might help to illustrate. The examples that are not
+ commented out define the default configuration of the lists.
+## Removing a pattern from a list removes that pattern literally. It
+## does not remove any type matching the pattern.
+##
+## attachments +A */.*
+## attachments +A image/jpeg
+## unattachments +A */.*
+##
+## This leaves "attached" image/jpeg files on the allowed attachments
+## list. It does not remove all items, as you might expect, because the
+## second */.* is not a matching expression at this time.
+##
+## Remember: "unattachments" only undoes what "attachments" has done!
+## It does not trigger any matching on actual messages.
+
+
+## Qualify any MIME part with an "attachment" disposition, EXCEPT for
+## text/x-vcard and application/pgp parts. (PGP parts are already known
+## to mutt, and can be searched for with ~g, ~G, and ~k.)
+##
+## I've added x-pkcs7 to this, since it functions (for S/MIME)
+## analogously to PGP signature attachments. S/MIME isn't supported
+## in a stock mutt build, but we can still treat it specially here.
+##
+attachments +A */.*
+attachments -A text/x-vcard application/pgp.*
+attachments -A application/x-pkcs7-.*
+
+## Discount all MIME parts with an "inline" disposition, unless they're
+## text/plain. (Why inline a text/plain part unless it's external to the
+## message flow?)
+##
+attachments +I text/plain
+
+## These two lines make Mutt qualify MIME containers. (So, for example,
+## a message/rfc822 forward will count as an attachment.) The first
+## line is unnecessary if you already have "attach-allow */.*", of
+## course. These are off by default! The MIME elements contained
+## within a message/* or multipart/* are still examined, even if the

+
+ "attachments ?" will list your current settings in Muttrc format, so
+ that it can be pasted elsewhere.
+
+ Please note that counting attachments may require lots of data be
+ loaded. This may cause noticeable slowdowns over network links
+ depending on the connection speed and message sizes. To fine-tune the
+ behavior on a per-folder or other basis, the $\b$c\bco\bou\bun\bnt\bt_\b_a\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bhm\bme\ben\bnt\bts\bs
+ variable may be used.
+
+7. MIME Lookup
+
+ Usage: mime_lookup_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b[_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ Usage: unmime_lookup_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b[_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bt_\by_\bp_\be_\b _\b._\b._\b._\b]
+
+ Mutt-ng's mime_lookup list specifies a list of mime-types that should
+ not be treated according to their mailcap entry. This option is
+ designed todeal with binary types such as application/octet-stream.
+ When an attachment's mime-type is listed in mime_lookup, then the
+ extension of the filename will be compared to the list of extensions
+ in the mime.types file. The mime-type associated with this extension
+ will then be used to process the attachment according to the rules in
+ the mailcap file and according to any other configuration options
+ (such as auto_view) specified. Common usage would be:
+mime_lookup application/octet-stream application/X-Lotus-Manuscript
+
+ In addition, the unmime_lookup command may be used to disable this
+ feature for any particular mime-type if it had been set, for example,
+ in a global muttrc.

+
+ First of all, mutt-ng contains no security holes included by intention
+ but may contain unknown security holes. As a consequence, please run
+ mutt-ng only with as few permissions as possible.
+
+ Please do not run mutt-ng as the super user.
+
+ When configuring mutt-ng, there're some points to note about secure
+ setups.
+
+ In practice, mutt-ng can be easily made as vulnerable as even the most
+ insecure mail user agents (in their default configuration) just by
+ changing mutt-ng's configuration files: it then can execute arbitrary
+ programs and scripts attached to messages, send out private data on
+ its own, etc. Although this is not believed to the common type of
+ setup, please read this chapter carefully.
+
+1. Passwords
+
+ Although mutt-ng can be told the various passwords for accounts,
+ please never store passwords in configuration files. Besides the fact
+ that the system's operator can always read them, you could forget to
+ replace the actual password with asterisks when reporting a bug or
+ asking for help via, for example, a mailing list so that your mail
+ including your password could be archived by internet search engines,
+ etc. Please never store passwords on disk.
+
+2. Temporary Files
+
+ Mutt-ng uses many temporary files for viewing messages, verifying
+ digital signatures, etc. The $\b$u\bum\bma\bas\bsk\bk variable can be used to change the
+ default permissions of these files. Please only change it if you
+ really know what you are doing. Also, a different location for these
+ files may be desired which can be changed via the $\b$t\btm\bmp\bpd\bdi\bir\br variable.
+
+3. Information Leaks
+
+3.1. Message-ID: headers
+
+ In the default configuration, mutt-ng will leak some information to
+ the outside world when sending messages: the generation of Message-ID:
+ headers includes a step counter which is increased (and rotated) with
+ every message sent. If you'd like to hide this information probably
+ telling others how many mail you sent in which time, you at least need
+ to remove the %P expando from the default setting of the $\b$m\bms\bsg\bgi\bid\bd_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt
+ variable. Please make sure that you really know how local parts of
+ these Message-ID: headers are composed.
+
+3.2. mailto:-style links
+
+ As mutt-ng be can be set up to be the mail client to handle mailto:
+ style links in websites, there're security considerations, too. To
+ keep the old behavior by default, mutt-ng will be strict in
+ interpreting them which means that arbitrary header fields can be
+ embedded in these links which could override existing header fields or
+ attach arbitrary files. This may be problematic if the $\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bt_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs
+ variable is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, i.e. the user doesn't want to see header fields
+ while editing the message.
+
+ For example, following a link like
+
+mailto:joe@host?Attach=~/.gnupg/secring.gpg
+
+ will send out the user's private gnupg keyring to joe@host if the user
+ doesn't follow the information on screen carefully enough.
+
+ When _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt_\bt_\bi_\bn_\bg the $\b$s\bst\btr\bri\bic\bct\bt_\b_m\bma\bai\bil\blt\bto\bo variable, mutt-ng will
+
+ * be less strict when interpreting these links by prepending a
+ X-Mailto- string to all header fields embedded in such a link _\ba_\bn_\bd
+ * turn on the $\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bt_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs variable by force to let the user see
+ all the headers (because they still may leak information.)
+
+4. External applications
+
+ Mutt-ng in many places has to rely on external applications or for
+ convenience supports mechanisms involving external applications.
+
+4.1. mailcap
+
+ One of these is the mailcap mechanism as defined by R\bRf\bfC\bC \b 1\b15\b52\b24\b4. Mutt-ng
+ can be set up to _\ba_\bu_\bt_\bo_\bm_\ba_\bt_\bi_\bc_\ba_\bl_\bl_\by execute any given utility as listed in
+ one of the mailcap files (see the $\b$m\bma\bai\bil\blc\bca\bap\bp_\b_p\bpa\bat\bth\bh variable for details.)
+
+ These utilities may have a variety of security vulnerabilities,
+ including overwriting of arbitrary files, information leaks or other
+ exploitable bugs. These vulnerabilities may go unnoticed by the user,
+ especially when they are called automatically (and without interactive
+ prompting) from the mailcap file(s). When using mutt-ng's autoview
+ mechanism in combination with mailcap files, please be sure to...
+
+ * manually select trustworth applications with a reasonable calling
+ sequence
+ * periodically check the contents of mailcap files, especially after
+ software installations or upgrades
+ * keep the software packages referenced in the mailcap file up to
+ date
+ * leave the $\b$m\bma\bai\bil\blc\bca\bap\bp_\b_s\bsa\ban\bni\bit\bti\biz\bze\be variable in its default state to
+ restrict mailcap expandos to a safe set of characters
+
+4.2. Other
+
+ Besides the mailcap mechanism, mutt-ng uses a number of other external
+ utilities for operation.
+
+ The same security considerations apply for these as for tools involved
+ via mailcap (for example, mutt-ng is vulnerable to Denial of Service
+ Attacks with compressed folders support if the uncompressed mailbox is
+ too large for the disk it is saved to.)
+
+ As already noted, most of these problems are not built in but caused
+ by wrong configuration, so please check your configuration.

+1. Command line options
+
+ Running mutt with no arguments will make Mutt-ng attempt to read your
+ spool mailbox. However, it is possible to read other mailboxes and to
+ send messages from the command line as well.
+
+ _\bT_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b _\b7_\b._\b1_\b._\b _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\b:_\b _\bC_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd_\b _\bL_\bi_\bn_\be_\b _\bO_\bp_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\bs

+
+ Mutt-ng also supports a ``batch'' mode to send prepared messages.
+ Simply redirect input from the file you wish to send. For example,
+
+ mutt -s "data set for run #2" professor@bigschool.edu < ~/run2.dat
+
+ This command will send a message to ``professor@bigschool.edu'' with a
+ subject of ``data set for run #2''. In the body of the message will be
+ the contents of the file ``~/run2.dat''.

+
+ Where EXPR are r\bre\beg\bge\bex\bxp\bp. Special attention has to be made when using
+ regular expressions inside of patterns. Specifically, Mutt-ng's parser
+ for these patterns will strip one level of backslash (\), which is
+ normally used for quoting. If it is your intention to use a backslash
+ in the regular expression, you will need to use two backslashes
+ instead (\\).
+
+ *) The forms <[MAX], >[MIN], [MIN]- and -[MAX] are allowed, too.

+
+ A complete list of current variables follows.
+
+1. $abort_noattach
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: no
+
+ This variable specifies whether to abort sending if no attachment was
+ made but the content references them, i.e. the content matches the
+ regular expression given in $\b$a\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh_\b_r\bre\bem\bmi\bin\bnd\bd_\b_r\bre\beg\bge\bex\bxp\bp. If a match was
+ found and this variable is set to _\by_\be_\bs, message sending will be aborted
+ but the mail will be send nevertheless if set to _\bn_\bo.
+
+ This variable and $\b$a\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh_\b_r\bre\bem\bmi\bin\bnd\bd_\b_r\bre\beg\bge\bex\bxp\bp are intended to remind the
+ user to attach files if the message's text references them.
+
+ See also the $\b$a\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh_\b_r\bre\bem\bmi\bin\bnd\bd_\b_r\bre\beg\bge\bex\bxp\bp variable.
+
+2. $abort_nosubject
+
+ Type: quadoption
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.3\b32\b2.\b. c\bco\bon\bnt\bte\ben\bnt\bt_\b_t\bty\byp\bpe\be
+ Default: ask-yes
- Type: string
- Default: "text/plain"
+ If set to _\by_\be_\bs, when composing messages and no subject is given at the
+ subject prompt, composition will be aborted. If set to _\bn_\bo, composing
+ messages with no subject given at the subject prompt will never be
+ aborted.
- Sets the default Content-Type for the body of newly composed messages.
+3. $abort_unmodified
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.3\b33\b3.\b. c\bco\bop\bpy\by
+ Type: quadoption
- Type: quadoption
- Default: yes
+ Default: yes
- This variable controls whether or not copies of your outgoing messages
- will be saved for later references. Also see ````$record'''',
- ````$save_name'''', ````$force_name'''' and ````fcc-hook''''.
+ If set to _\by_\be_\bs, composition will automatically abort after editing the
+ message body if no changes are made to the file (this check only
+ happens after the _\bf_\bi_\br_\bs_\bt edit of the file). When set to _\bn_\bo, composition
+ will never be aborted.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.3\b34\b4.\b. c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_a\bau\but\bto\bop\bpg\bgp\bp
+4. $agent_string
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ Type: boolean
- This variable controls whether or not mutt may automatically enable
- PGP encryption/signing for messages. See also
- ````$crypt_autoencrypt'''', ````$crypt_replyencrypt'''',
- ````$crypt_autosign'''', ````$crypt_replysign'''' and
- ````$smime_is_default''''.
+ Default: yes
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.3\b35\b5.\b. c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_a\bau\but\bto\bos\bsm\bmi\bim\bme\be
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will add a ``User-Agent:'' header to outgoing
+ messages, indicating which version of Mutt-ng was used for composing
+ them.
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+5. $alias_file
- This variable controls whether or not mutt may automatically enable
- S/MIME encryption/signing for messages. See also
- ````$crypt_autoencrypt'''', ````$crypt_replyencrypt'''',
- ````$crypt_autosign'''', ````$crypt_replysign'''' and
- ````$smime_is_default''''.
+ Type: path
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.3\b36\b6.\b. d\bda\bat\bte\be_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt
+ Default: "~/.muttngrc"
- Type: string
- Default: "!%a, %b %d, %Y at %I:%M:%S%p %Z"
+ The default file in which to save aliases created by the
+ ``c\bcr\bre\bea\bat\bte\be-\b-a\bal\bli\bia\bas\bs'' function.
- This variable controls the format of the date printed by the ``%d''
- sequence in ````$index_format''''. This is passed to the _\bs_\bt_\br_\bf_\bt_\bi_\bm_\be
- call to process the date. See the man page for _\bs_\bt_\br_\bf_\bt_\bi_\bm_\be_\b(_\b3_\b) for the
- proper syntax.
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: Mutt-ng will not automatically source this file; you must
+ explicitly use the ``s\bso\bou\bur\brc\bce\be'' command for it to be executed.
- Unless the first character in the string is a bang (``!''), the month
- and week day names are expanded according to the locale specified in
- the variable ````$locale''''. If the first character in the string is
- a bang, the bang is discarded, and the month and week day names in the
- rest of the string are expanded in the _\bC locale (that is in US
- English).
+6. $alias_format
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.3\b37\b7.\b. d\bde\bef\bfa\bau\bul\blt\bt_\b_h\bho\boo\bok\bk
+ Type: string
- Type: string
- Default: "~f %s !~P | (~P ~C %s)"
+ Default: "%4n %2f %t %-10a %r"
- This variable controls how send-hooks, message-hooks, save-hooks, and
- fcc-hooks will be interpreted if they are specified with only a simple
- regexp, instead of a matching pattern. The hooks are expanded when
- they are declared, so a hook will be interpreted according to the
- value of this variable at the time the hook is declared. The default
- value matches if the message is either from a user matching the
- regular expression given, or if it is from you (if the from address
- matches ``alternates'') and is to or cc'ed to a user matching the
- given regular expression.
+ Specifies the format of the data displayed for the ``alias'' menu. The
+ following printf(3)-style sequences are available:
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.3\b38\b8.\b. d\bde\bel\ble\bet\bte\be
+ %a
+ alias name
- Type: quadoption
- Default: ask-yes
+ %f
+ flags - currently, a "d" for an alias marked for deletion
- Controls whether or not messages are really deleted when closing or
- synchronizing a mailbox. If set to _\by_\be_\bs, messages marked for deleting
- will automatically be purged without prompting. If set to _\bn_\bo,
- messages marked for deletion will be kept in the mailbox.
+ %n
+ index number
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.3\b39\b9.\b. d\bde\bel\ble\bet\bte\be_\b_u\bun\bnt\bta\bag\bg
+ %r
+ address which alias expands to
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ %t
+ character which indicates if the alias is tagged for inclusion
- If this option is _\bs_\be_\bt, mutt will untag messages when marking them for
- deletion. This applies when you either explicitly delete a message,
- or when you save it to another folder.
+7. $allow_8bit
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.4\b40\b0.\b. d\bdi\big\bge\bes\bst\bt_\b_c\bco\bol\bll\bla\bap\bps\bse\be
+ Type: boolean
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ Default: yes
- If this option is _\bs_\be_\bt, mutt's revattach menu will not show the
- subparts of individual messages in a digest. To see these subparts,
- press 'v' on that menu.
+ Controls whether 8-bit data is converted to 7-bit using either
+ quoted-printable or base64 encoding when sending mail.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.4\b41\b1.\b. d\bdi\bis\bsp\bpl\bla\bay\by_\b_f\bfi\bil\blt\bte\ber\br
+8. $allow_ansi
- Type: path
- Default: ""
+ Type: boolean
- When set, specifies a command used to filter messages. When a message
- is viewed it is passed as standard input to ``$display_filter'', and
- the filtered message is read from the standard output.
+ Default: no
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.4\b42\b2.\b. d\bdo\bot\btl\blo\boc\bck\bk_\b_p\bpr\bro\bog\bgr\bra\bam\bm
+ Controls whether ANSI color codes in messages (and color tags in rich
+ text messages) are to be interpreted. Messages containing these codes
+ are rare, but if this option is set, their text will be colored
+ accordingly. Note that this may override your color choices, and even
+ present a security problem, since a message could include a line like
+ ``[-- PGP output follows ..." and give it the same color as your
+ attachment color.
- Type: path
- Default: "/usr/local/bin/mutt_dotlock"
+9. $arrow_cursor
- Contains the path of the mutt_dotlock (8) binary to be used by mutt.
+ Type: boolean
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.4\b43\b3.\b. d\bds\bsn\bn_\b_n\bno\bot\bti\bif\bfy\by
+ Default: no
- Type: string
- Default: ""
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, an arrow (``->'') will be used to indicate the current entry
+ in menus instead of highlighting the whole line. On slow network or
+ modem links this will make response faster because there is less that
+ has to be redrawn on the screen when moving to the next or previous
+ entries in the menu.
- N\bNo\bot\bte\be:\b: you should not enable this unless you are using Sendmail 8.8.x
- or greater.
+10. $ascii_chars
- This variable sets the request for when notification is returned. The
- string consists of a comma separated list (no spaces!) of one or more
- of the following: _\bn_\be_\bv_\be_\br, to never request notification, _\bf_\ba_\bi_\bl_\bu_\br_\be, to
- request notification on transmission failure, _\bd_\be_\bl_\ba_\by, to be notified of
- message delays, _\bs_\bu_\bc_\bc_\be_\bs_\bs, to be notified of successful transmission.
+ Type: boolean
- Example: set dsn_notify="failure,delay"
+ Default: no
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.4\b44\b4.\b. d\bds\bsn\bn_\b_r\bre\bet\btu\bur\brn\bn
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will use plain ASCII characters when displaying thread
+ and attachment trees, instead of the default ACS characters.
- Type: string
- Default: ""
+11. $askbcc
- N\bNo\bot\bte\be:\b: you should not enable this unless you are using Sendmail 8.8.x
- or greater.
+ Type: boolean
- This variable controls how much of your message is returned in DSN
- messages. It may be set to either _\bh_\bd_\br_\bs to return just the message
- header, or _\bf_\bu_\bl_\bl to return the full message.
+ Default: no
- Example: set dsn_return=hdrs
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will prompt you for blind-carbon-copy (Bcc) recipients
+ before editing an outgoing message.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.4\b45\b5.\b. d\bdu\bup\bpl\bli\bic\bca\bat\bte\be_\b_t\bth\bhr\bre\bea\bad\bds\bs
+12. $askcc
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ Type: boolean
- This variable controls whether mutt, when sorting by threads, threads
- messages with the same message-id together. If it is set, it will
- indicate that it thinks they are duplicates of each other with an
- equals sign in the thread diagram.
+ Default: no
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.4\b46\b6.\b. e\bed\bdi\bit\bt_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will prompt you for carbon-copy (Cc) recipients before
+ editing the body of an outgoing message.
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+13. $assumed_charset
- This option allows you to edit the header of your outgoing messages
- along with the body of your message.
+ Type: string
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.4\b47\b7.\b. e\bed\bdi\bit\bto\bor\br
+ Default: "us-ascii"
- Type: path
- Default: ""
+ This variable is a colon-separated list of character encoding schemes
+ for messages without character encoding indication. Header field
+ values and message body content without character encoding indication
+ would be assumed that they are written in one of this list. By
+ default, all the header fields and message body without any charset
+ indication are assumed to be in us-ascii.
- This variable specifies which editor is used by mutt. It defaults to
- the value of the VISUAL, or EDITOR, environment variable, or to the
- string "vi" if neither of those are set.
+ For example, Japanese users might prefer this:
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.4\b48\b8.\b. e\ben\bnc\bco\bod\bde\be_\b_f\bfr\bro\bom\bm
+ set assumed_charset="iso-2022-jp:euc-jp:shift_jis:utf-8"
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ However, only the first content is valid for the message body. This
+ variable is valid only if $\b$s\bst\btr\bri\bic\bct\bt_\b_m\bmi\bim\bme\be is unset.
- When _\bs_\be_\bt, mutt will quoted-printable encode messages when they contain
- the string "From " in the beginning of a line. Useful to avoid the
- tampering certain mail delivery and transport agents tend to do with
- messages.
+14. $attach_format
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.4\b49\b9.\b. e\ben\bnv\bve\bel\blo\bop\bpe\be_\b_f\bfr\bro\bom\bm
+ Type: string
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ Default: "%u%D%I %t%4n %T%.40d%> [%.7m/%.10M, %.6e%?C?, %C?, %s] "
- When _\bs_\be_\bt, mutt will try to derive the message's _\be_\bn_\bv_\be_\bl_\bo_\bp_\be sender from
- the "From:" header. Note that this information is passed to sendmail
- command using the "-f" command line switch, so don't set this option
- if you are using that switch in ``$sendmail'' yourself, or if the
- sendmail on your machine doesn't support that command line switch.
+ This variable describes the format of the ``attachment'' menu. The
+ following printf(3)-style sequences are understood:
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.5\b50\b0.\b. e\bes\bsc\bca\bap\bpe\be
+ %C
+ charset
- Type: string
- Default: "~"
+ %c
+ requires charset conversion (n or c)
- Escape character to use for functions in the builtin editor.
+ %D
+ deleted flag
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.5\b51\b1.\b. f\bfa\bas\bst\bt_\b_r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\by
+ %d
+ description
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ %e
+ MIME Content-Transfer-Encoding: header field
- When set, the initial prompt for recipients and subject are skipped
- when replying to messages, and the initial prompt for subject is
- skipped when forwarding messages.
+ %f
+ filename
- N\bNo\bot\bte\be:\b: this variable has no effect when the ````$autoedit'''' variable
- is set.
+ %I
+ MIME Content-Disposition: header field (I=inline, A=attachment)
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.5\b52\b2.\b. f\bfc\bcc\bc_\b_a\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh
+ %m
+ major MIME type
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ %M
+ MIME subtype
- This variable controls whether or not attachments on outgoing messages
- are saved along with the main body of your message.
+ %n
+ attachment number
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.5\b53\b3.\b. f\bfc\bcc\bc_\b_c\bcl\ble\bea\bar\br
+ %Q
+ "Q", if MIME part qualifies for attachment counting
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ %s
+ size
+
+ %t
+ tagged flag
+
+ %T
+ graphic tree characters
+
+ %u
+ unlink (=to delete) flag
+
+ %X
+ number of qualifying MIME parts in this part and its children
+
+ %>X
+ right justify the rest of the string and pad with character "X"
+
+ %|X
+ pad to the end of the line with character "X"
+
+15. $attach_remind_regexp
+
+ Type: regular expression
+
+ Default: "attach"
+
+ If this variable is non-empty, muttng will scan a message's contents
+ before sending for this regular expression. If it is found, it will
+ ask for what to do depending on the setting of $\b$a\bab\bbo\bor\brt\bt_\b_n\bno\boa\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh.
+
+ This variable and $\b$a\bab\bbo\bor\brt\bt_\b_n\bno\boa\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh are intended to remind the user to
+ attach files if the message's text references them.
+
+16. $attach_sep
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "\n"
+
+ The separator to add between attachments when operating (saving,
+ printing, piping, etc) on a list of tagged attachments.
+
+17. $attach_split
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ If this variable is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, when operating (saving, printing, piping,
+ etc) on a list of tagged attachments, Mutt-ng will concatenate the
+ attachments and will operate on them as a single attachment. The
+ ``$\b$a\bat\btt\bta\bac\bch\bh_\b_s\bse\bep\bp'' separator is added after each attachment. When _\bs_\be_\bt,
+ Mutt-ng will operate on the attachments one by one.
+
+18. $attribution
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "On %d, %n wrote:"
+
+ This is the string that will precede a message which has been included
+ in a reply. For a full listing of defined printf(3)-like sequences see
+ the section on ``$\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt''.
+
+19. $auto_tag
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, functions in the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx menu which affect a message will be
+ applied to all tagged messages (if there are any). When unset, you
+ must first use the ``tag-prefix'' function (default: ";") to make the
+ next function apply to all tagged messages.
+
+20. $autoedit
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt along with ``$\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bt_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs'', Mutt-ng will skip the initial
+ send-menu and allow you to immediately begin editing the body of your
+ message. The send-menu may still be accessed once you have finished
+ editing the body of your message.
+
+ Also see ``$\b$f\bfa\bas\bst\bt_\b_r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\by''.
+
+21. $beep
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When this variable is _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will beep when an error occurs.
+
+22. $beep_new
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When this variable is _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will beep whenever it prints a
+ message notifying you of new mail. This is independent of the setting
+ of the ``$\b$b\bbe\bee\bep\bp'' variable.
+
+23. $bounce
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: ask-yes
+
+ Controls whether you will be asked to confirm bouncing messages. If
+ set to _\by_\be_\bs you don't get asked if you want to bounce a message.
+ Setting this variable to _\bn_\bo is not generally useful, and thus not
+ recommended, because you are unable to bounce messages.
+
+24. $bounce_delivered
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When this variable is _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will include Delivered-To: header
+ fields when bouncing messages. Postfix users may wish to _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt this
+ variable.
+
+25. $braille_friendly
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When this variable is set, mutt will place the cursor at the beginning
+ of the current line in menus, even when the arrow_cursor variable is
+ unset, making it easier for blind persons using Braille displays to
+ follow these menus. The option is disabled by default because many
+ visual terminals don't permit making the cursor invisible.
+
+26. $certificate_file
+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: "~/.mutt_certificates"
+
+ Availability: SSL or GNUTLS
+
+ This variable specifies the file where the certificates you trust are
+ saved. When an unknown certificate is encountered, you are asked if
+ you accept it or not. If you accept it, the certificate can also be
+ saved in this file and further connections are automatically accepted.
+
+ You can also manually add CA certificates in this file. Any server
+ certificate that is signed with one of these CA certificates are also
+ automatically accepted.
+
+ Example: set certificate_file=~/.muttng/certificates
+
+27. $charset
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Character set your terminal uses to display and enter textual data.
+
+28. $check_new
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: this option only affects _\bm_\ba_\bi_\bl_\bd_\bi_\br and _\bM_\bH style mailboxes.
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will check for new mail delivered while the mailbox
+ is open. Especially with MH mailboxes, this operation can take quite
+ some time since it involves scanning the directory and checking each
+ file to see if it has already been looked at. If it's _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, no check
+ for new mail is performed while the mailbox is open.
+
+29. $collapse_unread
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will not collapse a thread if it contains any
+ unread messages.
+
+30. $compose_format
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "-- Mutt-ng: Compose [Approx. msg size: %l Atts: %a]%>-"
+
+ Controls the format of the status line displayed in the ``compose''
+ menu. This string is similar to ``$\b$s\bst\bta\bat\btu\bus\bs_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt'', but has its own
+ set of printf(3)-like sequences:
+
+ %a
+ total number of attachments
+
+ %h
+ local hostname
+
+ %l
+ approximate size (in bytes) of the current message
+
+ %v
+ Mutt-ng version string
+
+ See the text describing the ``$\b$s\bst\bta\bat\btu\bus\bs_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt'' option for more
+ information on how to set ``$\b$c\bco\bom\bmp\bpo\bos\bse\be_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt''.
+
+31. $config_charset
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ When defined, Mutt-ng will recode commands in rc files from this
+ encoding.
+
+32. $confirmappend
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will prompt for confirmation when appending messages
+ to an existing mailbox.
+
+33. $confirmcreate
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will prompt for confirmation when saving messages to
+ a mailbox which does not yet exist before creating it.
+
+34. $connect_timeout
+
+ Type: number
+
+ Default: 30
+
+ Causes Mutt-ng to timeout a network connection (for IMAP or POP) after
+ this many seconds if the connection is not able to be established. A
+ negative value causes Mutt-ng to wait indefinitely for the connection
+ to succeed.
+
+35. $content_type
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "text/plain"
+
+ Sets the default Content-Type: header field for the body of newly
+ composed messages.
+
+36. $copy
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ This variable controls whether or not copies of your outgoing messages
+ will be saved for later references. Also see ``$\b$r\bre\bec\bco\bor\brd\bd'',
+ ``$\b$s\bsa\bav\bve\be_\b_n\bna\bam\bme\be'', ``$\b$f\bfo\bor\brc\bce\be_\b_n\bna\bam\bme\be'' and `` \b f\bfc\bcc\bc-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk''.
+
+37. $count_attachments
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ This variable controls whether attachments should be counted for
+ $index_format and its %X expando or not. As for scoring, this variable
+ can be used to selectively turn counting on or off instead of removing
+ and re-adding rules as prefered because counting requires full loading
+ of messages.
+
+ If it is _\bs_\be_\bt and rules were defined via the attachments and/or
+ unattachments commands, counting will be done. If it is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt no
+ counting will be done regardless whether rules were defined or not.
+
+38. $crypt_autoencrypt
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ Setting this variable will cause Mutt-ng to always attempt to PGP
+ encrypt outgoing messages. This is probably only useful in connection
+ to the _\bs_\be_\bn_\bd_\b-_\bh_\bo_\bo_\bk command. It can be overridden by use of the _\bp_\bg_\bp_\b-_\bm_\be_\bn_\bu,
+ when encryption is not required or signing is requested as well. If
+ ``$\b$s\bsm\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_i\bis\bs_\b_d\bde\bef\bfa\bau\bul\blt\bt'' is _\bs_\be_\bt, then OpenSSL is used instead to create
+ S/MIME messages and settings can be overridden by use of the
+ _\bs_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bm_\be_\bn_\bu. (Crypto only)
+
+39. $crypt_autopgp
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ This variable controls whether or not Mutt-ng may automatically enable
+ PGP encryption/signing for messages. See also ``$\b$c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_a\bau\but\bto\boe\ben\bnc\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt'',
+ ``$\b$c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\bye\ben\bnc\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt'', ``$\b$c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_a\bau\but\bto\bos\bsi\big\bgn\bn'', ``$\b$c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\bys\bsi\big\bgn\bn'' and
+ ``$\b$s\bsm\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_i\bis\bs_\b_d\bde\bef\bfa\bau\bul\blt\bt''.
+
+40. $crypt_autosign
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ Setting this variable will cause Mutt-ng to always attempt to
+ cryptographically sign outgoing messages. This can be overridden by
+ use of the _\bp_\bg_\bp_\b-_\bm_\be_\bn_\bu, when signing is not required or encryption is
+ requested as well. If ``$\b$s\bsm\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_i\bis\bs_\b_d\bde\bef\bfa\bau\bul\blt\bt'' is _\bs_\be_\bt, then OpenSSL is
+ used instead to create S/MIME messages and settings can be overridden
+ by use of the _\bs_\bm_\bi_\bm_\be_\b-_\bm_\be_\bn_\bu. (Crypto only)
+
+41. $crypt_autosmime
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ This variable controls whether or not Mutt-ng may automatically enable
+ S/MIME encryption/signing for messages. See also
+ ``$\b$c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_a\bau\but\bto\boe\ben\bnc\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt'', ``$\b$c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\bye\ben\bnc\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt'', ``$\b$c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_a\bau\but\bto\bos\bsi\big\bgn\bn'',
+ ``$\b$c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\bys\bsi\big\bgn\bn'' and ``$\b$s\bsm\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_i\bis\bs_\b_d\bde\bef\bfa\bau\bul\blt\bt''.
+
+42. $crypt_replyencrypt
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, automatically PGP or OpenSSL encrypt replies to messages which
+ are encrypted. (Crypto only)
+
+43. $crypt_replysign
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, automatically PGP or OpenSSL sign replies to messages which
+ are signed.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: this does not work on messages that are encrypted _\ba_\bn_\bd signed!
+ (Crypto only)
+
+44. $crypt_replysignencrypted
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, automatically PGP or OpenSSL sign replies to messages which
+ are encrypted. This makes sense in combination with
+ ``$\b$c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\bye\ben\bnc\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt'', because it allows you to sign all messages
+ which are automatically encrypted. This works around the problem noted
+ in ``$\b$c\bcr\bry\byp\bpt\bt_\b_r\bre\bep\bpl\bly\bys\bsi\big\bgn\bn'', that Mutt-ng is not able to find out whether
+ an encrypted message is also signed. (Crypto only)
+
+45. $crypt_timestamp
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will include a time stamp in the lines surrounding PGP
+ or S/MIME output, so spoofing such lines is more difficult. If you are
+ using colors to mark these lines, and rely on these, you may _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt
+ this setting. (Crypto only)
+
+46. $crypt_use_gpgme
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ This variable controls the use the GPGME enabled crypto backends. If
+ it is _\bs_\be_\bt and Mutt-ng was build with gpgme support, the gpgme code for
+ S/MIME and PGP will be used instead of the classic code.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be: You need to use this option in your .muttngrc configuration file
+ as it won't have any effect when used interactively.
+
+47. $crypt_verify_sig
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ If ``_\by_\be_\bs'', always attempt to verify PGP or S/MIME signatures. If
+ ``_\ba_\bs_\bk'', ask whether or not to verify the signature. If ``_\bn_\bo'', never
+ attempt to verify cryptographic signatures. (Crypto only)
+
+48. $date_format
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "!%a, %b %d, %Y at %I:%M:%S%p %Z"
+
+ This variable controls the format of the date printed by the ``%d''
+ sequence in ``$\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt''. This is passed to strftime(3) to
+ process the date.
+
+ Unless the first character in the string is a bang (``!''), the month
+ and week day names are expanded according to the locale specified in
+ the variable ``$\b$l\blo\boc\bca\bal\ble\be''. If the first character in the string is a
+ bang, the bang is discarded, and the month and week day names in the
+ rest of the string are expanded in the _\bC locale (that is in US
+ English).
+
+49. $debug_level
+
+ Type: number
+
+ Default: 1
+
+ Availability: debug
+
+ This variable specifies the current debug level and may be used to
+ increase or decrease the verbosity level during runtime. It overrides
+ the level given with the -d command line option.
+
+ Currently, this number must be >= 0 and <= 5 and muttng must be
+ started with -d to enable debugging at all; enabling at runtime is not
+ possible.
+
+50. $default_hook
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "~f %s !~P | (~P ~C %s)"
+
+ This variable controls how send-hooks, message-hooks, save-hooks, and
+ fcc-hooks will be interpreted if they are specified with only a simple
+ regexp, instead of a matching pattern. The hooks are expanded when
+ they are declared, so a hook will be interpreted according to the
+ value of this variable at the time the hook is declared. The default
+ value matches if the message is either from a user matching the
+ regular expression given, or if it is from you (if the from address
+ matches ``alternates'') and is to or cc'ed to a user matching the
+ given regular expression.
+
+51. $delete
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: ask-yes
+
+ Controls whether or not messages are really deleted when closing or
+ synchronizing a mailbox. If set to _\by_\be_\bs, messages marked for deleting
+ will automatically be purged without prompting. If set to _\bn_\bo, messages
+ marked for deletion will be kept in the mailbox.
+
+52. $delete_space
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When sending messages with format=flowed by _\bs_\be_\bt_\bt_\bi_\bn_\bg the $\b$t\bte\bex\bxt\bt_\b_f\bfl\blo\bow\bwe\bed\bd
+ variable, this variable specifies whether to also set the DelSp
+ parameter to yes. If this is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, no additional parameter will be
+ send as a value of no already is the default behavior.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: this variable only has an effect on _\bo_\bu_\bt_\bg_\bo_\bi_\bn_\bg messages (if
+ $\b$t\bte\bex\bxt\bt_\b_f\bfl\blo\bow\bwe\bed\bd is _\bs_\be_\bt) but not on incomming.
+
+53. $delete_untag
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ If this option is _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will untag messages when marking them
+ for deletion. This applies when you either explicitly delete a
+ message, or when you save it to another folder.
+
+54. $digest_collapse
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ If this option is _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng's received-attachments menu will not
+ show the subparts of individual messages in a multipart/digest. To see
+ these subparts, press 'v' on that menu.
+
+55. $display_filter
+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, specifies a command used to filter messages. When a message
+ is viewed it is passed as standard input to $\b$d\bdi\bis\bsp\bpl\bla\bay\by_\b_f\bfi\bil\blt\bte\ber\br, and the
+ filtered message is read from the standard output.
+
+56. $dotlock_program
+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: "$muttng_bindir/muttng_dotlock"
+
+ Availability: Standalone and Dotlock
+
+ Contains the path of the muttng_dotlock(1) binary to be used by
+ Mutt-ng.
+
+57. $dsn_notify
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: you should not enable this unless you are using Sendmail 8.8.x
+ or greater or in connection with the SMTP support via libESMTP.
+
+ This variable sets the request for when notification is returned. The
+ string consists of a comma separated list (no spaces!) of one or more
+ of the following: _\bn_\be_\bv_\be_\br, to never request notification, _\bf_\ba_\bi_\bl_\bu_\br_\be, to
+ request notification on transmission failure, _\bd_\be_\bl_\ba_\by, to be notified of
+ message delays, _\bs_\bu_\bc_\bc_\be_\bs_\bs, to be notified of successful transmission.
+
+ Example: set dsn_notify="failure,delay"
+
+58. $dsn_return
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: you should not enable this unless you are using Sendmail 8.8.x
+ or greater or in connection with the SMTP support via libESMTP.
+
+ This variable controls how much of your message is returned in DSN
+ messages. It may be set to either _\bh_\bd_\br_\bs to return just the message
+ header, or _\bf_\bu_\bl_\bl to return the full message.
+
+ Example: set dsn_return=hdrs
+
+59. $duplicate_threads
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ This variable controls whether Mutt-ng, when sorting by threads,
+ threads messages with the same Message-ID: header field together. If
+ it is _\bs_\be_\bt, it will indicate that it thinks they are duplicates of each
+ other with an equals sign in the thread diagram.
+
+60. $edit_headers
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ This option allows you to edit the header of your outgoing messages
+ along with the body of your message.
+
+ Which empty header fields to show is controlled by the $\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bto\bor\br_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs
+ option.
+
+61. $editor
+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ This variable specifies which editor is used by Mutt-ng. It defaults
+ to the value of the $VISUAL, or $EDITOR, environment variable, or to
+ the string "vi" if neither of those are set.
+
+62. $editor_headers
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "From: To: Cc: Bcc: Subject: Reply-To: Newsgroups:
+ Followup-To: X-Comment-To:"
+
+ If $\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bt_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs is _\bs_\be_\bt, this space-separated list specifies which
+ _\bn_\bo_\bn_\b-_\be_\bm_\bp_\bt_\by header fields to edit in addition to user-defined headers.
+
+ Note: if $\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bt_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs had to be turned on by force because
+ $\b$s\bst\btr\bri\bic\bct\bt_\b_m\bma\bai\bil\blt\bto\bo is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, this option has no effect.
+
+63. $encode_from
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will quoted-printable encode messages when they
+ contain the string ``From '' (note the trailing space) in the
+ beginning of a line. Useful to avoid the tampering certain mail
+ delivery and transport agents tend to do with messages.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: as Mutt-ng currently violates RfC3676 defining format=flowed,
+ it's <em/strongly/ advised to _\bs_\be_\bt this option although discouraged by
+ the standard. Alternatively, you must take care of space-stuffing
+ <tt/From / lines (with a trailing space) yourself.
+
+64. $entropy_file
+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Availability: SSL
+
+ The file which includes random data that is used to initialize SSL
+ library functions.
+
+65. $envelope_from_address
+
+ Type: e-mail address
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Manually sets the _\be_\bn_\bv_\be_\bl_\bo_\bp_\be sender for outgoing messages. This value is
+ ignored if ``$\b$u\bus\bse\be_\b_e\ben\bnv\bve\bel\blo\bop\bpe\be_\b_f\bfr\bro\bom\bm'' is unset.
+
+66. $escape
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "~"
+
+ Escape character to use for functions in the builtin editor.
+
+67. $fast_reply
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, the initial prompt for recipients and subject are skipped
+ when replying to messages, and the initial prompt for subject is
+ skipped when forwarding messages.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: this variable has no effect when the ``$\b$a\bau\but\bto\boe\bed\bdi\bit\bt'' variable is
+ _\bs_\be_\bt.
+
+68. $fcc_attach
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ This variable controls whether or not attachments on outgoing messages
+ are saved along with the main body of your message.
+
+69. $fcc_clear
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When this variable is _\bs_\be_\bt, FCCs will be stored unencrypted and
+ unsigned, even when the actual message is encrypted and/or signed.
+ (PGP only)
+
+70. $file_charset
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ This variable is a colon-separated list of character encoding schemes
+ for text file attatchments. If _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, $\b$c\bch\bha\bar\brs\bse\bet\bt value will be used
+ instead. For example, the following configuration would work for
+ Japanese text handling:
+
+ set file_charset="iso-2022-jp:euc-jp:shift_jis:utf-8"
+
+ Note: ``iso-2022-*'' must be put at the head of the value as shown
+ above if included.
+
+71. $folder
+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: "~/Mail"
+
+ Specifies the default location of your mailboxes. A ``+'' or ``='' at
+ the beginning of a pathname will be expanded to the value of this
+ variable. Note that if you change this variable from the default value
+ you need to make sure that the assignment occurs _\bb_\be_\bf_\bo_\br_\be you use ``+''
+ or ``='' for any other variables since expansion takes place during
+ the ``set'' command.
+
+72. $folder_format
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "%2C %t %N %F %2l %-8.8u %-8.8g %8s %d %f"
+
+ This variable allows you to customize the file browser display to your
+ personal taste. This string is similar to ``$\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt'', but has
+ its own set of printf(3)-like sequences:
+
+ %C
+ current file number
+
+ %d
+ date/time folder was last modified
+
+ %f
+ filename
+
+ %F
+ file permissions
+
+ %g
+ group name (or numeric gid, if missing)
+
+ %l
+ number of hard links
+
+ %N
+ N if folder has new mail, blank otherwise
+
+ %s
+ size in bytes
+
+ %t
+ * if the file is tagged, blank otherwise
+
+ %u
+ owner name (or numeric uid, if missing)
+
+ %>X
+ right justify the rest of the string and pad with character "X"
+
+ %|X
+ pad to the end of the line with character "X"
+
+73. $followup_to
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ Controls whether or not the Mail-Followup-To: header field is
+ generated when sending mail. When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will generate this
+ field when you are replying to a known mailing list, specified with
+ the ``subscribe'' or ``l\bli\bis\bst\bts\bs'' commands or detected by common mailing
+ list headers.
+
+ This field has two purposes. First, preventing you from receiving
+ duplicate copies of replies to messages which you send to mailing
+ lists. Second, ensuring that you do get a reply separately for any
+ messages sent to known lists to which you are not subscribed. The
+ header will contain only the list's address for subscribed lists, and
+ both the list address and your own email address for unsubscribed
+ lists. Without this header, a group reply to your message sent to a
+ subscribed list will be sent to both the list and your address,
+ resulting in two copies of the same email for you.
+
+74. $force_buffy_check
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, it causes Mutt-ng to check for new mail when the _\bb_\bu_\bf_\bf_\by_\b-_\bl_\bi_\bs_\bt
+ command is invoked. When _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, _\bb_\bu_\bf_\bf_\by_\b__\bl_\bi_\bs_\bt will just list all
+ mailboxes which are already known to have new mail.
+
+ Also see the following variables: ``$\b$t\bti\bim\bme\beo\bou\but\bt'', ``$\b$m\bma\bai\bil\bl_\b_c\bch\bhe\bec\bck\bk'' and
+ ``$\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_m\bma\bai\bil\bl_\b_c\bch\bhe\bec\bck\bk''.
+
+75. $force_list_reply
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: ask-no
+
+ This variable controls what effect ordinary replies have on mailing
+ list messages: if _\bs_\be_\bt, a normal reply will be interpreted as
+ list-reply while if it's _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt the reply functions work as usual.
+
+76. $force_name
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ This variable is similar to ``$\b$s\bsa\bav\bve\be_\b_n\bna\bam\bme\be'', except that Mutt-ng will
+ store a copy of your outgoing message by the username of the address
+ you are sending to even if that mailbox does not exist.
+
+ Also see the ``$\b$r\bre\bec\bco\bor\brd\bd'' variable.
+
+77. $forward_decode
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ Controls the decoding of complex MIME messages into text/plain when
+ forwarding a message. The message header is also RFC2047 decoded. This
+ variable is only used, if ``$\b$m\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bd'' is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, otherwise
+ ``$\b$m\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bd_\b_d\bde\bec\bco\bod\bde\be'' is used instead.
+
+78. $forward_decrypt
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ Controls the handling of encrypted messages when forwarding a message.
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, the outer layer of encryption is stripped off. This variable
+ is only used if ``$\b$m\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bd'' is _\bs_\be_\bt and ``$\b$m\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bd_\b_d\bde\bec\bco\bod\bde\be''
+ is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt. (PGP only)
+
+79. $forward_edit
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ This quadoption controls whether or not the user is automatically
+ placed in the editor when forwarding messages. For those who always
+ want to forward with no modification, use a setting of _\bn_\bo.
+
+80. $forward_format
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "[%a: %s]"
+
+ This variable controls the default subject when forwarding a message.
+ It uses the same format sequences as the ``$\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt'' variable.
+
+81. $forward_quote
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt forwarded messages included in the main body of the message
+ (when ``$\b$m\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bd'' is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt) will be quoted using
+ ``$\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\ben\bnt\bt_\b_s\bst\btr\bri\bin\bng\bg''.
+
+82. $from
+
+ Type: e-mail address
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ This variable contains a default from address. It can be overridden
+ using my_hdr (including from send-hooks) and ``$\b$r\bre\bev\bve\ber\brs\bse\be_\b_n\bna\bam\bme\be''. This
+ variable is ignored if ``$\b$u\bus\bse\be_\b_f\bfr\bro\bom\bm'' is unset.
+
+ E.g. you can use send-hook Mutt-ng-devel@lists.berlios.de 'my_hdr
+ From: Foo Bar <foo@bar.fb>' when replying to the Mutt-ng developer's
+ mailing list and Mutt-ng takes this email address.
+
+ Defaults to the contents of the environment variable $EMAIL.
+
+83. $gecos_mask
+
+ Type: regular expression
+
+ Default: "^[^,]*"
+
+ A regular expression used by Mutt-ng to parse the GECOS field of a
+ password entry when expanding the alias. By default the regular
+ expression is set to ``^[^,]*'' which will return the string up to the
+ first ``,'' encountered. If the GECOS field contains a string like
+ "lastname, firstname" then you should do: set gecos_mask=".*".
+
+ This can be useful if you see the following behavior: you address a
+ e-mail to user ID stevef whose full name is Steve Franklin. If Mutt-ng
+ expands stevef to ``Franklin'' stevef@foo.bar then you should set the
+ gecos_mask to a regular expression that will match the whole name so
+ Mutt-ng will expand ``Franklin'' to ``Franklin, Steve''.
+
+84. $hdrs
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, the header fields normally added by the ``m\bmy\by_\b_h\bhd\bdr\br'' command
+ are not created. This variable _\bm_\bu_\bs_\bt be _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt before composing a new
+ message or replying in order to take effect. If _\bs_\be_\bt, the user defined
+ header fields are added to every new message.
+
+85. $header
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, this variable causes Mutt-ng to include the header of the
+ message you are replying to into the edit buffer. The ``$\b$w\bwe\bee\bed\bd''
+ setting applies.
+
+86. $header_cache
+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Availability: Header Cache
+
+ The $\b$h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\br_\b_c\bca\bac\bch\bhe\be variable points to the header cache database.
+
+ If $\b$h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\br_\b_c\bca\bac\bch\bhe\be points to a directory it will contain a header cache
+ database per folder. If $\b$h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\br_\b_c\bca\bac\bch\bhe\be points to a file that file will
+ be a single global header cache. By default it is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt so no header
+ caching will be used.
+
+87. $header_cache_compress
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ If enabled the header cache will be compressed. So only one fifth of
+ the usual diskspace is used, but the uncompression can result in a
+ slower open of the cached folder.
+
+88. $help
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, help lines describing the bindings for the major functions
+ provided by each menu are displayed on the first line of the screen.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: The binding will not be displayed correctly if the function is
+ bound to a sequence rather than a single keystroke. Also, the help
+ line may not be updated if a binding is changed while Mutt-ng is
+ running. Since this variable is primarily aimed at new users, neither
+ of these should present a major problem.
+
+89. $hidden_host
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will skip the host name part of ``$\b$h\bho\bos\bst\btn\bna\bam\bme\be''
+ variable when adding the domain part to addresses. This variable does
+ not affect the generation of Message-ID: header fields, and it will
+ not lead to the cut-off of first-level domains.
+
+90. $hide_limited
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will not show the presence of messages that are
+ hidden by limiting, in the thread tree.
+
+91. $hide_missing
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will not show the presence of missing messages in
+ the thread tree.
+
+92. $hide_thread_subject
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will not show the subject of messages in the thread
+ tree that have the same subject as their parent or closest previously
+ displayed sibling.
+
+93. $hide_top_limited
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will not show the presence of messages that are
+ hidden by limiting, at the top of threads in the thread tree. Note
+ that when $\b$h\bhi\bid\bde\be_\b_m\bmi\bis\bss\bsi\bin\bng\bg is _\bs_\be_\bt, this option will have no effect.
+
+94. $hide_top_missing
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will not show the presence of missing messages at
+ the top of threads in the thread tree. Note that when $\b$h\bhi\bid\bde\be_\b_l\bli\bim\bmi\bit\bte\bed\bd is
+ _\bs_\be_\bt, this option will have no effect.
+
+95. $history
+
+ Type: number
+
+ Default: 10
+
+ This variable controls the size (in number of strings remembered) of
+ the string history buffer. The buffer is cleared each time the
+ variable is changed.
+
+96. $honor_followup_to
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ This variable controls whether or not a Mail-Followup-To: header field
+ is honored when group-replying to a message.
+
+97. $hostname
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Specifies the hostname to use after the ``@'' in local e-mail
+ addresses and during generation of Message-ID: headers.
+
+ Please be sure to really know what you are doing when changing this
+ variable to configure a custom domain part of Message-IDs.
+
+98. $ignore_list_reply_to
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ Affects the behaviour of the _\br_\be_\bp_\bl_\by function when replying to messages
+ from mailing lists. When _\bs_\be_\bt, if the ``Reply-To:'' header field is set
+ to the same value as the ``To:'' header field, Mutt-ng assumes that
+ the ``Reply-To:'' header field was set by the mailing list to automate
+ responses to the list, and will ignore this field. To direct a
+ response to the mailing list when this option is set, use the
+ _\bl_\bi_\bs_\bt_\b-_\br_\be_\bp_\bl_\by function; _\bg_\br_\bo_\bu_\bp_\b-_\br_\be_\bp_\bl_\by will reply to both the sender and the
+ list. Remember: This option works only for mailing lists which are
+ explicitly set in your muttngrc configuration file.
+
+99. $imap_authenticators
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ This is a colon-delimited list of authentication methods Mutt-ng may
+ attempt to use to log in to an IMAP server, in the order Mutt-ng
+ should try them. Authentication methods are either ``login'' or the
+ right side of an IMAP ``AUTH='' capability string, e.g.
+ ``digest-md5'', ``gssapi'' or ``cram-md5''. This parameter is
+ case-insensitive.
+
+ If this parameter is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt (the default) Mutt-ng will try all
+ available methods, in order from most-secure to least-secure.
+
+ Example: set imap_authenticators="gssapi:cram-md5:login"
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: Mutt-ng will only fall back to other authentication methods if
+ the previous methods are unavailable. If a method is available but
+ authentication fails, Mutt-ng will not connect to the IMAP server.
+
+100. $imap_check_subscribed
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, mutt will fetch the set of subscribed folders from your
+ server on connection, and add them to the set of mailboxes it polls
+ for new mail. See also the ``m\bma\bai\bil\blb\bbo\box\bxe\bes\bs'' command.
+
+101. $imap_delim_chars
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "/."
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ This contains the list of characters which you would like to treat as
+ folder separators for displaying IMAP paths. In particular it helps in
+ using the '=' shortcut for your $\b$f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br variable.
+
+102. $imap_headers
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ Mutt-ng requests these header fields in addition to the default
+ headers (``DATE FROM SUBJECT TO CC MESSAGE-ID REFERENCES CONTENT-TYPE
+ CONTENT-DESCRIPTION IN-REPLY-TO REPLY-TO LINES X-LABEL'') from IMAP
+ servers before displaying the ``index'' menu. You may want to add more
+ headers for spam detection.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: This is a space separated list.
+
+103. $imap_home_namespace
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ You normally want to see your personal folders alongside your INBOX in
+ the IMAP browser. If you see something else, you may set this variable
+ to the IMAP path to your folders.
+
+104. $imap_keepalive
+
+ Type: number
+
+ Default: 900
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ This variable specifies the maximum amount of time in seconds that
+ Mutt-ng will wait before polling open IMAP connections, to prevent the
+ server from closing them before Mutt-ng has finished with them.
+
+ The default is well within the RFC-specified minimum amount of time
+ (30 minutes) before a server is allowed to do this, but in practice
+ the RFC does get violated every now and then.
+
+ Reduce this number if you find yourself getting disconnected from your
+ IMAP server due to inactivity.
+
+105. $imap_list_subscribed
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ This variable configures whether IMAP folder browsing will look for
+ only subscribed folders or all folders. This can be toggled in the
+ IMAP browser with the _\bt_\bo_\bg_\bg_\bl_\be_\b-_\bs_\bu_\bb_\bs_\bc_\br_\bi_\bb_\be_\bd function.
+
+106. $imap_login
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ Your login name on the IMAP server.
+
+ This variable defaults to the value of ``$\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_u\bus\bse\ber\br.''
+
+107. $imap_mail_check
+
+ Type: number
+
+ Default: 300
+
+ This variable configures how often (in seconds) Mutt-ng should look
+ for new mail in IMAP folders. This is split from the ``m\bma\bai\bil\bl_\b_c\bch\bhe\bec\bck\bk''
+ variable to generate less traffic and get more accurate information
+ for local folders.
+
+108. $imap_pass
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ Specifies the password for your IMAP account. If _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will
+ prompt you for your password when you invoke the fetch-mail function.
+
+ _\bW_\ba_\br_\bn_\bi_\bn_\bg: you should only use this option when you are on a fairly
+ secure machine, because the superuser can read your configuration even
+ if you are the only one who can read the file.
+
+109. $imap_passive
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will not open new IMAP connections to check for new
+ mail. Mutt-ng will only check for new mail over existing IMAP
+ connections. This is useful if you don't want to be prompted to
+ user/password pairs on Mutt-ng invocation, or if opening the
+ connection is slow.
+
+110. $imap_peek
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will avoid implicitly marking your mail as read
+ whenever you fetch a message from the server. This is generally a good
+ thing, but can make closing an IMAP folder somewhat slower. This
+ option exists to appease speed freaks.
+
+111. $imap_reconnect
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: ask-yes
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ Controls whether or not Mutt-ng will try to reconnect to IMAP server
+ when the connection is lost.
+
+112. $imap_servernoise
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will display warning messages from the IMAP server
+ as error messages. Since these messages are often harmless, or
+ generated due to configuration problems on the server which are out of
+ the users' hands, you may wish to suppress them at some point.
+
+113. $imap_user
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ Availability: IMAP
+
+ The name of the user whose mail you intend to access on the IMAP
+ server.
+
+ This variable defaults to your user name on the local machine.
+
+114. $implicit_autoview
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will look for a mailcap entry with the
+ ``copiousoutput'' flag set for _\be_\bv_\be_\br_\by MIME attachment it doesn't have
+ an internal viewer defined for. If such an entry is found, Mutt-ng
+ will use the viewer defined in that entry to convert the body part to
+ text form.
+
+115. $include
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: ask-yes
+
+ Controls whether or not a copy of the message(s) you are replying to
+ is included in your reply.
+
+116. $include_onlyfirst
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ Controls whether or not Mutt-ng includes only the first attachment of
+ the message you are replying.
+
+117. $indent_string
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "> "
+
+ Specifies the string to prepend to each line of text quoted in a
+ message to which you are replying. You are strongly encouraged not to
+ change this value, as it tends to agitate the more fanatical netizens.
+
+118. $index_format
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%?l?%4l&%4c?) %s"
+
+ This variable allows you to customize the message index display to
+ your personal taste.
+
+ ``Format strings'' are similar to the strings used in the ``C''
+ function printf(3) to format output (see the man page for more
+ detail). The following sequences are defined in Mutt-ng:
+
+ %a
+ address of the author
+
+ %A
+ reply-to address (if present; otherwise: address of author)
+
+ %b
+ filename of the original message folder (think mailBox)

+ number of lines in the message (does not work with maildir, mh,
+ and possibly IMAP folders)
+

+ from preceding message's `x-label'.
+
+ %Z
+ message status flags
+
+ %{fmt}
+ the date and time of the message is converted to sender's time

+
+ %[fmt]
+ the date and time of the message is converted to the local time
+ zone, and ``fmt'' is expanded by the library function
+ ``strftime''; a leading bang disables locales
+
+ %(fmt)
+ the local date and time when the message was received. ``fmt''
+ is expanded by the library function ``strftime''; a leading

+
+ See also: ``$\b$t\bto\bo_\b_c\bch\bha\bar\brs\bs''.
+
+119. $ispell
+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: "ispell"
+
+ How to invoke ispell (GNU's spell-checking software).
+
+120. $keep_flagged
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, read messages marked as flagged will not be moved from your
+ spool mailbox to your ``$\b$m\bmb\bbo\box\bx'' mailbox, or as a result of a
+ ``m\bmb\bbo\box\bx-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk'' command.
+
+121. $locale
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "C"
+
+ The locale used by strftime(3) to format dates. Legal values are the
+ strings your system accepts for the locale variable LC_TIME.
+
+122. $mail_check
+
+ Type: number
+
+ Default: 5
+
+ This variable configures how often (in seconds) Mutt-ng should look
+ for new mail.
+
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: This does not apply to IMAP mailboxes, see $\b$i\bim\bma\bap\bp_\b_m\bma\bai\bil\bl_\b_c\bch\bhe\bec\bck\bk.
+
+123. $mailcap_path
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ This variable specifies which files to consult when attempting to
+ display MIME bodies not directly supported by Mutt-ng.
+
+124. $mailcap_sanitize
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will restrict possible characters in mailcap %
+ expandos to a well-defined set of safe characters. This is the safe
+ setting, but we are not sure it doesn't break some more advanced MIME
+ stuff.
+
+ _\bD_\bO_\bN_\b'_\bT_\b _\bC_\bH_\bA_\bN_\bG_\bE_\b _\bT_\bH_\bI_\bS_\b _\bS_\bE_\bT_\bT_\bI_\bN_\bG_\b _\bU_\bN_\bL_\bE_\bS_\bS_\b _\bY_\bO_\bU_\b _\bA_\bR_\bE_\b _\bR_\bE_\bA_\bL_\bL_\bY_\b _\bS_\bU_\bR_\bE_\b _\bW_\bH_\bA_\bT_\b _\bY_\bO_\bU_\b _\bA_\bR_\bE
+ _\bD_\bO_\bI_\bN_\bG_\b!
+
+125. $maildir_header_cache_verify
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ Availability: Header Cache
+
+ Check for Maildir unaware programs other than Mutt-ng having modified
+ maildir files when the header cache is in use. This incurs one stat(2)
+ per message every time the folder is opened.
+
+126. $maildir_trash
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, messages marked as deleted will be saved with the maildir
+ (T)rashed flag instead of physically deleted.
+
+ _\bN_\bO_\bT_\bE_\b: this only applies to maildir-style mailboxes. Setting it will
+ have no effect on other mailbox types.
+
+ It is similiar to the trash option.
+
+127. $mark_old
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ Controls whether or not Mutt-ng marks _\bn_\be_\bw_\bu_\bn_\br_\be_\ba_\bd messages as _\bo_\bl_\bd if you
+ exit a mailbox without reading them.
+
+ With this option _\bs_\be_\bt, the next time you start Mutt-ng, the messages
+ will show up with an "O" next to them in the ``index'' menu,
+ indicating that they are old.
+
+128. $markers
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ Controls the display of wrapped lines in the internal pager. If set, a

+
+129. $mask
+
+ Type: regular expression
+
+ Default: "!^\.[^.]"
+
+ A regular expression used in the file browser, optionally preceded by
+ the _\bn_\bo_\bt operator ``!''. Only files whose names match this mask will be
+ shown. The match is always case-sensitive.
+
+130. $max_display_recips
+
+ Type: number
+
+ Default: 0
+
+ When set non-zero, this specifies the maximum number of recipient
+ header lines (To:, Cc: and Bcc:) to display in the pager if header
+ weeding is turned on. In case the number of lines exeeds its value,
+ the last line will have 3 dots appended.
+
+131. $max_line_length
+
+ Type: number
+
+ Default: 0
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, the maximum line length for displaying ``format = flowed''
+ messages is limited to this length. A value of 0 (which is also the
+ default) means that the maximum line length is determined by the
+ terminal width and $\b$w\bwr\bra\bap\bpm\bma\bar\brg\bgi\bin\bn.
+
+132. $mbox
+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: "~/mbox"

+134. $menu_context
+
+ Type: number
+
+ Default: 0
+
+ This variable controls the number of lines of context that are given
+ when scrolling through menus. (Similar to ``$\b$p\bpa\bag\bge\ber\br_\b_c\bco\bon\bnt\bte\bex\bxt\bt''.)
+
+135. $menu_move_off
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, the bottom entry of menus will never scroll up past the
+ bottom of the screen, unless there are less entries than lines. When
+ _\bs_\be_\bt, the bottom entry may move off the bottom.
+
+136. $menu_scroll
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, menus will be scrolled up or down one line when you attempt
+ to move across a screen boundary. If _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, the screen is cleared and
+ the next or previous page of the menu is displayed (useful for slow
+ links to avoid many redraws).
+
+137. $message_format
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "%s"
+
+ This is the string displayed in the ``attachment'' menu for
+ attachments of type message/rfc822. For a full listing of defined
+ printf(3)-like sequences see the section on ``$\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt''.

+ Type: boolean
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.5\b54\b4.\b. f\bfo\bol\bld\bde\ber\br
+ Default: no
- Type: path
- Default: "~/Mail"
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, forces Mutt-ng to interpret keystrokes with the high bit (bit
+ 8) set as if the user had pressed the ESC key and whatever key remains
+ after having the high bit removed. For example, if the key pressed has
+ an ASCII value of 0xf8, then this is treated as if the user had
+ pressed ESC then ``x''. This is because the result of removing the
+ high bit from ``0xf8'' is ``0x78'', which is the ASCII character
+ ``x''.
- Specifies the default location of your mailboxes. A `+' or `=' at the
- beginning of a pathname will be expanded to the value of this
- variable. Note that if you change this variable from the default
- value you need to make sure that the assignment occurs _\bb_\be_\bf_\bo_\br_\be you use
- `+' or `=' for any other variables since expansion takes place during
- the `set' command.

- Default: "%2C %t %N %F %2l %-8.8u %-8.8g %8s %d %f"
+ Default: no
- This variable allows you to customize the file browser display to your
- personal taste. This string is similar to ````$index_format'''', but
- has its own set of printf()-like sequences:
+ If _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will remove your address (see the ``alternates''
+ command) from the list of recipients when replying to a message.
- %\b%C\bC current file number
+140. $mh_purge
- %\b%d\bd date/time folder was last modified
+ Type: boolean
- %\b%f\bf filename
+ Default: no
- %\b%F\bF file permissions
+ When _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will mimic mh's behaviour and rename deleted
+ messages to _\b,_\b<_\bo_\bl_\bd_\b _\bf_\bi_\bl_\be_\b _\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\b> in mh folders instead of really deleting
+ them. If the variable is set, the message files will simply be
+ deleted.
- %\b%g\bg group name (or numeric gid, if missing)
+141. $mh_seq_flagged
- %\b%l\bl number of hard links
+ Type: string

+143. $mh_seq_unseen
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ Type: string
- Controls whether or not the _\bM_\ba_\bi_\bl_\b-_\bF_\bo_\bl_\bl_\bo_\bw_\bu_\bp_\b-_\bT_\bo header field is generated
- when sending mail. When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt will generate this field when you
- are replying to a known mailing list, specified with the ``subscribe''
- or ````lists'''' commands.
+ Default: "unseen"
- This field has two purposes. First, preventing you from receiving
- duplicate copies of replies to messages which you send to mailing
- lists, and second, ensuring that you do get a reply separately for any
- messages sent to known lists to which you are not subscribed. The
- header will contain only the list's address for subscribed lists, and
- both the list address and your own email address for unsubscribed
- lists. Without this header, a group reply to your message sent to a
- subscribed list will be sent to both the list and your address,
- resulting in two copies of the same email for you.
+ The name of the MH sequence used for unseen messages.

+ Default: no
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.5\b58\b8.\b. f\bfo\bor\brc\bce\be_\b_n\bna\bam\bme\be
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, the message you are forwarding will be attached as a
+ separate MIME part instead of included in the main body of the
+ message.
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ This is useful for forwarding MIME messages so the receiver can
+ properly view the message as it was delivered to you. If you like to
+ switch between MIME and not MIME from mail to mail, set this variable
+ to ask-no or ask-yes.
- This variable is similar to ````$save_name'''', except that Mutt will
- store a copy of your outgoing message by the username of the address
- you are sending to even if that mailbox does not exist.
+ Also see ``$\b$f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bd_\b_d\bde\bec\bco\bod\bde\be'' and ``$\b$m\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bd_\b_d\bde\bec\bco\bod\bde\be''.

- Controls the decoding of complex MIME messages into text/plain when
- forwarding a message. The message header is also RFC2047 decoded.
- This variable is only used, if ````$mime_forward'''' is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt,
- otherwise ````$mime_forward_decode'''' is used instead.
+ Controls the decoding of complex MIME messages into text/plain when
+ forwarding a message while ``$\b$m\bmi\bim\bme\be_\b_f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bd'' is _\bs_\be_\bt. Otherwise
+ ``$\b$f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bd_\b_d\bde\bec\bco\bod\bde\be'' is used instead.

+146. $mime_forward_rest
- Type: quadoption
- Default: yes

+ manner will be attached to the newly composed message if this option
+ is set.
- Type: string
- Default: "[%a: %s]"
+147. $mix_entry_format
- This variable controls the default subject when forwarding a message.
- It uses the same format sequences as the ````$index_format''''
- variable.
+ Type: string
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.6\b62\b2.\b. f\bfo\bor\brw\bwa\bar\brd\bd_\b_q\bqu\buo\bot\bte\be
+ Default: "%4n %c %-16s %a"
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ Availability: Mixmaster
- When _\bs_\be_\bt forwarded messages included in the main body of the message
- (when ````$mime_forward'''' is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt) will be quoted using
- ````$indent_string''''.
+ This variable describes the format of a remailer line on the mixmaster
+ chain selection screen. The following printf(3)-like sequences are
+ supported:
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.6\b63\b3.\b. f\bfr\bro\bom\bm
+ %n
+ The running number on the menu.
- Type: e-mail address
- Default: ""

+148. $mixmaster
- Type: regular expression
- Default: "^[^,]*"
+ Type: path
- A regular expression used by mutt to parse the GECOS field of a
- password entry when expanding the alias. By default the regular
- expression is set to "^[^,]*" which will return the string up to the
- first "," encountered. If the GECOS field contains a string like
- "lastname, firstname" then you should set the gecos_mask=".*".
+ Default: "mixmaster"
- This can be useful if you see the following behavior: you address a e-
- mail to user ID stevef whose full name is Steve Franklin. If mutt
- expands stevef to "Franklin" stevef@foo.bar then you should set the
- gecos_mask to a regular expression that will match the whole name so
- mutt will expand "Franklin" to "Franklin, Steve".

+ of known remailers, and to finally send a message through the
+ mixmaster chain.
- Type: string
- Default: "%4C %M%N %5s %-45.45f %d"
+149. $move
- This variable allows you to customize the newsgroup browser display to
- your personal taste. This string is similar to ````index_format'''',
- but has its own set of printf()-like sequences:

+ ``m\bmb\bbo\box\bx-\b-h\bho\boo\bok\bk'' command.
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+150. $msgid_format
- When unset, the header fields normally added by the ````my_hdr''''
- command are not created. This variable _\bm_\bu_\bs_\bt be unset before composing
- a new message or replying in order to take effect. If set, the user

- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ This is the format for the ``local part'' of the Message-ID: header
+ field generated by Mutt-ng. If this variable is empty, no Message-ID:
+ headers will be generated. The '%' character marks that certain data
+ will be added to the string, similar to printf(3). The following
+ characters are allowed:
- When set, this variable causes Mutt to include the header of the
- message you are replying to into the edit buffer. The ````$weed''''
- setting applies.
+ %d
+ the current day of month

- N\bNo\bot\bte\be:\b: The binding will not be displayed correctly if the function is
- bound to a sequence rather than a single keystroke. Also, the help
- line may not be updated if a binding is changed while Mutt is running.
- Since this variable is primarily aimed at new users, neither of these
- should present a major problem.

- Type: string
- Default: ""
+ Note that Mutt-ng might automatically use PGP/MIME for messages which

+ address is not human friendly (like CompuServe addresses).
- Type: path
- Default: "~/postponed"
+254. $reverse_name
- Mutt allows you to indefinitely ````postpone'' sending a message''
- which you are editing. When you choose to postpone a message, Mutt
- saves it in the mailbox specified by this variable. Also see the
- ````$postpone'''' variable.

+ Default: no
- Type: string
- Default: ""
+ It may sometimes arrive that you receive mail to a certain machine,

- If set, a shell command to be executed if mutt fails to establish a
- connection to the server. This is useful for setting up secure
- connections, e.g. with ssh(1). If the command returns a nonzero

+ save attachments to files named like this:
- Type: path
- Default: "lpr"
+ =?iso-8859-1?Q?file=5F=E4=5F991116=2Ezip?=
- This specifies the command pipe that should be used to print messages.
+ When this variable is _\bs_\be_\bt interactively, the change doesn't have the

- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ Also note that setting this parameter will _\bn_\bo_\bt have the effect that
+ Mutt-ng _\bg_\be_\bn_\be_\br_\ba_\bt_\be_\bs this kind of encoding. Instead, Mutt-ng will
+ unconditionally use the encoding specified in RFC 2231.
- Used in connection with the print-message command. If this option is
- set, the message is decoded before it is passed to the external
- command specified by ``$print_command''. If this option is unset, no

- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ Default: no
- Used in connection with the print-message command. If this option is
- set, the command specified by ``$print_command'' is executed once for
- each message which is to be printed. If this option is unset, the
- command specified by ``$print_command'' is executed only once, and all
- the messages are concatenated, with a form feed as the message
- separator.
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will take the sender's full address when choosing a

- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b22\b21\b1.\b. q\bqu\bui\bit\bt
+ Default: no
- Type: quadoption
- Default: yes
+ This variable controls how copies of outgoing messages are saved. When

+261. $score_threshold_delete
- Type: number
- Default: 10
+ Type: number
- If set to a value greater than 0, Mutt will display which message it
- is currently on when reading a mailbox. The message is printed after
- _\br_\be_\ba_\bd_\b__\bi_\bn_\bc messages have been read (e.g., if set to 25, Mutt will print
- a message when it reads message 25, and then again when it gets to

- large mailboxes which may take some time. When set to 0, only a
- single message will appear before the reading the mailbox.
+ Default: -1
- Also see the ````$write_inc'''' variable.
+ Messages which have been assigned a score equal to or lower than the

+ Type: path
- The value of _\b`_\b`_\b$_\br_\be_\bc_\bo_\br_\bd_\b'_\b' is overridden by the ````$force_name'''' and

+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: ""
+

+ variable $MAIL if it is not set.
+
+315. $ssl_ca_certificates_file
+
+ Type: path
+
+ Default: ""
+
+ This variable specifies a file containing trusted CA certificates. Any

+
+317. $ssl_force_tls
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ If this variable is _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will require that all connections to

+ TLS even if the server does not advertise the capability, since it
+ would otherwise have to abort the connection anyway. This option
+ supersedes ``$\b$s\bss\bsl\bl_\b_s\bst\bta\bar\brt\btt\btl\bls\bs''.
+
+318. $ssl_min_dh_prime_bits
+
+ Type: number
+
+ Default: 0
+

+
+ This variable specifies the minimum acceptable prime size (in bits)
+ for use in any Diffie-Hellman key exchange. A value of 0 will use the
+ default from the GNUTLS library.
+
+319. $ssl_starttls
+
+ Type: quadoption
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ Availability: SSL or GNUTLS
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt (the default), Mutt-ng will attempt to use STARTTLS on servers

+
+324. $status_chars
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "-*%A"
+
+ Controls the characters used by the ``%r'' indicator in
+ ``$\b$s\bst\bta\bat\btu\bus\bs_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt''. The first character is used when the mailbox is
+ unchanged. The second is used when the mailbox has been changed, and
+ it needs to be resynchronized. The third is used if the mailbox is in
+ read-only mode, or if the mailbox will not be written when exiting
+ that mailbox (You can toggle whether to write changes to a mailbox
+ with the toggle-write operation, bound by default to ``%''). The
+ fourth is used to indicate that the current folder has been opened in
+ attach-message mode (Certain operations like composing a new mail,
+ replying, forwarding, etc. are not permitted in this mode).
+
+325. $status_format
+
+ Type: string
+
+ Default: "-%r-Mutt-ng: %f [Msgs:%?M?%M/?%m%?n? New:%n?%?o? Old:%o?%?d?

+ %l?]---(%s/%S)-%>-(%P)---"
+
+ Controls the format of the status line displayed in the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx menu.
+ This string is similar to ``$\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\bex\bx_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt'', but has its own set of
+ printf(3)-like sequences:
+
+ %b
+ number of mailboxes with new mail *
+

+ the short pathname of the current mailbox
+
+ %d
+ number of deleted messages *
+
+ %f
+ the full pathname of the current mailbox
+

+
+ * = can be optionally printed if nonzero
+
+ Some of the above sequences can be used to optionally print a string
+ if their value is nonzero. For example, you may only want to see the
+ number of flagged messages if such messages exist, since zero is not
+ particularly meaningful. To optionally print a string based upon one
+ of the above sequences, the following construct is used
+
+ %?<sequence_char>?<optional_string>?
+
+ where _\bs_\be_\bq_\bu_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\b__\bc_\bh_\ba_\br is a character from the table above, and
+ _\bo_\bp_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\ba_\bl_\b__\bs_\bt_\br_\bi_\bn_\bg is the string you would like printed if _\bs_\be_\bq_\bu_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\b__\bc_\bh_\ba_\br
+ is nonzero. _\bo_\bp_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\ba_\bl_\b__\bs_\bt_\br_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bm_\ba_\by contain other sequences as well as
+ normal text, but you may _\bn_\bo_\bt nest optional strings.
+
+ Here is an example illustrating how to optionally print the number of
+ new messages in a mailbox:
+
+ %?n?%n new messages.?
+
+ Additionally you can switch between two strings, the first one, if a
+ value is zero, the second one, if the value is nonzero, by using the
+ following construct:
+
+ %?<sequence_char>?<if_string>&<else_string>?
+
+ You can additionally force the result of any printf(3)-like sequence
+ to be lowercase by prefixing the sequence character with an underscore
+ (_) sign. For example, if you want to display the local hostname in
+ lowercase, you would use:
+
+ %_h
+
+ If you prefix the sequence character with a colon (:) character,
+ Mutt-ng will replace any dots in the expansion by underscores. This
+ might be helpful with IMAP folders that don't like dots in folder
+ names.
+
+326. $status_on_top
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ Setting this variable causes the ``status bar'' to be displayed on the
+ first line of the screen rather than near the bottom.
+
+327. $strict_mailto
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ With mailto: style links, a body as well as arbitrary header
+ information may be embedded. This may lead to (user) headers being
+ overwriten without note if ``$\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bt_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs'' is unset.
+
+ If this variable is _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng is strict and allows anything to be
+ changed. If it's _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, all headers given will be prefixed with
+ ``X-Mailto-'' and the message including headers will be shown in the
+ editor regardless of what ``$\b$e\bed\bdi\bit\bt_\b_h\bhe\bea\bad\bde\ber\brs\bs'' is set to.
+
+328. $strict_mime
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, non MIME-compliant messages that doesn't have any charset
+ indication in the ``Content-Type:'' header field can be displayed (non
+ MIME-compliant messages are often generated by old mailers or buggy
+ mailers like MS Outlook Express). See also $\b$a\bas\bss\bsu\bum\bme\bed\bd_\b_c\bch\bha\bar\brs\bse\bet\bt.
+
+ This option also replaces linear-white-space between encoded-word and
+ *text to a single space to prevent the display of MIME-encoded
+ ``Subject:'' header field from being devided into multiple lines.
+
+329. $strict_threads
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, threading will only make use of the ``In-Reply-To:'' and
+ ``References:'' header fields when you ``$\b$s\bso\bor\brt\bt'' by message threads.
+ By default, messages with the same subject are grouped together in
+ ``pseudo threads.'' This may not always be desirable, such as in a
+ personal mailbox where you might have several unrelated messages with
+ the subject ``hi'' which will get grouped together. See also
+ ``$\b$s\bso\bor\brt\bt_\b_r\bre\be'' for a less drastic way of controlling this behaviour.
+
+330. $strip_was
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will remove the trailing part of the ``Subject:''
+ line which matches $\b$s\bst\btr\bri\bip\bp_\b_w\bwa\bas\bs_\b_r\bre\beg\bge\bex\bx when replying. This is useful to
+ properly react on subject changes and reduce ``subject noise.'' (esp.
+ in Usenet)
+
+331. $strip_was_regex
+
+ Type: regular expression
+
+ Default: "\([Ww][Aa][RrSs]: .*\)[ ]*$"
+
+ When non-empty and $\b$s\bst\btr\bri\bip\bp_\b_w\bwa\bas\bs is _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will remove this
+ trailing part of the ``Subject'' line when replying if it won't be
+ empty afterwards.
+
+332. $stuff_quoted
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, attachments with flowed format will have their quoting
+ ``stuffed'', i.e. a space will be inserted between the quote
+ characters and the actual text.
+
+333. $suspend
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: yes
+
+ When _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng won't stop when the user presses the terminal's
+ _\bs_\bu_\bs_\bp key, usually CTRL+Z. This is useful if you run Mutt-ng inside an
+ xterm using a command like ``xterm -e muttng.''
+
+334. $text_flowed
+
+ Type: boolean
+
+ Default: no
+
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will generate text/plain; format=flowed attachments.
+ This format is easier to handle for some mailing software, and
+ generally just looks like ordinary text. To actually make use of this
+ format's features, you'll need support in your editor.
+
+ Note that $\b$i\bin\bnd\bde\ben\bnt\bt_\b_s\bst\btr\bri\bin\bng\bg is ignored when this option is set.
+
+335. $thorough_search
+
+ Type: boolean
- You may optionally use the reverse- prefix to specify reverse sorting
- order (example: set sort_browser=reverse-date).
+ Default: no
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b26\b61\b1.\b. s\bso\bor\brt\bt_\b_r\bre\be
+ Affects the ~b and ~h search operations described in section
+ ``p\bpa\bat\btt\bte\ber\brn\bns\bs'' above. If _\bs_\be_\bt, the headers and attachments of messages to
+ be searched are decoded before searching. If _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, messages are
+ searched as they appear in the folder.
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+336. $thread_received
- This variable is only useful when sorting by threads with
- ````$strict_threads'''' unset. In that case, it changes the heuristic
- mutt uses to thread messages by subject. With sort_re set, mutt will
- only attach a message as the child of another message by subject if
- the subject of the child message starts with a substring matching the
- setting of ````$reply_regexp''''. With sort_re unset, mutt will
- attach the message whether or not this is the case, as long as the
- non-````$reply_regexp'''' parts of both messages are identical.
+ Type: boolean
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b26\b62\b2.\b. s\bsp\bpo\boo\bol\blf\bfi\bil\ble\be
+ Default: no
- Type: path
- Default: ""
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng uses the date received rather than the date sent to
+ thread messages by subject.
- If your spool mailbox is in a non-default place where Mutt cannot find
- it, you can specify its location with this variable. Mutt will
- automatically set this variable to the value of the environment
- variable $MAIL if it is not set.
+337. $tilde
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b26\b63\b3.\b. s\bst\bta\bat\btu\bus\bs_\b_c\bch\bha\bar\brs\bs
+ Type: boolean
- Type: string
- Default: "-*%A"
+ Default: no
- Controls the characters used by the "%r" indicator in
- ````$status_format''''. The first character is used when the mailbox
- is unchanged. The second is used when the mailbox has been changed,
- and it needs to be resynchronized. The third is used if the mailbox is
- in read-only mode, or if the mailbox will not be written when exiting
- that mailbox (You can toggle whether to write changes to a mailbox
- with the toggle-write operation, bound by default to "%"). The fourth
- is used to indicate that the current folder has been opened in attach-
- message mode (Certain operations like composing a new mail, replying,
- forwarding, etc. are not permitted in this mode).
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, the internal-pager will pad blank lines to the bottom of the
+ screen with a tilde (~).

+ Type: number
- Controls the format of the status line displayed in the _\bi_\bn_\bd_\be_\bx menu.
- This string is similar to ````$index_format'''', but has its own set
- of printf()-like sequences:

- %\b%b\bb number of mailboxes with new mail *
+ This variable controls the _\bn_\bu_\bm_\bb_\be_\br_\b _\bo_\bf_\b _\bs_\be_\bc_\bo_\bn_\bd_\bs Mutt-ng will wait for a

- %\b%d\bd number of deleted messages *
+339. $tmpdir
- %\b%f\bf the full pathname of the current mailbox
+ Type: path
- %\b%F\bF number of flagged messages *
+ Default: ""
- %\b%h\bh local hostname
+ This variable allows you to specify where Mutt-ng will place its
+ temporary files needed for displaying and composing messages. If this
+ variable is not set, the environment variable $TMPDIR is used. If
+ $TMPDIR is not set then "/tmp" is used.
- %\b%l\bl size (in bytes) of the current mailbox *
+340. $to_chars
- %\b%L\bL size (in bytes) of the messages shown (i.e., which match the
- current limit) *
+ Type: string
- %\b%m\bm the number of messages in the mailbox *
+ Default: " +TCFL"
- %\b%M\bM the number of messages shown (i.e., which match the current
- limit) *
+ Controls the character used to indicate mail addressed to you. The
+ first character is the one used when the mail is NOT addressed to your
+ address (default: space). The second is used when you are the only
+ recipient of the message (default: +). The third is when your address
+ appears in the ``To:'' header field, but you are not the only
+ recipient of the message (default: T). The fourth character is used
+ when your address is specified in the ``Cc:'' header field, but you
+ are not the only recipient. The fifth character is used to indicate
+ mail that was sent by _\by_\bo_\bu. The sixth character is used to indicate
+ when a mail was sent to a mailing-list you're subscribe to (default:
+ L).
- %\b%n\bn number of new messages in the mailbox *
+341. $trash
- %\b%o\bo number of old unread messages
+ Type: path
- %\b%p\bp number of postponed messages *
+ Default: ""
- %\b%P\bP percentage of the way through the index
+ If _\bs_\be_\bt, this variable specifies the path of the trash folder where the

+ purged.
- %\b%r\br modified/read-only/won't-write/attach-message indicator,
- according to ``$status_chars''

+ Default: yes
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b27\b71\b1.\b. t\bti\bil\bld\bde\be
+ Availability: IDN
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will show you international domain names decoded.
- When set, the internal-pager will pad blank lines to the bottom of the
- screen with a tilde (~).
+ _\bN_\bo_\bt_\be_\b: You can use IDNs for addresses even if this is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt. This
+ variable only affects decoding.

+350. $use_ipv6
- Type: number
- Default: 600
+ Type: boolean
- This variable controls the _\bn_\bu_\bm_\bb_\be_\br _\bo_\bf _\bs_\be_\bc_\bo_\bn_\bd_\bs Mutt will wait for a key
- to be pressed in the main menu before timing out and checking for new
- mail. A value of zero or less will cause Mutt to never time out.
+ Default: yes
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b27\b73\b3.\b. t\btm\bmp\bpd\bdi\bir\br
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will look for IPv6 addresses of hosts it tries to
+ contact. If this option is _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will restrict itself to IPv4
+ addresses. Normally, the default should work.
- Type: path
- Default: ""
+351. $visual
- This variable allows you to specify where Mutt will place its
- temporary files needed for displaying and composing messages. If this
- variable is not set, the environment variable TMPDIR is used. If
- TMPDIR is not set then "/tmp" is used.
+ Type: path
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b27\b74\b4.\b. t\bto\bo_\b_c\bch\bha\bar\brs\bs
+ Default: ""
- Type: string
- Default: " +TCFL"
+ Specifies the visual editor to invoke when the _\b~_\bv command is given in
+ the builtin editor.
- Controls the character used to indicate mail addressed to you. The
- first character is the one used when the mail is NOT addressed to your
- address (default: space). The second is used when you are the only
- recipient of the message (default: +). The third is when your address
- appears in the TO header field, but you are not the only recipient of
- the message (default: T). The fourth character is used when your
- address is specified in the CC header field, but you are not the only
- recipient. The fifth character is used to indicate mail that was sent
- by _\by_\bo_\bu. The sixth character is used to indicate when a mail was sent
- to a mailing-list you subscribe to (default: L).
+352. $wait_key
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b27\b75\b5.\b. t\btu\bun\bnn\bne\bel\bl
+ Type: boolean
- Type: string
- Default: ""
+ Default: yes
- Setting this variable will cause mutt to open a pipe to a command
- instead of a raw socket. You may be able to use this to set up
- preauthenticated connections to your IMAP/POP3 server. Example:
+ Controls whether Mutt-ng will ask you to press a key after _\bs_\bh_\be_\bl_\bl_\b-
+ _\be_\bs_\bc_\ba_\bp_\be, _\bp_\bi_\bp_\be_\b-_\bm_\be_\bs_\bs_\ba_\bg_\be, _\bp_\bi_\bp_\be_\b-_\be_\bn_\bt_\br_\by, _\bp_\br_\bi_\bn_\bt_\b-_\bm_\be_\bs_\bs_\ba_\bg_\be, and _\bp_\br_\bi_\bn_\bt_\b-_\be_\bn_\bt_\br_\by
+ commands.
- tunnel="ssh -q mailhost.net /usr/local/libexec/imapd"
+ It is also used when viewing attachments with ``a\bau\but\bto\bo_\b_v\bvi\bie\bew\bw'', provided
+ that the corresponding mailcap entry has a needsterminal flag, and the
+ external program is interactive.
- NOTE: For this example to work you must be able to log in to the
- remote machine without having to enter a password.
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will always ask for a key. When _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will
+ wait for a key only if the external command returned a non-zero
+ status.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b27\b76\b6.\b. u\bus\bse\be_\b_8\b8b\bbi\bit\btm\bmi\bim\bme\be
+353. $weed
- Type: boolean
- Default: no
+ Type: boolean
- W\bWa\bar\brn\bni\bin\bng\bg:\b: do not set this variable unless you are using a version of
- sendmail which supports the -B8BITMIME flag (such as sendmail 8.8.x)
- or you may not be able to send mail.
+ Default: yes
- When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt will invoke ````$sendmail'''' with the -B8BITMIME flag
- when sending 8-bit messages to enable ESMTP negotiation.
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt-ng will weed headers when displaying, forwarding,
+ printing, or replying to messages.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b27\b77\b7.\b. u\bus\bse\be_\b_d\bdo\bom\bma\bai\bin\bn
+354. $wrap_search
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ Type: boolean
- When set, Mutt will qualify all local addresses (ones without the
- @host portion) with the value of ````$hostname''''. If _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, no
- addresses will be qualified.
+ Default: yes
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b27\b78\b8.\b. u\bus\bse\be_\b_f\bfr\bro\bom\bm
+ Controls whether searches wrap around the end of the mailbox.
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ When _\bs_\be_\bt, searches will wrap around the first (or last) message. When
+ _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, searches will not wrap.
- When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt will generate the `From:' header field when sending
- messages. If _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt, no `From:' header field will be generated unless
- the user explicitly sets one using the ````my_hdr'''' command.
+355. $wrapmargin
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b27\b79\b9.\b. u\bus\bse\be_\b_i\bip\bpv\bv6\b6
+ Type: number
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ Default: 0
- When _\bs_\be_\bt, Mutt will look for IPv6 addresses of hosts it tries to
- contact. If this option is unset, Mutt will restrict itself to IPv4
- addresses. Normally, the default should work.
+ Controls the size of the margin remaining at the right side of the
+ terminal when Mutt-ng's pager does smart wrapping.
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b28\b80\b0.\b. u\bus\bse\ber\br_\b_a\bag\bge\ben\bnt\bt
+356. $write_bcc
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ Type: boolean
- When _\bs_\be_\bt, mutt will add a "User-Agent" header to outgoing messages,
- indicating which version of mutt was used for composing them.
+ Default: yes
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b28\b81\b1.\b. v\bvi\bis\bsu\bua\bal\bl
+ Controls whether Mutt-ng writes out the Bcc header when preparing
+ messages to be sent. Exim users may wish to _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt this.
- Type: path
- Default: ""
+357. $write_inc
- Specifies the visual editor to invoke when the _\b~_\bv command is given in
- the builtin editor.
+ Type: number
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b28\b82\b2.\b. w\bwa\bai\bit\bt_\b_k\bke\bey\by
+ Default: 10
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ When writing a mailbox, a message will be printed every _\bw_\br_\bi_\bt_\be_\b__\bi_\bn_\bc
+ messages to indicate progress. If set to 0, only a single message will
+ be displayed before writing a mailbox.
- Controls whether Mutt will ask you to press a key after _\bs_\bh_\be_\bl_\bl_\b- _\be_\bs_\bc_\ba_\bp_\be,
- _\bp_\bi_\bp_\be_\b-_\bm_\be_\bs_\bs_\ba_\bg_\be, _\bp_\bi_\bp_\be_\b-_\be_\bn_\bt_\br_\by, _\bp_\br_\bi_\bn_\bt_\b-_\bm_\be_\bs_\bs_\ba_\bg_\be, and _\bp_\br_\bi_\bn_\bt_\b-_\be_\bn_\bt_\br_\by commands.
+ Also see the ``$\b$r\bre\bea\bad\bd_\b_i\bin\bnc\bc'' variable.
- It is also used when viewing attachments with ````auto_view'''',
- provided that the corresponding mailcap entry has a _\bn_\be_\be_\bd_\bs_\bt_\be_\br_\bm_\bi_\bn_\ba_\bl
- flag, and the external program is interactive.
+358. $xterm_icon
- When set, Mutt will always ask for a key. When unset, Mutt will wait
- for a key only if the external command returned a non-zero status.
+ Type: string
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b28\b83\b3.\b. w\bwe\bee\bed\bd
+ Default: "M%?n?AIL&ail?"
- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ Controls the format of the X11 icon title, as long as
+ $\b$x\bxt\bte\ber\brm\bm_\b_s\bse\bet\bt_\b_t\bti\bit\btl\ble\bes\bs is _\bs_\be_\bt. This string is identical in formatting to
+ the one used by ``$\b$s\bst\bta\bat\btu\bus\bs_\b_f\bfo\bor\brm\bma\bat\bt''.
- When set, mutt will weed headers when when displaying, forwarding,
- printing, or replying to messages.
+359. $xterm_leave

- Type: boolean
- Default: yes
+ Default: ""
- Controls whether searches wrap around the end of the mailbox.
+ If $\b$x\bxt\bte\ber\brm\bm_\b_s\bse\bet\bt_\b_t\bti\bit\btl\ble\bes\bs is _\bs_\be_\bt, this string will be used to set the title
+ when leaving Mutt-ng. For terminal-based programs, there's no easy and
+ portable way to read the current title so Mutt-ng cannot read it upon
+ startup and restore it when exiting.
- When set, searches will wrap around the first (or last) message. When
- unset, searches will not wrap.
+ Based on the xterm FAQ, the following might work:
- 6\b6.\b.3\b3.\b.2\b28\b85\b5.\b. w\bwr\bra\bap\bpm\bma\bar\brg\bgi\bin\bn
+ set xterm_leave = "`test x$DISPLAY != x && xprop -id $WINDOWID | grep

+ Default: no
- Type: number
- Default: 10
+ Controls whether Mutt-ng sets the xterm title bar and icon name (as
+ long as you're in an appropriate terminal). The default must be _\bu_\bn_\bs_\be_\bt
+ to force in the validity checking.
- When writing a mailbox, a message will be printed every _\bw_\br_\bi_\bt_\be_\b__\bi_\bn_\bc
- messages to indicate progress. If set to 0, only a single message
- will be displayed before writing a mailbox.
-
- Also see the ````$read_inc'''' variable.

+5. Functions
+
+ The following is the list of available functions listed by the mapping
+ in which they are available. The default key setting is given, and an
+ explanation of what the function does. The key bindings of these
+ functions can be changed with the b\bbi\bin\bnd\bd command.
+
+5.1. generic
+
+ The _\bg_\be_\bn_\be_\br_\bi_\bc menu is not a real menu, but specifies common functions
+ (such as movement) available in all menus except for _\bp_\ba_\bg_\be_\br and _\be_\bd_\bi_\bt_\bo_\br.
+ Changing settings for this menu will affect the default bindings for
+ all menus (except as noted).

+Appendix B. Hacking Documentation
+
+ This manual is written in XML and transformed via a XSLT stylesheet
+ into valid DocBook/XML and/or LaTeX to be again transformed via a XSLT
+ stylesheet into the final formats.
+
+ This two pass processing is required to keep the file size low and to
+ sanitize use, i.e. drastically lower the typing overhead.
+
+ To achieve the latter, the sources come with a file called
+ muttng-manual.xsl introducing the muttng-doc namespace which offers
+ the following tags to be used (_\bn_\bo_\bt_\be_\b:_\b _\bt_\bh_\bi_\bs_\b _\bi_\bs_\b _\bf_\ba_\br_\b _\bf_\br_\bo_\bm_\b _\bb_\be_\bi_\bn_\bg_\b _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bp_\bl_\be_\bt_\be_\b,
+ _\ba_\bn_\by_\b _\bh_\be_\bl_\bp_\b _\bt_\bo_\bw_\ba_\br_\bd_\bs_\b _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bs_\bi_\bs_\bt_\be_\bn_\bc_\by_\b _\bi_\bs_\b _\bh_\bi_\bg_\bh_\bl_\by_\b _\ba_\bp_\bp_\br_\be_\bc_\bi_\ba_\bt_\be_\bd).
+
+ <muttng-doc:man name="" [sect=""]/>
+ _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\bs_\b _\bt_\bo_\b _\bm_\ba_\bn_\bu_\ba_\bl_\b _\bp_\ba_\bg_\be_\bs_\b. If the sect parameter is omitted,
+ it'll be 1 for the commands section. There's no auto-indexing
+ yet.
+
+ <muttng-doc:envvar name=""/>
+ _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\bs_\b _\bt_\bo_\b _\be_\bn_\bv_\bi_\br_\bo_\bn_\bm_\be_\bn_\bt_\b _\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\bs_\b. The name parameter must
+ contain upper-case letters only without the dollar sign as
+ it'll be added automatically. Auto-indexing is done.
+
+ <muttng-doc:hook name=""/>
+ _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\bs_\b _\bt_\bo_\b _\bh_\bo_\bo_\bk_\bs_\b. The string -hook will be added
+ automatically to the value given in the name parameter. All
+ entries will be auto-indexed.
+
+ <muttng-doc:pattern name="" [full="1"]/>
+ _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\bs_\b _\bt_\bo_\b _\bp_\ba_\bt_\bt_\be_\br_\bn_\bs_\b. The name parameter must only contain
+ the letter/symbol for the pattern as the tilde symbol/equal
+ sign will be added automatically. Auto-indexing is done. If the
+ full parameter is given the equal sign as well as tilde will be
+ printed for a fully complete reference.
+
+ <muttng-doc:key [mod="C|E"]>key</muttng-doc:key>
+ _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\bi_\bn_\bg_\b _\ba_\b _\bk_\be_\by_\b.. Because it's somewhat untrivial to always
+ get the right escaping for LaTeX, there's a tag for it. The
+ optional modifiers C or E stand for Control and Escape
+ respectively. To still allow escaping, the actual key sequences
+ must be given within the tag.
+
+ <muttng-doc:funcdef name=""/>
+ _\bD_\be_\bf_\bi_\bn_\bi_\bn_\bg_\b _\ba_\b _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd_\b.. It's used to define a command with the
+ name given in the name parameter. The default key binding must
+ be given via <muttng-doc:key/> (see above). The string will be
+ automatically enclosed in <>. Auto-indexing is done. Also an
+ anchor with id func-[name] will be added with [name] being the
+ value of the name parameter.
+
+ <muttng-doc:funcref name=""/>
+ _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\bs_\b _\bt_\bo_\b _\bf_\bu_\bn_\bc_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\bs_\b.. This is practically the same as the
+ above except that there's no anchor defined.
+
+ <muttng-doc:vardef name=""/>
+ _\bD_\be_\bf_\bi_\bn_\bi_\bn_\bg_\b _\ba_\b _\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\b. This is to be used by makedoc only to
+ define a command with a given name and XML-normalized link
+ given via id. Auto-indexing is done. The name parameter's value
+ will be prefixed with a dollar sign as for environment
+ variables.
+
+ <muttng-doc:varref name=""/>
+ _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\bs_\b _\bt_\bo_\b _\bv_\ba_\br_\bi_\ba_\bb_\bl_\be_\bs_\b. This practically is the same as above
+ except that the text inbetween won't be wrapped within a
+ <sect1> tag. Auto-indexing is the same as for the above. This
+ one is intended for manual use.
+
+ <muttng-doc:web url""/>
+ _\bP_\br_\be_\bt_\bt_\by_\b _\bp_\br_\bi_\bn_\bt_\b _\ba_\b _\bl_\bi_\bn_\bk_\be_\bd_\b _\bU_\bR_\bL. As for E-Mail addresses where the
+ text (mostly) equals the link's target, URLs must be enclosed
+ in <> (also this reduced redudant URL typing).
+
+ <muttng-doc:rfc num=""/>
+ _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\bs_\b _\bt_\bo_\b _\bR_\bf_\bC_\b _\bd_\bo_\bc_\bu_\bm_\be_\bn_\bt_\bs_\b. Use this to produce links to RfC
+ document with number given as the num parameter. A link to
+ <\b<h\bht\btt\btp\bp:\b:/\b//\b/w\bww\bww\bw.\b.f\bfa\baq\bqs\bs.\b.o\bor\brg\bg/\b/>\b> will be made. Auto-indexing is done
+ under _\bR_\bf_\bC.
+
+ <muttng-doc:cmddef name="" [noanchor="1"]/>
+ _\bD_\be_\bf_\bi_\bn_\bi_\bn_\bg_\b _\ba_\b _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf_\bi_\bg_\bu_\br_\ba_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\b _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd_\b. The name of the command is
+ given as the name parameter. In case a single command has
+ multiple possible calling sequences, specify noanchor="1" for
+ subsequent use. Auto-indexing is done. Specify the arguments
+ within the tag.
+
+ <muttng-doc:cmdref name=""/>
+ _\bR_\be_\bf_\be_\br_\be_\bn_\bc_\be_\bs_\b _\bt_\bo_\b _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf_\bi_\bg_\bu_\br_\ba_\bt_\bi_\bo_\bn_\b _\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd_\bs_\b. Use this to refer to
+ commands as it builds the proper internal reference name.
+ Auto-indexing is done.
+
+ <muttng-doc:lstconf/>, <muttng-doc:lstmail/>, <muttng-doc:lstshell/>
+ _\bS_\bc_\br_\be_\be_\bn_\b _\bl_\ba_\by_\bo_\bu_\bt_\b _\bb_\by_\b _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bt_\be_\bx_\bt_\b. These are used to specify
+ environments for different types of screen output. For DocBook
+ output, all of these simply map to <screen/>. But as a possible
+ future migration to LaTeX may be ahead, different languages
+ defined for the listings.sty packages may be used to have
+ proper syntax highlighting for these so that there must be a
+ context sensitive distinction.
+
+ <muttng-doc:special [docbook=""] [latex=""]/>
+ This is intended for specifying special strings for either
+ DocBook/XML or LaTeX.
+
+ Additional notes follow.
+
+ * To not fully bloat the XSL stylesheet procuding the LaTeX code,
+ all tables _\bm_\bu_\bs_\bt have an attribute called texstr which is directly
+ passed to longtable.
