7.2 About this document
regular expression searches and a powerful pattern matching language
for selecting groups of messages.
+ This documentation additionaly contains documentation to M\bMu\but\btt\bt-\b-N\bNG\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 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
+ ``$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. _\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 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 _\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 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 _\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 _\bo_\bn _\bb_\bo_\bt_\bh _\bl_\bi_\bs_\bt_\bs 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"

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=e\be=\b=]\b]]\b]
- is a regexp that matches any of ``è'', ``é'' and ``e''.
+ represent all of ``e'' ``e'' and ``e''. In this case, [\b[[\b[=\b=e\be=\b=]\b]]\b]
+ is a regexp that matches any of ``e'', ``e'' and ``e''.
A regular expression matching a single character may be followed by
one of several repetition operators:
~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
~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)
+ ~* ``From'' contains realname and (syntactically) valid
+ address (excluded are addresses matching against
+ alternates or any alias)
Where EXPR, USER, ID, and SUBJECT are ``regular expressions''.
Special attention has to be made when using regular expressions inside
Mutt also recognizes the following operators to create more complex
search patterns:
- · ! -- logical NOT operator
+ +\bo ! -- logical NOT operator
- · | -- logical OR operator
+ +\bo | -- logical OR operator
- · () -- logical grouping operator
+ +\bo () -- 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

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 messages to mail, start a new query, or have a new query
+ 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

Mutt supports reading and writing of four different mailbox formats:
mbox, MMDF, MH and Maildir. The mailbox type is autodetected, so
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
+ 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).
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.

+
+ If Mutt 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.
+
+ The most common use is to open compressed archived folders e.g. with
+ gzip.
+
+ 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.
+
+ There are three hooks defined (``open-hook'', ``close-hook'' and
+ ``append-hook'') which define commands to uncompress and compress a
+ folder and to append messages to an existing compressed folder
+ respectively.
+
+ For example:
+
+ open-hook \\.gz$ "gzip -cd %f > %t"
+ close-hook \\.gz$ "gzip -c %t > %f"
+ append-hook \\.gz$ "gzip -c %t >> %f"
+
+ You do not have to specify all of the commands. If you omit ``append-
+ hook'', the folder will be open and closed again each time you will
+ add to it. If you omit ``close-hook'' (or give empty command) , the
+ folder will be open in the mode. If you specify ``append-hook''
+ though you'll be able to append to the folder.
+
+ Note that Mutt 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 ``$save_empty'', so
+ that the compressed file will be removed if you delete all of the
+ messages.

+
+ 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.
+
+ 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.
+
+ %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.

+
+ Usage: append-hook _\br_\be_\bg_\be_\bx_\bp "_\bc_\bo_\bm_\bm_\ba_\bn_\bd"
+
+ 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 ``open-

+
+ Example:
+
+ append-hook \\.gz$ "gzip -c %t >> %f"
+
+ When ``append-hook'' 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 (``$mbox_type'') type is always supposed (i.e. this
+ is the format used for the temporary folder).
+
+ If the file does not exist when you save to it, ``close-hook'' is
+ called, and not ``append-hook''. ``append-hook'' is only for appending
+ to existing folders.
+
+ 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

+
+ 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 use
+ the following hooks:
+
+ open-hook \\.pgp$ "pgp -f < %f > %t"
+ close-hook \\.pgp$ "pgp -fe YourPgpUserIdOrKeyId < %t > %f"
+
+ Please note, that PGP does not support appending to an encrypted

+ N\bNo\bot\bte\be:\b: the folder is temporary stored decrypted in the /tmp directory,
