Mutt text email client
- I like to store my email in Maildir format, one file per email.
Add this to homedir .muttrc from http://www.elho.net/mutt/maildir/
#First tell Mutt to use the # Maildir format: set mbox_type=Maildir # Next configure the locations of the common folders: set folder="~/Maildir" set mask="!^\\.[^.]" set mbox="~/Maildir" set record="+.Sent" set postponed="+.Drafts" set spoolfile="~/Maildir" # Set up mailboxes by scanning for all subfolders in ~/Maildir: mailboxes `echo -n "+ "; find ~/Maildir -maxdepth 1 -type d -name ".*" -printf "+'%f' "` # Note that this requires find(1) from the GNU findutils, # which on BSD systems # usually is installed as gfind(1). # Add macros to make the folder browser usable by always using the mailboxes # setup above: macro index c "<change-folder>?<toggle-mailboxes>" "open a different folder" macro pager c "<change-folder>?<toggle-mailboxes>" "open a different folder" # To additionally get straight to the folder browser when copying, moving and # attaching mail, add the following macros: macro index C "<copy-message>?<toggle-mailboxes>" "copy a message to a mailbox" macro index M "<save-message>?<toggle-mailboxes>" "move a message to a mailbox" macro compose A "<attach-message>?<toggle-mailboxes>" "attach message(s) to this message" # License # # This document is free documentation; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under # the terms of the # GNU General Public License # as published by the Free Software Foundation; # either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. # Original from http://www.elho.net/mutt/maildir/
