########################################################################## ## Configuration file for Mutt mail agent (http://www.mutt.org) ## Generated on Fri Dec 03, 1999 18:01:34 ## by Muttrc Builder http://mutt.netliberte.org/ ## for ppp25-lorient.libertysurf.fr #reset all ########################################################################## ## Personal options ## hdrs ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## When unset, the header fields normally added by the ``my_hdr'' command ## are not created. This variable must be unset before composing a new ## message or replying in order to take effect. #set hdrs ## use_domain ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## When set, Mutt will qualify all local addresses (ones without the ## @host portion) with the value of ``$hostname''. If unset, no ## addresses will be qualified. ## #set use_domain ## alternates ## Type: string ## Default: none ## A regexp that allows you to specify alternate addresses where you ## receive mail. #set alternates = none ## hostname ## Type: string ## Default: varies ## Specifies the hostname to use after the ``@'' in local e-mail ## addresses. This overrides the compile time definition obtained from ## /etc/resolv.conf. ## set hostname = localhost ## realname ## Type: string ## Default: GCOS field from /etc/passwd ## This variable specifies what "real" or "personal" name should be used ## when sending messages. ## set realname = "Fax" ## spoolfile ## Type: string ## Default: most likely /var/mail/$USER or /usr/spool/mail/$USER ## If your spool mailbox is in a non-default place where Mutt cannot find ## it, you can specify its location with this variable. set spoolfile = /var/spool/mail/fax ########################################################################## ## Alias options ## reverse_alias ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## This variable controls whether or not Mutt will display the "personal" ## name from your aliases in the index menu if it finds an alias that ## matches the message's sender. unset reverse_alias ## alias_file ## Type: string ## Default: ~/.muttrc ## The default file in which to save aliases created by the ``create- ## alias'' function. ## Note: Mutt will not automatically source this file; you must ## explicitly use the ``source'' command for it to be executed. ## set alias_file = ~/.aliases ## alias_format ## Type: string ## Default: "%2n %t %-10a %r" ## Specifies the format of the data displayed for the `alias' menu. The ## following printf(3)-style sequences are available. ## ## %a set alias_format = "%2n %t %-10a %r" ## sort_alias ## Type: string ## Default: alias ## Specifies how the entries in the `alias' menu are sorted. The ## following are legal values: ## ## address (sort alphabetically by email address) ## ## alias (sort alphabetically by alias name) ## ## unsorted (leave in order specified in .muttrc) ## set sort_alias = alias ########################################################################## ## General options ## 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. ## #set locale = "C" ## menu_scroll ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## When set, menus will be scrolled up or down one line when you attempt ## to move across a screen boundary. If unset, the screen is cleared and ## the next or previous page of the menu is displayed (useful for slow ## links to avoid many redraws). ## unset menu_scroll ## meta_key ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## If set, forces Mutt 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 0xf4, then this is treated as if the user had ## pressed ESC then ``x''. This is because the result of removing the ## high bit from ``0xf4'' is ``0x74'', which is the ASCII character ## ``x''. ## unset meta_key ## suspend ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## When unset, mutt won't stop when the user presses the terminal's susp ## key, usually ``control-Z''. This is useful if you run mutt inside an ## xterm using a command like xterm -e mutt. ## unset suspend ## thorough_search ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## Affects the ~b and ~h search operations described in section ## ``patterns'' above. If set, the headers and attachments of messages ## to be searched are decoded before searching. #unset thorough_search ## wait_key ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## Controls whether Mutt will ask you to press a key after shell-escape, ## pipe-message, pipe-entry, print-message, and print-entry commands. ## ## It is also used when viewing attachments with ``autoview'', provided ## that the corresponding mailcap entry has a needsterminal flag, and the ## external program is interactive. ## ## 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. ## set wait_key ## 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 set. ## set history = 10 ## read_inc ## Type: number ## Default: 10 ## 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 ## read_inc 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 ## message 50). #set read_inc = 10 ## write_inc ## Type: number ## Default: 10 ## When writing a mailbox, a message will be printed every write_inc ## 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. ## #set write_inc = 10 ## quit ## Type: quadoption ## Default: yes ## This variable controls whether ``quit'' and ``exit'' actually quit ## from mutt. If it set to yes, they do quit, if it is set to no, they ## have no effect, and if it is set to ask-yes or ask-no, you are ## prompted for confirmation when you try to quit. ## set quit = yes ## charset ## Type: string ## Default: iso-8859-1 ## Character set your terminal uses to display and enter textual data. ## This information is required to properly label outgoing messages which ## contain 8-bit characters so that receiving parties can display your ## messages in the correct character set. ## set charset = iso-8859-1 ## 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 ``$index_format''. This is passed to the strftime call to ## process the date. See the man page for strftime(3) for the proper ## syntax. ## ## 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 C locale (that is in US ## English). ## set date_format = "!%a, %b %d, %Y at %I:%M:%S%p %Z" ## default_hook ## Type: string ## Default: "~f %s !~P | (~P ~C %s)" ## This variable controls how send-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. ## #set default_hook = "~f %s !~P | (~P ~C %s)" ## tmpdir ## Type: string ## Default: /tmp ## This variable allows you to specify where Mutt will place its ## temporary files needed for displaying and composing messages. ## set tmpdir = /tmp ## shell ## Type: string ## Default: retrieved from passwd file ## Command to use when spawning a subshell. ## #set shell = retrieved from passwd file ## simple_search ## Type: string ## Default: "~f %s | ~s %s" ## Specifies how Mutt should expand a simple search into a real search ## pattern. A simple search is one that does not contain any of the ~ ## operators. See ``patterns'' for more information on search patterns. ## ## For example, if you simply type joe at a search or limit prompt, Mutt ## will automatically expand it to the value specified by this variable. ## For the default value it would be: ## ## ~f joe | ~s joe ## #set simple_search = "~f %s | ~s %s" ########################################################################## ## Main menu ## collapse_unread ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## When unset, Mutt will not collapse a thread if it contains any unread ## messages. ## set collapse_unread ## arrow_cursor ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## When set, an arrow (``->'') will be used to indicate the current entry ## in menus instead of hiliting the whole line. unset arrow_cursor ## ascii_chars ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## If set, Mutt will use plain ASCII characters when displaying thread ## and attachment trees, instead of the default ACS characters. ## unset ascii_chars ## auto_tag ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## When set, functions in the index 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. ## unset auto_tag ## beep ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## When this variable is set, mutt will beep when an error occurs. ## unset beep ## beep_new ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## 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. ## set beep_new ## check_new ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## Note: this option only affects maildir and MH style mailboxes. ## ## When set, Mutt will check for new mail delivered while the mailbox is ## open. set check_new ## help ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## When set, help lines describing the bindings for the major functions ## provided by each menu are displayed on the first line of the screen. ## ## Note: 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. ## #set help ## mark_old ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## Controls whether or not Mutt makes the distinction between new ## messages and old unread messages. By default, Mutt will mark new ## messages as old if you exit a mailbox without reading them. The next ## time you start Mutt, the messages will show up with an "O" next to ## them in the index menu, indicating that they are old. set mark_old ## markers ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## Controls the display of wrapped lines in the internal pager. If set, a ## ``+'' marker is displayed at the beginning of wrapped lines. Also see ## the ``$smart_wrap'' variable. ## set markers ## resolve ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## When set, the cursor will be automatically advanced to the next ## (possibly undeleted) message whenever a command that modifies the ## current message is executed. ## set resolve ## sort_re ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## 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''. set sort_re ## status_on_top ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## Setting this variable causes the ``status bar'' to be displayed on the ## first line of the screen rather than near the bottom. ## unset status_on_top ## strict_threads ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## If set, threading will only make use of the ``In-Reply-To'' and ## ``References'' fields when ``sorting'' 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. ## unset strict_threads ## uncollapse_jump ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## When set, Mutt will jump to the next unread message, if any, when the ## current thread is uncollapsed. ## #unset uncollapse_jump ## wrap_search ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## Controls whether searches wrap around the end of the mailbox. ## ## When set, searches will wrap around the first (or last) message. When ## unset, searches will not wrap. ## #set wrap_search ## index_format ## Type: format ## Default: "%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%4l) %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 to format output (see the man page for more detail). ## The following sequences are defined in Mutt: ## ## %a address of the author ## %b filename of the original message folder (think mailBox) ## %B the list to which the letter was sent, or else the folder name (%b). ## %c number of characters (bytes) in the message ## %C current message number ## %d date and time of the message in the format specified by ## #set index_format = "%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%4l) %s" ## mail_check ## Type: number ## Default: 5 ## This variable configures how often (in seconds) mutt should look for ## new mail. ## set mail_check = 10 ## timeout ## Type: number ## Default: 600 ## This variable controls the number of seconds Mutt will wait for a key ## to be pressed in the main menu before timing out and checking for new ## mail. set timeout = 120 ## delete ## Type: quadoption ## Default: ask-yes ## Controls whether or not messages are really deleted when closing or ## synchronizing a mailbox. If set to yes, messages marked for deleting ## will automatically be purged without prompting. If set to no, ## messages marked for deletion will be kept in the mailbox. ## #set delete = ask-yes ## reply_regexp ## Type: string ## Default: "^(re|aw):[ \t]*" ## A regular expression used to recognize reply messages when threading ## and replying. The default value corresponds to the English "Re:" and ## the German "Aw:". ## set reply_regexp = "Re:[ \t]*" ## sort ## Type: string ## Default: date-sent ## Specifies how to sort messages in the index menu. Valid values are ## ## date or date-sent ## ## date-received ## ## from ## ## mailbox-order (unsorted) ## ## score ## ## size ## ## subject ## ## threads ## ## to ## ## You may optionally use the reverse- prefix to specify reverse sorting ## order (example: set sort=reverse-date-sent). ## set sort = threads #set sort = from set sort_aux = date ## status_chars ## Type: string ## Default: "-*%A" ## 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). ## #set status_chars = "-*%A" ## status_format ## Type: string ## Default: "-%r-Mutt: %f [Msgs:%?M?%M/?%m%?n? New:%n?%?o? Old:%o?%?d? ## Del:%d?%?F? Flag:%F?%?t? Tag:%t?%?p? Post:%p?%?b? Inc:%b? %?l? ## %l?]---(%s/%S)-%>-(%P)---" ## ## Controls the format of the status line displayed in the index menu. ## This string is similar to ``$index_format'', but has its own set of ## printf()-like sequences: ## ## %b number of mailboxes with new mail * ## %d number of deleted messages * ## %h local hostname ## %f the full pathname of the current mailbox ## %F number of flagged messages * ## %l size (in bytes) of the current mailbox * ## %L size (in bytes) of the messages shown (i.e., which match the current limit) * ## %m the number of messages in the mailbox * ## %M the number of messages shown (i.e., which match the current limit) * ## %n number of new messages in the mailbox * ## %o number of old unread messages ## %p number of postponed messages * ## %P percentage of the way through the index ## %r modified/read-only/won't-write/attach-message indicator, according to $status_chars ## %s current sorting mode ($sort) ## %S current aux sorting method ($sort_aux) ## %t number of tagged messages * ## %u number of unread messages * ## %v Mutt version string ## %V currently active limit pattern, if any * ## ## %>X right justify the rest of the string and pad with "X" ## %|X pad to the end of the line with "X" ## ## * = 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 ## #set status_format = "-%r-Mutt: %f [Msgs:%?M?%M/?%m%?n? New:%n?%?o? Old:%o?%?d? ## to_chars ## Type: string ## Default: " +TCF" ## 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 you. ## #set to_chars = " +TCF" ## sort_aux ## Type: string ## Default: date-sent ## When sorting by threads, this variable controls how threads are sorted ## in relation to other threads, and how the branches of the thread trees ## are sorted. This can be set to any value that ``sort'' can, except ## threads (in that case, mutt will just use date-sent). set sort_aux = reverse-date-received ########################################################################## ## Pager options ## prompt_after ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## If you use an external ``pager'', setting this variable will cause ## Mutt to prompt you for a command when the pager exits rather than ## returning to the index menu. #set prompt_after ## smart_wrap ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## Controls the display of lines longer then the screen width in the ## internal pager. If set, long lines are wrapped at a word boundary. If ## unset, lines are simply wrapped at the screen edge. Also see the ## ``$markers'' variable. ## #set smart_wrap ## tilde ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## When set, the internal-pager will pad blank lines to the bottom of the ## screen with a tilde (~). ## #unset tilde ## pager_stop ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## When set, the internal-pager will not move to the next message when ## you are at the end of a message and invoke the next-page function. ## #unset pager_stop ## pager_format ## Type: format ## Default: "-%S- %C/%m: %-20.20n %s" ## This variable controls the format of the one-line message ``status'' ## displayed before each message in either the internal or an external ## pager. The valid sequences are listed in the ``index_format'' ## section. ## #set pager_format = "-%S- %C/%m: %-20.20n %s" ## pager_context ## Type: number ## Default: 0 ## This variable controls the number of lines of context that are given ## when displaying the next or previous page in the internal pager. By ## default, Mutt will display the line after the last one on the screen ## at the top of the next page (0 lines of context). ## #set pager_context = 0 ## pager_index_lines ## Type: number ## Default: 0 ## Determines the number of lines of a mini-index which is shown when in ## the pager. The current message, unless near the top or bottom of the ## folder, will be roughly one third of the way down this mini-index, ## giving the reader the context of a few messages before and after the ## message. This is useful, for example, to determine how many messages ## remain to be read in the current thread. One of the lines is reserved ## for the status bar from the index, so a pager_index_lines of 6 will ## only show 5 lines of the actual index. A value of 0 results in no ## index being shown. If the number of messages in the current folder is ## less than pager_index_lines, then the index will only use as many ## lines as it needs. ## #set pager_index_lines = 0 ## escape ## Type: string ## Default: ~ ## Escape character to use for functions in the builtin editor. ## #set escape = ~ ## pager ## Type: string ## Default: builtin ## This variable specifies which pager you would like to use to view ## messages. builtin means to use the builtin pager, otherwise this ## variable should specify the pathname of the external pager you would ## like to use. ## ## Using an external pager may have some disadvantages: Additional ## keystrokes are necessary because you can't call mutt functions ## directly from the pager, and screen resizes cause lines longer than ## the screen width to be badly formatted in the help menu. ## #set pager = builtin ## quote_regexp ## Type: string ## Default: "^([ \t]*[>|#:}])+" ## A regular expression used in the internal-pager to determine quoted ## sections of text in the body of a message. ## ## Note: In order to use the quotedx patterns in the internal pager, you ## need to set this to a regular expression that matches exactly the ## quote characters at the beginning of quoted lines. ## #set quote_regexp = "^([ \t]*[>|#:}])+" ## smileys ## Type: string ## Default: (>From)|(:[-^]?[][)(><}{|/DP]) ## The pager uses this variable to catch some common false positives of ## ``quote_regexp'', most notably smileys in the beginning of a line ## #set smileys = (>From)|(:[-^]?[][)(><}{|/DP]) ## visual ## Type: string ## Default: $VISUAL ## Specifies the visual editor to invoke when the ~v command is given in ## the builtin editor. ## #set visual = $VISUAL ########################################################################## ## Compose options ## askbcc ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## If set, Mutt will prompt you for blind-carbon-copy (Bcc) recipients ## before editing an outgoing message. ## #unset askbcc ## askcc ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## If set, Mutt will prompt you for carbon-copy (Cc) recipients before ## editing the body of an outgoing message. ## #unset askcc ## autoedit ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## When set, Mutt will skip the initial send-menu and allow you to ## immediately begin editing the body of your message when replying to ## another message. The send-menu may still be accessed once you have ## finished editing the body of your message. ## ## If the ``$edit_headers'' variable is also set, the initial prompts in ## the send-menu are always skipped, even when composing a new message. ## #unset autoedit ## edit_headers ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## This option allows you to edit the header of your outgoing messages ## along with the body of your message. ## #unset edit_headers ## hidden_host ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## When set, mutt will skip the host name part of ``hostname'' variable ## when adding the domain part to addresses. This variable does not ## affect the generation, and it will not lead to the cut-off of first- ## level domains. ## #unset hidden_host ## ignore_list_reply_to ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## Affects the behaviour of the reply function when replying to messages ## from mailing lists. When set, if the ``Reply-To:'' field is set to ## the same value as the ``To:'' field, Mutt assumes that the ``Reply- ## To:'' 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 list-reply function; group-reply ## will reply to both the sender and the list. ## #unset ignore_list_reply_to ## sig_dashes ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## If set, a line containing ``-- '' will be inserted before your ## ``signature''. It is strongly recommended that you not unset this ## variable unless your ``signature'' contains just your name. The ## reason for this is because many software packages use ``-- ##'' to ## detect your signature. For example, Mutt has the ability to highlight ## the signature in a different color in the builtin pager. ## #set sig_dashes ## write_bcc ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## Controls whether mutt writes out the Bcc header when preparing ## messages to be sent. #set write_bcc ## postpone ## Type: quadoption ## Default: ask-yes ## Controls whether or not messages are saved in the ``$postponed'' ## mailbox when you elect not to send immediately. ## #set postpone = ask-yes ## recall ## Type: quadoption ## Default: ask-yes ## Controls whether or not you are prompted to recall postponed messages ## when composing a new message. #set recall = ask-yes ## editor ## Type: string ## Default: value of environment variable $VISUAL, $EDITOR, or "vi" ## This variable specifies which editor to use when composing messages. ## set editor = "vim '+set tw=72'" ## ispell ## Type: string ## Default: "ispell" ## How to invoke ispell (GNU's spell-checking software). ## #set ispell = "ispell" ## postponed ## Type: string ## Default: ~/postponed ## Mutt allows you to indefinitely ``postpone sending a message'' which ## you are editing. When you choose to postpone a message, Mutt saves it ## in the folder specified by this variable. Also see the ``$postpone'' ## variable. ## #set postponed = ~/postponed ## query_command ## Type: string ## Default: null ## This specifies the command that mutt will use to make external address ## queries. The string should contain a %s, which will be substituted ## with the query string the user types. set query_command = null ## signature ## Type: string ## Default: ~/.signature ## Specifies the filename of your signature, which is appended to all ## outgoing messages. If the filename ends with a pipe (``|''), it is ## assumed that filename is a shell command and input should be read from ## its stdout. ## set signature = ~/.signature ########################################################################## ## Reply options ## in_reply_to ## Type: format ## Default: "%i; from \"%a" on %{!%a, %b %d, %Y at %I:%M:%S%p}" ## This specifies the format of the In-Reply-To: header field added when ## replying to a message. For a full listing of defined escape sequences ## see the section on ``$index_format''. ## #set in_reply_to = "%i; from \'%a' on %{!%a, %b %d, %Y at %I:%M:%S%p}" ## fast_reply ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## When set, the initial prompt for recipients and subject are skipped ## when replying to messages, and the initial prompt for subject is ## skipped when forwarding messages. ## ## Note: this variable has no effect when the ``$autoedit'' variable is ## set. ## set fast_reply ## header ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## When set, this variable causes Mutt to include the full header of the ## message you are replying to into the edit buffer. ## #unset header ## metoo ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## If unset, Mutt will remove your address from the list of recipients ## when replying to a message. ## #unset metoo ## reply_self ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## If unset and you are replying to a message sent by you, Mutt will ## assume that you want to reply to the recipients of that message rather ## than to yourself. ## #unset reply_self ## reverse_name ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## It may sometimes arrive that you receive mail to a certain machine, ## move the messages to another machine, and reply to some the messages ## from there. If this variable is set, the default From: line of the ## reply messages is built using the address where you received the ## messages you are replying to. #unset reverse_name ## attribution ## Type: format ## 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 escape sequences see the ## section on ``$index_format''. ## set attribution = "Le %d, %n a ecrit:" ## indent_string ## Type: format ## Default: "> " ## Specifies the string to prepend to each line of text quoted in a ## message to which you are replying. You are strongly encouraged not to ## change this value, as it tends to agitate the more fanatical netizens. ## #set indent_string = "> " ## post_indent_string ## Type: format ## Default: none ## Similar to the ``$attribution'' variable, Mutt will append this string ## after the inclusion of a message which is being replied to. ## #set post_indent_string = none ## 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. ## set include = yes ## reply_to ## Type: quadoption ## Default: ask-yes ## If set, Mutt will ask you if you want to use the address listed in the ## Reply-To: header field when replying to a message. If you answer no, ## it will use the address in the From: header field instead. This ## option is useful for reading a mailing list that sets the Reply-To: ## header field to the list address and you want to send a private ## message to the author of a message. ## set reply_to = ask-yes ########################################################################## ## Sending options ## allow_8bit ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## Controls whether 8-bit data is converted to 7-bit using either Quoted- ## Printable or Base64 encoding when sending mail. ## set allow_8bit ## bounce_delivered ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## When this variable is set, mutt will include Delivered-To headers when ## bouncing messages. Postfix users may wish to unset this variable. ## #set bounce_delivered ## followup_to ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## Controls whether or not the Mail-Followup-To header field is generated ## when sending mail. When set, Mutt will generate this field when you ## are replying to a known mailing ``lists''. ## ## The purpose of this field is to prevent you from receiving duplicate ## copies of replies to messages which you send by specifying that you ## will receive a copy of the message if it is addressed to the mailing ## list (and thus there is no need to also include your address in a ## group reply). ## #set followup_to ## force_name ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## This variable is similar to ``$save_name'', except that Mutt will ## store a copy of your outgoing message by the username of the address ## you are sending to even if that mailbox does not exist. ## ## Also see the ``$record'' variable. ## #unset force_name ## save_name ## Type: boolean ## Default: unset ## This variable controls how copies of outgoing messages are saved. ## When set, a check is made to see if a mailbox specified by the ## recipient address exists (this is done by searching for a mailbox in ## the ``folder'' directory with the username part of the recipient ## address). If the mailbox exists, the outgoing message will be saved ## to that mailbox, otherwise the message is saved to the ``record'' ## mailbox. ## ## Also see the ``$force_name'' variable. ## #unset save_name ## use_from ## Type: boolean ## Default: set ## When set, Mutt will generate the `From:' header field when sending ## messages. If unset, no `From:' header field will be generated unless ## the user explicitly sets one using the ``my_hdr'' command. ## set use_from ## abort_nosubject ## Type: quadoption ## Default: ask-yes ## If set to yes, when composing messages and no subject is given at the ## subject prompt, composition will be aborted. set abort_nosubject = ask-yes ## abort_unmodified ## Type: quadoption ## Default: yes ## If set to yes, composition will automatically abort after editing the ## message body if no changes are made to the file (this check only ## happens after the first edit of the file).
