integration with mutt

Postby thevulture » Mon Sep 03, 2007 5:30 am

Hi
I would like to access my mail locally with mutt.

I've created a new user.
BUt UI am now stuck as I don't know the mail folder for the user (me).

Can anybody who use's mutt post their .muttrc file?

Also how can i found out where a users mail folder is?

Thanks

If your mailbox is on Scalix you will have to set up mutt to retrieve the mail over IMAP.

scalix and mutt work for me with this .muttrc-config-bits:

Code: Select all

set spoolfile=imap://scalix.server.local
set folder=imap://scalix.server.local
set imap_user="username@scalix.server.local"
set imap_pass=password


No magic involved.

There is one caveat: When changing folders with "c" pressing "enter" will only enter the directory - not show the emails it contains. Pressing space will enter the directory. I have not seen this behavior before with other imap-servers and mutt.
