46 ## *** DEFAULT SETTINGS FOR THE ATTACHMENTS PATCH ***
50 ## Please see the manual (section "attachments") for detailed
51 ## documentation of the "attachments" command.
53 ## Removing a pattern from a list removes that pattern literally. It
54 ## does not remove any type matching the pattern.
56 ## attachments +A */.*
57 ## attachments +A image/jpeg
58 ## unattachments +A */.*
60 ## This leaves "attached" image/jpeg files on the allowed attachments
61 ## list. It does not remove all items, as you might expect, because the
62 ## second */.* is not a matching expression at this time.
64 ## Remember: "unattachments" only undoes what "attachments" has done!
65 ## It does not trigger any matching on actual messages.
67 ## Qualify any MIME part with an "attachment" disposition, EXCEPT for
68 ## text/x-vcard and application/pgp parts. (PGP parts are already known
69 ## to mutt, and can be searched for with ~g, ~G, and ~k.)
71 ## I've added x-pkcs7 to this, since it functions (for S/MIME)
72 ## analogously to PGP signature attachments. S/MIME isn't supported
73 ## in a stock mutt build, but we can still treat it specially here.
76 attachments -A text/x-vcard application/pgp.*
77 attachments -A application/x-pkcs7-.*
79 ## Discount all MIME parts with an "inline" disposition, unless they're
80 ## text/plain. (Why inline a text/plain part unless it's external to the
83 attachments +I text/plain
85 ## These two lines make Mutt qualify MIME containers. (So, for example,
86 ## a message/rfc822 forward will count as an attachment.) The first
87 ## line is unnecessary if you already have "attach-allow */.*", of
88 ## course. These are off by default! The MIME elements contained
89 ## within a message/* or multipart/* are still examined, even if the
90 ## containers themselves don't qualify.
92 #attachments +A message/.* multipart/.*
93 #attachments +I message/.* multipart/.*

501 # because mutt needs to determine the initial new mail status of such a
502 # mailbox by performing a fast mailbox scan when it is defined.
503 # Afterwards the new mail status is tracked by file size changes.
513 # Note: this option only affects maildir and MH style
516 # When set, Mutt will check for new mail delivered while the
517 # mailbox is open. Especially with MH mailboxes, this operation can
518 # take quite some time since it involves scanning the directory and
519 # checking each file to see if it has already been looked at. If
520 # this variable is unset, no check for new mail is performed
521 # while the mailbox is open.

3161 # Name: quote_regexp
3162 # Type: regular expression
3163 # Default: "^([ \t]*[|>:}#])+"
3166 # A regular expression used in the internal pager to determine quoted
3167 # sections of text in the body of a message. Quoted text may be filtered
3168 # out using the <toggle-quoted> command, or colored according to the
3169 # ``color quoted'' family of directives.
3171 # Higher levels of quoting may be colored differently (``color quoted1'',
3172 # ``color quoted2'', etc.). The quoting level is determined by removing
3173 # the last character from the matched text and recursively reapplying
3174 # the regular expression until it fails to produce a match.
3176 # Match detection may be overridden by the $smileys regular expression.
3186 # If set to a value greater than 0, Mutt will display which message it
3187 # is currently on when reading a mailbox or when performing search actions
3188 # such as search and limit. The message is printed after
3189 # this many messages have been read or searched (e.g., if set to 25, Mutt will
3190 # print a message when it is at message 25, and then again when it gets
3191 # to message 50). This variable is meant to indicate progress when
3192 # reading or searching large mailboxes which may take some time.
3193 # When set to 0, only a single message will appear before the reading
3196 # Also see the $write_inc, $net_inc and $time_inc variables and the
3197 # ``tuning'' section of the manual for performance considerations.
3207 # If set, all folders are opened in read-only mode.
3217 # This variable specifies what ``real'' or ``personal'' name should be used
3218 # when sending messages.
3220 # By default, this is the GECOS field from /etc/passwd. Note that this
3221 # variable will not be used when the user has set a real name
3222 # in the $from variable.
3225 # set recall=ask-yes
3232 # Controls whether or not Mutt recalls postponed messages
3233 # when composing a new message.
3235 # Setting this variable to is not generally useful, and thus not
3238 # Also see $postponed variable.
3241 # set record="~/sent"
3248 # This specifies the file into which your outgoing messages should be
3249 # appended. (This is meant as the primary method for saving a copy of
3250 # your messages, but another way to do this is using the ``my_hdr''
3251 # command to create a ``Bcc:'' field with your email address in it.)
3253 # The value of $record is overridden by the $force_name and

3257 # set reply_regexp="^(re([\\[0-9\\]+])*|aw):[ \t]*"
3259 # Name: reply_regexp
3260 # Type: regular expression
3261 # Default: "^(re([\\[0-9\\]+])*|aw):[ \t]*"
3264 # A regular expression used to recognize reply messages when threading
3265 # and replying. The default value corresponds to the English "Re:" and
3276 # If unset and you are replying to a message sent by you, Mutt will
3277 # assume that you want to reply to the recipients of that message rather
3280 # Also see the ``alternates'' command.
3283 # set reply_to=ask-yes
3290 # If set, when replying to a message, Mutt will use the address listed
3291 # in the Reply-to: header as the recipient of the reply. If unset,
3292 # it will use the address in the From: header field instead. This
3293 # option is useful for reading a mailing list that sets the Reply-To:
3294 # header field to the list address and you want to send a private
3295 # message to the author of a message.
3305 # When set, the cursor will be automatically advanced to the next
3306 # (possibly undeleted) message whenever a command that modifies the
3307 # current message is executed.
3310 # set reverse_alias=no
3312 # Name: reverse_alias
3317 # This variable controls whether or not Mutt will display the ``personal''
3318 # name from your aliases in the index menu if it finds an alias that
3319 # matches the message's sender. For example, if you have the following
3321 # alias juser abd30425@somewhere.net (Joe User)
3323 # and then you receive mail which contains the following header:
3324 # From: abd30425@somewhere.net
3326 # It would be displayed in the index menu as ``Joe User'' instead of
3327 # ``abd30425@somewhere.net.'' This is useful when the person's e-mail
3328 # address is not human friendly.
3331 # set reverse_name=no
3333 # Name: reverse_name
3338 # It may sometimes arrive that you receive mail to a certain machine,
3339 # move the messages to another machine, and reply to some the messages
3340 # from there. If this variable is set, the default From: line of
3341 # the reply messages is built using the address where you received the
3342 # messages you are replying to if that address matches your
3343 # ``alternates''. If the variable is unset, or the address that would be
3344 # used doesn't match your ``alternates'', the From: line will use
3345 # your address on the current machine.
3347 # Also see the ``alternates'' command.
3350 # set reverse_realname=yes
3352 # Name: reverse_realname
3357 # This variable fine-tunes the behavior of the $reverse_name feature.
3358 # When it is set, mutt will use the address from incoming messages as-is,
3359 # possibly including eventual real names. When it is unset, mutt will
3360 # override any such real names with the setting of the $realname variable.
3363 # set rfc2047_parameters=no
3365 # Name: rfc2047_parameters
3370 # When this variable is set, Mutt will decode RFC2047-encoded MIME
3371 # parameters. You want to set this variable when mutt suggests you
3372 # to save attachments to files named like:
3373 # =?iso-8859-1?Q?file=5F=E4=5F991116=2Ezip?=
3375 # When this variable is set interactively, the change won't be
3376 # active until you change folders.
3378 # Note that this use of RFC2047's encoding is explicitly
3379 # prohibited by the standard, but nevertheless encountered in the
3382 # Also note that setting this parameter will not have the effect
3383 # that mutt generates this kind of encoding. Instead, mutt will
3384 # unconditionally use the encoding specified in RFC2231.
3387 # set save_address=no
3389 # Name: save_address
3394 # If set, mutt will take the sender's full address when choosing a
3395 # default folder for saving a mail. If $save_name or $force_name
3396 # is set too, the selection of the Fcc folder will be changed as well.
3399 # set save_empty=yes
3406 # When unset, mailboxes which contain no saved messages will be removed
3407 # when closed (the exception is $spoolfile which is never removed).
3408 # If set, mailboxes are never removed.

3411 # delete MH and Maildir directories.
3414 # set save_history=0
3416 # Name: save_history
3421 # This variable controls the size of the history (per category) saved in the
3422 # $history_file file.
3432 # This variable controls how copies of outgoing messages are saved.
3433 # When set, a check is made to see if a mailbox specified by the
3434 # recipient address exists (this is done by searching for a mailbox in
3435 # the $folder directory with the username part of the
3436 # recipient address). If the mailbox exists, the outgoing message will
3437 # be saved to that mailbox, otherwise the message is saved to the

3510 # A colon-delimited list of character sets for outgoing messages. Mutt will use the
3511 # first character set into which the text can be converted exactly.
3512 # If your $charset is not ``iso-8859-1'' and recipients may not
3513 # understand ``UTF-8'', it is advisable to include in the list an

3563 # shell from /etc/passwd is used.
3566 # set sig_dashes=yes
3573 # If set, a line containing ``-- '' (note the trailing space) will be inserted before your
3574 # $signature. It is strongly recommended that you not unset
3575 # this variable unless your signature contains just your name. The

3577 # detect your signature. For example, Mutt has the ability to highlight
3578 # the signature in a different color in the built-in pager.
3588 # If set, the signature will be included before any quoted or forwarded

3609 # Name: simple_search
3611 # Default: "~f %s | ~s %s"
3614 # Specifies how Mutt should expand a simple search into a real search
3615 # pattern. A simple search is one that does not contain any of the ``~'' pattern
3616 # operators. See ``patterns'' for more information on search patterns.
3618 # For example, if you simply type ``joe'' at a search or limit prompt, Mutt
3619 # will automatically expand it to the value specified by this variable by
3620 # replacing ``%s'' with the supplied string.

3991 # prompt you for your password when you first send mail via SMTP.
3992 # See $smtp_url to configure mutt to send mail via SMTP.
3994 # Warning: you should only use this option when you are on a
3995 # fairly secure machine, because the superuser can read your muttrc even
3996 # if you are the only one who can read the file.
4006 # Defines the SMTP smarthost where sent messages should relayed for
4007 # delivery. This should take the form of an SMTP URL, e.g.:

4011 # Setting this variable overrides the value of the $sendmail
4022 # Specifies how to sort messages in the ``index'' menu. Valid values
4024 # - date or date-sent
4027 # - mailbox-order (unsorted)
4036 # You may optionally use the ``reverse-'' prefix to specify reverse sorting
4037 # order (example: ``set sort=reverse-date-sent'').
4040 # set sort_alias=alias
4047 # Specifies how the entries in the ``alias'' menu are sorted. The

4049 # - address (sort alphabetically by email address)
4050 # - alias (sort alphabetically by alias name)
4051 # - unsorted (leave in order specified in .muttrc)
4061 # When sorting by threads, this variable controls how threads are sorted
4062 # in relation to other threads, and how the branches of the thread trees
4063 # are sorted. This can be set to any value that $sort can, except
4064 # ``threads'' (in that case, mutt will just use ``date-sent''). You can also
4065 # specify the ``last-'' prefix in addition to the ``reverse-'' prefix, but ``last-''
4066 # must come after ``reverse-''. The ``last-'' prefix causes messages to be
4067 # sorted against its siblings by which has the last descendant, using
4068 # the rest of $sort_aux as an ordering. For instance,
4069 # set sort_aux=last-date-received

4109 # only attach a message as the child of another message by subject if
4110 # the subject of the child message starts with a substring matching the
4111 # setting of $reply_regexp. With $sort_re unset, mutt will attach

4118 # Name: spam_separator
4123 # This variable controls what happens when multiple spam headers

4346 # where sequence_char is a character from the table above, and
4347 # optional_string is the string you would like printed if
4348 # sequence_char is nonzero. optional_string may contain
4349 # other sequences as well as normal text, but you may not nest
4352 # Here is an example illustrating how to optionally print the number of
4353 # new messages in a mailbox:
4355 # %?n?%n new messages.?
4357 # You can also switch between two strings using the following construct:
4359 # %?<sequence_char>?<if_string>&<else_string>?

4367 # you would use: ``%_h''.
4369 # If you prefix the sequence character with a colon (``:'') character, mutt

4440 # messages to be searched are decoded before searching. If unset,
4441 # messages are searched as they appear in the folder.
4443 # Users searching attachments or for non-ASCII characters should set
4444 # this value because decoding also includes MIME parsing/decoding and possible
4445 # character set conversions. Otherwise mutt will attempt to match against the

4469 # screen with a tilde (``~'').
4479 # Along with $read_inc, $write_inc, and $net_inc, this
4480 # variable controls the frequency with which progress updates are
4481 # displayed. It suppresses updates less than $time_inc milliseconds
4482 # apart. This can improve throughput on systems with slow terminals,
4483 # or when running mutt on a remote system.
4485 # Also see the ``tuning'' section of the manual for performance considerations.
4495 # When Mutt is waiting for user input either idling in menus or
4496 # in an interactive prompt, Mutt would block until input is
4497 # present. Depending on the context, this would prevent certain
4498 # operations from working, like checking for new mail or keeping
4499 # an IMAP connection alive.
4501 # This variable controls how many seconds Mutt will at most wait
4502 # until it aborts waiting for input, performs these operations and
4503 # continues to wait for input.
4505 # A value of zero or less will cause Mutt to never time out.
4515 # This variable allows you to specify where Mutt will place its
4516 # temporary files needed for displaying and composing messages. If
4517 # this variable is not set, the environment variable $TMPDIR is
4518 # used. If $TMPDIR is not set then ``/tmp'' is used.
4521 # set to_chars=" +TCFL"
4528 # Controls the character used to indicate mail addressed to you. The
4529 # first character is the one used when the mail is not addressed to your
4530 # address. The second is used when you are the only
4531 # recipient of the message. The third is when your address
4532 # appears in the ``To:'' header field, but you are not the only recipient of
4533 # the message. The fourth character is used when your
4534 # address is specified in the ``Cc:'' header field, but you are not the only
4535 # recipient. The fifth character is used to indicate mail that was sent
4536 # by you. The sixth character is used to indicate when a mail
4537 # was sent to a mailing-list you subscribe to.
4547 # Setting this variable will cause mutt to open a pipe to a command
4548 # instead of a raw socket. You may be able to use this to set up
4549 # preauthenticated connections to your IMAP/POP3/SMTP server. Example:
4550 # set tunnel="ssh -q mailhost.net /usr/local/libexec/imapd"
4552 # Note: For this example to work you must be able to log in to the remote
4553 # machine without having to enter a password.
