People, After a very long time I have had to stop running my own mail server and now use an off-site service - but I will need to continually get access to all the old emails on my own server - so I need a read-only mutt to view them. So far I have this in my .muttrc: set mbox_type=Maildir set folder="~/Maildir" set mask="!^\\.[^.]" set mbox="~/Maildir" set record="+.Sent" set postponed="+.Drafts" set spoolfile="~/Maildir" set imap_user = "phr" mailboxes `find ~/Maildir/ -type d -name cur -printf '%h\n'| sort | grep -v '/home/phr/Maildir/.Spam$' | tr "\n" " "` set read_only=yes but after lots of messing around I still can't see any of the 3000+ subdirectories under Maildir . . Suggestions appreciated! Thanks, Phil. -- PO Box 896 Cowra NSW 2796 Australia
