pine vs. mutt, revisited

[Charles Hallenbeck]

Hi Cheryl,

Well, I have so far only used the complete email address as a pattern, 
but theoretically I could probably improve on that to some degree. Here 
is a set of lines which will give you the general idea:

fcc-save-hook chomiak at charter.net +cheryl
fcc-save-hook chris at kaz.com +family
fcc-save-hook chuckh at mhcable.com +myself
fcc-save-hook editorial at registerstar.com +letters
fcc-save-hook janina at CapitalAccessibility.Com +janina
fcc-save-hook janina at rednote.net +janina
fcc-save-hook kathhdh at aol.com +family
fcc-save-hook paulmigs at migliorelli.org +paul
fcc-save-hook pteasdale at indenews.com +letters


As you can see, the final entry is the folder name, with the plus sign 
signifying that the folder should be appended. In the above there are 
several family members all going to "+family", two newspapers going to 
"+letters" (I write letters to editors), two different addresses for 
Janina  converging to one folder, and a couple of unique folders for 
individuals: cheryl, myself, paul.

The way I have handled this is to create a separate file to hold my 
address aliases, into which the aliases are placed by Mutt when you type 
"a", and in the same file I have to manually enter these fcc-save-hook 
lines. Sorting the file puts the aliases up front and the hook 
definitions last. The Mutt rc file contains a "source" command to read 
this file when Mutt is started. 

Also, I have "set copy=ask-no" so I can decide whether to save my own 
outgoing stuff. Occasionally I will want to, but the default for me is 
no.
