5 # set abort_nosubject=ask-yes
7 # Name: abort_nosubject
12 # If set to yes, when composing messages and no subject is given
13 # at the subject prompt, composition will be aborted. If set to
14 # no, composing messages with no subject given at the subject
15 # prompt will never be aborted.
18 # set abort_unmodified=yes
20 # Name: abort_unmodified
25 # If set to yes, composition will automatically abort after
26 # editing the message body if no changes are made to the file (this
27 # check only happens after the first edit of the file). When set
28 # to no, composition will never be aborted.
31 # set alias_file="~/.muttrc"
35 # Default: "~/.muttrc"
38 # The default file in which to save aliases created by the
39 # ``create-alias'' function.
41 # Note: Mutt will not automatically source this file; you must
42 # explicitly use the ``source'' command for it to be executed.
44 # The default for this option is the currently used muttrc file, or
45 # ``~/.muttrc'' if no user muttrc was found.
48 # set alias_format="%4n %2f %t %-10a %r"
52 # Default: "%4n %2f %t %-10a %r"
55 # Specifies the format of the data displayed for the `alias' menu. The
56 # following printf(3)-style sequences are available:
59 # %f flags - currently, a "d" for an alias marked for deletion
61 # %r address which alias expands to
62 # %t character which indicates if the alias is tagged for inclusion
72 # Controls whether 8-bit data is converted to 7-bit using either Quoted-
73 # Printable or Base64 encoding when sending mail.
83 # Controls whether ANSI color codes in messages (and color tags in
84 # rich text messages) are to be interpreted.
85 # Messages containing these codes are rare, but if this option is set,
86 # their text will be colored accordingly. Note that this may override
87 # your color choices, and even present a security problem, since a
88 # message could include a line like "[-- PGP output follows ..." and
89 # give it the same color as your attachment color.
99 # When set, an arrow (``->'') will be used to indicate the current entry
100 # in menus instead of highlighting the whole line. On slow network or modem
101 # links this will make response faster because there is less that has to
102 # be redrawn on the screen when moving to the next or previous entries
113 # If set, Mutt will use plain ASCII characters when displaying thread
114 # and attachment trees, instead of the default ACS characters.
124 # If set, Mutt will prompt you for blind-carbon-copy (Bcc) recipients
125 # before editing an outgoing message.
135 # If set, Mutt will prompt you for carbon-copy (Cc) recipients before
136 # editing the body of an outgoing message.
139 # set assumed_charset=""
141 # Name: assumed_charset
146 # This variable is a colon-separated list of character encoding
147 # schemes for messages without character encoding indication.
148 # Header field values and message body content without character encoding
149 # indication would be assumed that they are written in one of this list.
150 # By default, all the header fields and message body without any charset
151 # indication are assumed to be in "us-ascii".
153 # For example, Japanese users might prefer this:
155 # set assumed_charset="iso-2022-jp:euc-jp:shift_jis:utf-8"
157 # However, only the first content is valid for the message body.
160 # set attach_charset=""
162 # Name: attach_charset
167 # This variable is a colon-separated list of character encoding
168 # schemes for text file attachments.
169 # If unset, $charset value will be used instead.
170 # For example, the following configuration would work for Japanese
173 # set attach_charset="iso-2022-jp:euc-jp:shift_jis:utf-8"
175 # Note: "iso-2022-*" must be put at the head of the value as shown above

186 # This variable describes the format of the `attachment' menu. The
187 # following printf-style sequences are understood:
190 # %c requires charset conversion (n or c)
193 # %e MIME content-transfer-encoding
195 # %I disposition (I=inline, A=attachment)
198 # %n attachment number
199 # %Q "Q", if MIME part qualifies for attachment counting

204 # %X number of qualifying MIME parts in this part and its children
205 # (please see the ``attachments'' section for possible speed effects)
206 # %>X right justify the rest of the string and pad with character "X"
207 # %|X pad to the end of the line with character "X"
208 # %*X soft-fill with character "X" as pad
211 # For an explanation of `soft-fill', see the ``$index_format'' documentation.
214 # set attach_sep="\n"
221 # The separator to add between attachments when operating (saving,
222 # printing, piping, etc) on a list of tagged attachments.
225 # set attach_split=yes
232 # If this variable is unset, when operating (saving, printing, piping,
233 # etc) on a list of tagged attachments, Mutt will concatenate the
234 # attachments and will operate on them as a single attachment. The
235 # ``$attach_sep'' separator is added after each attachment. When set,
236 # Mutt will operate on the attachments one by one.
239 # set attribution="On %d, %n wrote:"
243 # Default: "On %d, %n wrote:"
246 # This is the string that will precede a message which has been included

259 # When set along with ``$edit_headers'', Mutt will skip the initial
260 # send-menu and allow you to immediately begin editing the body of your
261 # message. The send-menu may still be accessed once you have finished
262 # editing the body of your message.
264 # Also see ``$fast_reply''.
275 # When set, functions in the index menu which affect a message
276 # will be applied to all tagged messages (if there are any). When
277 # unset, you must first use the tag-prefix function (default: ";") to
278 # make the next function apply to all tagged messages.
288 # When this variable is set, mutt will beep when an error occurs.
299 # When this variable is set, mutt will beep whenever it prints a message
300 # notifying you of new mail. This is independent of the setting of the
301 # ``$beep'' variable.
311 # Controls whether you will be asked to confirm bouncing messages.
312 # If set to yes you don't get asked if you want to bounce a
313 # message. Setting this variable to no is not generally useful,
314 # and thus not recommended, because you are unable to bounce messages.
317 # set bounce_delivered=yes
319 # Name: bounce_delivered
324 # When this variable is set, mutt will include Delivered-To headers when
325 # bouncing messages. Postfix users may wish to unset this variable.

331 # set braille_friendly=no
333 # Name: braille_friendly
338 # When this variable is set, mutt will place the cursor at the beginning
339 # of the current line in menus, even when the arrow_cursor variable
340 # is unset, making it easier for blind persons using Braille displays to
341 # follow these menus. The option is disabled by default because many
342 # visual terminals don't permit making the cursor invisible.
345 # set check_mbox_size=no
347 # Name: check_mbox_size
352 # When this variable is set, mutt will use file size attribute instead of
353 # access time when checking for new mail.
363 # Character set your terminal uses to display and enter textual data.
364 # It is also the fallback for $send_charset.
374 # Note: this option only affects maildir and MH style
377 # When set, Mutt will check for new mail delivered while the
378 # mailbox is open. Especially with MH mailboxes, this operation can
379 # take quite some time since it involves scanning the directory and
380 # checking each file to see if it has already been looked at. If
381 # check_new is unset, no check for new mail is performed
382 # while the mailbox is open.
385 # set collapse_unread=yes
387 # Name: collapse_unread
392 # When unset, Mutt will not collapse a thread if it contains any
396 # set uncollapse_jump=no

409 # Name: compose_format
411 # Default: "-- Mutt: Compose [Approx. msg size: %l Atts: %a]%>-"
414 # Controls the format of the status line displayed in the Compose
415 # menu. This string is similar to ``$status_format'', but has its own
416 # set of printf()-like sequences:
418 # %a total number of attachments

453 # Name: confirmcreate
458 # When set, Mutt will prompt for confirmation when saving messages to a
459 # mailbox which does not yet exist before creating it.
462 # set connect_timeout=30
464 # Name: connect_timeout
469 # Causes Mutt to timeout a network connection (for IMAP or POP) after this
470 # many seconds if the connection is not able to be established. A negative
471 # value causes Mutt to wait indefinitely for the connection to succeed.
474 # set content_type="text/plain"
478 # Default: "text/plain"
481 # Sets the default Content-Type for the body of newly composed messages.
491 # This variable controls whether or not copies of your outgoing messages
492 # will be saved for later references. Also see ``$record'',
493 # ``$save_name'', ``$force_name'' and ``fcc-hook''.
497 # set crypt_use_gpgme=no
499 # Name: crypt_use_gpgme
504 # This variable controls the use of the GPGME-enabled crypto backends.
505 # If it is set and Mutt was built with gpgme support, the gpgme code for
506 # S/MIME and PGP will be used instead of the classic code. Note that
507 # you need to set this option in .muttrc; it won't have any effect when
508 # used interactively.
511 # set crypt_use_pka=no
513 # Name: crypt_use_pka

552 # Default: "!%a, %b %d, %Y at %I:%M:%S%p %Z"
555 # This variable controls the format of the date printed by the ``%d''
556 # sequence in ``$index_format''. This is passed to the strftime
557 # call to process the date. See the man page for strftime(3) for
560 # Unless the first character in the string is a bang (``!''), the month
561 # and week day names are expanded according to the locale specified in

569 # set default_hook="~f %s !~P | (~P ~C %s)"
573 # Default: "~f %s !~P | (~P ~C %s)"
576 # This variable controls how message-hooks, reply-hooks, send-hooks,
577 # send2-hooks, save-hooks, and fcc-hooks will
578 # be interpreted if they are specified with only a simple regexp,
579 # instead of a matching pattern. The hooks are expanded when they are
580 # declared, so a hook will be interpreted according to the value of this
581 # variable at the time the hook is declared. The default value matches
582 # if the message is either from a user matching the regular expression
583 # given, or if it is from you (if the from address matches
584 # ``alternates'') and is to or cc'ed to a user matching the given
585 # regular expression.
595 # Controls whether or not messages are really deleted when closing or
596 # synchronizing a mailbox. If set to yes, messages marked for
597 # deleting will automatically be purged without prompting. If set to
598 # no, messages marked for deletion will be kept in the mailbox.
602 # set delete_untag=yes
609 # If this option is set, mutt will untag messages when marking them
610 # for deletion. This applies when you either explicitly delete a message,
611 # or when you save it to another folder.
614 # set digest_collapse=yes
616 # Name: digest_collapse
621 # If this option is set, mutt's received-attachments menu will not show the subparts of
622 # individual messages in a multipart/digest. To see these subparts, press 'v' on that menu.
625 # set display_filter=""
627 # Name: display_filter
632 # When set, specifies a command used to filter messages. When a message
633 # is viewed it is passed as standard input to $display_filter, and the
634 # filtered message is read from the standard output.
637 # set dotlock_program="/usr/bin/mutt_dotlock"
639 # Name: dotlock_program
641 # Default: "/usr/bin/mutt_dotlock"
644 # Contains the path of the mutt_dotlock (8) binary to be used by
655 # This variable sets the request for when notification is returned. The
656 # string consists of a comma separated list (no spaces!) of one or more
657 # of the following: never, to never request notification,
658 # failure, to request notification on transmission failure,
659 # delay, to be notified of message delays, success, to be
660 # notified of successful transmission.
662 # Example: set dsn_notify="failure,delay"

667 # for DSN. For SMTP delivery, it depends on the server whether DSN is
678 # This variable controls how much of your message is returned in DSN
679 # messages. It may be set to either hdrs to return just the
680 # message header, or full to return the full message.
682 # Example: set dsn_return=hdrs
684 # Note: when using $sendmail for delivery, you should not enable
685 # this unless you are either using Sendmail 8.8.x or greater or a MTA

687 # for DSN. For SMTP delivery, it depends on the server whether DSN is
691 # set duplicate_threads=yes
693 # Name: duplicate_threads
698 # This variable controls whether mutt, when sorting by threads, threads
699 # messages with the same message-id together. If it is set, it will indicate
700 # that it thinks they are duplicates of each other with an equals sign
701 # in the thread diagram.
704 # set edit_headers=no
711 # This option allows you to edit the header of your outgoing messages
712 # along with the body of your message.
723 # This variable specifies which editor is used by mutt.
724 # It defaults to the value of the VISUAL, or EDITOR, environment
725 # variable, or to the string "/usr/bin/editor" if neither of those are set.
727 set editor="mailplate --edit --auto --keep-unknown"
736 # When set, mutt will quoted-printable encode messages when
737 # they contain the string "From " in the beginning of a line.
738 # Useful to avoid the tampering certain mail delivery and transport
739 # agents tend to do with messages.
742 # set envelope_from_address=""
744 # Name: envelope_from_address
745 # Type: e-mail address
749 # Manually sets the envelope sender for outgoing messages.
750 # This value is ignored if ``$use_envelope_from'' is unset.
760 # Escape character to use for functions in the builtin editor.
770 # When set, the initial prompt for recipients and subject are skipped
771 # when replying to messages, and the initial prompt for subject is
772 # skipped when forwarding messages.
774 # Note: this variable has no effect when the ``$autoedit''
786 # This variable controls whether or not attachments on outgoing messages
787 # are saved along with the main body of your message.
798 # When this variable is set, FCCs will be stored unencrypted and
799 # unsigned, even when the actual message is encrypted and/or
804 # set folder="~/Mail"
811 # Specifies the default location of your mailboxes. A `+' or `=' at the
812 # beginning of a pathname will be expanded to the value of this
813 # variable. Note that if you change this variable from the default
814 # value you need to make sure that the assignment occurs before
815 # you use `+' or `=' for any other variables since expansion takes place

822 # Name: folder_format
824 # Default: "%2C %t %N %F %2l %-8.8u %-8.8g %8s %d %f"
827 # This variable allows you to customize the file browser display to your
828 # personal taste. This string is similar to ``$index_format'', but has
829 # its own set of printf()-like sequences:

846 # For an explanation of `soft-fill', see the ``$index_format'' documentation.
849 # set followup_to=yes
856 # Controls whether or not the Mail-Followup-To header field is
857 # generated when sending mail. When set, Mutt will generate this
858 # field when you are replying to a known mailing list, specified with
859 # the ``subscribe'' or ``lists'' commands.
861 # This field has two purposes. First, preventing you from
862 # receiving duplicate copies of replies to messages which you send
863 # to mailing lists, and second, ensuring that you do get a reply
864 # separately for any messages sent to known lists to which you are
865 # not subscribed. The header will contain only the list's address
866 # for subscribed lists, and both the list address and your own
867 # email address for unsubscribed lists. Without this header, a
868 # group reply to your message sent to a subscribed list will be
869 # sent to both the list and your address, resulting in two copies
870 # of the same email for you.
880 # This variable is similar to ``$save_name'', except that Mutt will
881 # store a copy of your outgoing message by the username of the address
882 # you are sending to even if that mailbox does not exist.
884 # Also see the ``$record'' variable.
887 # set forward_decode=yes
889 # Name: forward_decode
894 # Controls the decoding of complex MIME messages into text/plain when
895 # forwarding a message. The message header is also RFC2047 decoded.
896 # This variable is only used, if ``$mime_forward'' is unset,
897 # otherwise ``$mime_forward_decode'' is used instead.
900 # set forward_edit=yes
907 # This quadoption controls whether or not the user is automatically
908 # placed in the editor when forwarding messages. For those who always want
909 # to forward with no modification, use a setting of ``no''.
912 # set forward_format="[%a: %s]"
914 # Name: forward_format
916 # Default: "[%a: %s]"
919 # This variable controls the default subject when forwarding a message.
920 # It uses the same format sequences as the ``$index_format'' variable.
923 # set forward_quote=no
925 # Name: forward_quote
930 # When set forwarded messages included in the main body of the
931 # message (when ``$mime_forward'' is unset) will be quoted using
932 # ``$indent_string''.
938 # Type: e-mail address
942 # When set, this variable contains a default from address. It
943 # can be overridden using my_hdr (including from send-hooks) and
944 # ``$reverse_name''. This variable is ignored if ``$use_from''
947 # Defaults to the contents of the environment variable EMAIL.
950 # set gecos_mask="^[^,]*"
953 # Type: regular expression
957 # A regular expression used by mutt to parse the GECOS field of a password
958 # entry when expanding the alias. By default the regular expression is set
959 # to "^[^,]*" which will return the string up to the first "," encountered.
960 # If the GECOS field contains a string like "lastname, firstname" then you
961 # should set the gecos_mask=".*".
963 # This can be useful if you see the following behavior: you address a e-mail
964 # to user ID stevef whose full name is Steve Franklin. If mutt expands
965 # stevef to "Franklin" stevef@foo.bar then you should set the gecos_mask to
966 # a regular expression that will match the whole name so mutt will expand
967 # "Franklin" to "Franklin, Steve".
977 # When unset, the header fields normally added by the ``my_hdr''
978 # command are not created. This variable must be unset before
979 # composing a new message or replying in order to take effect. If set,
980 # the user defined header fields are added to every new message.
990 # When set, this variable causes Mutt to include the header
991 # of the message you are replying to into the edit buffer.
992 # The ``$weed'' setting applies.
1002 # When set, help lines describing the bindings for the major functions
1003 # provided by each menu are displayed on the first line of the screen.
1005 # Note: The binding will not be displayed correctly if the
1006 # function is bound to a sequence rather than a single keystroke. Also,
1007 # the help line may not be updated if a binding is changed while Mutt is
1008 # running. Since this variable is primarily aimed at new users, neither
1009 # of these should present a major problem.
1012 # set hidden_host=no
1019 # When set, mutt will skip the host name part of ``$hostname'' variable
1020 # when adding the domain part to addresses. This variable does not

4035 # * = can be optionally printed if nonzero
4037 # Some of the above sequences can be used to optionally print a string
4038 # if their value is nonzero. For example, you may only want to see the
4039 # number of flagged messages if such messages exist, since zero is not
4040 # particularly meaningful. To optionally print a string based upon one
4041 # of the above sequences, the following construct is used:
4043 # %?<sequence_char>?<optional_string>?
4045 # where sequence_char is a character from the table above, and
4046 # optional_string is the string you would like printed if
4047 # sequence_char is nonzero. optional_string may contain
4048 # other sequences as well as normal text, but you may not nest
4051 # Here is an example illustrating how to optionally print the number of
4052 # new messages in a mailbox:
4053 # %?n?%n new messages.?
4055 # You can also switch between two strings using the following construct:
4057 # %?<sequence_char>?<if_string>&<else_string>?
4059 # If the value of sequence_char is non-zero, if_string will
4060 # be expanded, otherwise else_string will be expanded.
4062 # You can force the result of any printf-like sequence to be lowercase
4063 # by prefixing the sequence character with an underscore (_) sign.
4064 # For example, if you want to display the local hostname in lowercase,
4068 # If you prefix the sequence character with a colon (:) character, mutt
4069 # will replace any dots in the expansion by underscores. This might be helpful
4070 # with IMAP folders that don't like dots in folder names.

4111 # inside an xterm using a command like xterm -e mutt.

4121 # When set, mutt will generate text/plain; format=flowed attachments.
4122 # This format is easier to handle for some mailing software, and generally
4123 # just looks like ordinary text. To actually make use of this format's
4124 # features, you'll need support in your editor.

4172 # Along with ``read_inc'', ``write_inc'', and ``net_inc'', this
4173 # variable controls the frequency with which progress updates are
4174 # displayed. It suppresses updates less than ``time_inc'' milliseconds
4175 # apart. This can improve throughput on systems with slow terminals,
4176 # or when running mutt on a remote system.
4186 # When Mutt is waiting for user input either idleing in menus or
4187 # in an interactive prompt, Mutt would block until input is
4188 # present. Depending on the context, this would prevent certain
4189 # operations from working, like checking for new mail or keeping
4190 # an IMAP connection alive.
4192 # This variable controls how many seconds Mutt will at most wait
4193 # until it aborts waiting for input, performs these operations and
4194 # continues to wait for input.
4196 # A value of zero or less will cause Mutt to never time out.
4206 # This variable allows you to specify where Mutt will place its
4207 # temporary files needed for displaying and composing messages. If
4208 # this variable is not set, the environment variable TMPDIR is
4209 # used. If TMPDIR is not set then "/tmp" is used.
4212 # set to_chars=" +TCFL"
4219 # Controls the character used to indicate mail addressed to you. The
4220 # first character is the one used when the mail is NOT addressed to your
4221 # address (default: space). The second is used when you are the only
4222 # recipient of the message (default: +). The third is when your address
4223 # appears in the TO header field, but you are not the only recipient of
4224 # the message (default: T). The fourth character is used when your
4225 # address is specified in the CC header field, but you are not the only
4226 # recipient. The fifth character is used to indicate mail that was sent
4227 # by you. The sixth character is used to indicate when a mail
4228 # was sent to a mailing-list you subscribe to (default: L).
4238 # If set, this variable specifies the path of the trash folder where the
4239 # mails marked for deletion will be moved, instead of being irremediably
4242 # NOTE: When you delete a message in the trash folder, it is really
4243 # deleted, so that you have a way to clean the trash.
4253 # Setting this variable will cause mutt to open a pipe to a command
4254 # instead of a raw socket. You may be able to use this to set up
4255 # preauthenticated connections to your IMAP/POP3 server. Example:
4257 # tunnel="ssh -q mailhost.net /usr/local/libexec/imapd"

4275 # flag when sending 8-bit messages to enable ESMTP negotiation.
4278 # set use_domain=yes
4285 # When set, Mutt will qualify all local addresses (ones without the
4286 # @host portion) with the value of ``$hostname''. If unset, no
4287 # addresses will be qualified.
4290 # set use_envelope_from=no
4292 # Name: use_envelope_from
4297 # When set, mutt will set the envelope sender of the message.
4298 # If ``$envelope_from_address'' is set, it will be used as the sender
4299 # address. If not, mutt will attempt to derive the sender from the
4302 # Note that this information is passed to sendmail command using the
4303 # "-f" command line switch. Therefore setting this option is not useful
4304 # if the ``$sendmail'' variable already contains "-f" or if the
4305 # executable pointed to by $sendmail doesn't support the "-f" switch.
4315 # When set, Mutt will generate the `From:' header field when
4316 # sending messages. If unset, no `From:' header field will be
4317 # generated unless the user explicitly sets one using the ``my_hdr''
4328 # When set, Mutt will show you international domain names decoded.
4329 # Note: You can use IDNs for addresses even if this is unset.
4330 # This variable only affects decoding.
4340 # When set, Mutt will look for IPv6 addresses of hosts it tries to
4341 # contact. If this option is unset, Mutt will restrict itself to IPv4 addresses.
4342 # Normally, the default should work.
4345 # set user_agent=yes
4352 # When set, mutt will add a "User-Agent" header to outgoing
4353 # messages, indicating which version of mutt was used for composing
4364 # Specifies the visual editor to invoke when the ~v command is
4365 # given in the builtin editor.
4375 # Controls whether Mutt will ask you to press a key after shell-
4376 # escape, pipe-message, pipe-entry, print-message,
4377 # and print-entry commands.
4379 # It is also used when viewing attachments with ``auto_view'', provided
4380 # that the corresponding mailcap entry has a needsterminal flag,
4381 # and the external program is interactive.
4383 # When set, Mutt will always ask for a key. When unset, Mutt will wait
4384 # for a key only if the external command returned a non-zero status.
4395 # When set, mutt will weed headers when displaying, forwarding,
4396 # printing, or replying to messages.
4406 # When set to a positive value, mutt will wrap text at $wrap characters.
4407 # When set to a negative value, mutt will wrap text so that there are $wrap
4408 # characters of empty space on the right side of the terminal.
4412 # set wrap_search=yes
4419 # Controls whether searches wrap around the end of the mailbox.
4421 # When set, searches will wrap around the first (or last) message. When
4422 # unset, searches will not wrap.
4432 # (DEPRECATED) Equivalent to setting wrap with a negative value.
4442 # When writing a mailbox, a message will be printed every
4443 # write_inc messages to indicate progress. If set to 0, only a
4444 # single message will be displayed before writing a mailbox.
4446 # Also see the ``$read_inc'' variable.
4456 # Controls whether mutt writes out the Bcc header when preparing
4457 # messages to be sent. Exim users may wish to unset this. If mutt
4458 # is set to deliver directly via SMTP (see ``$smtp_url''), this
4459 # option does nothing: mutt will never write out the BCC header
