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.

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.

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

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"
210 # set attach_sep="\n"
217 # The separator to add between attachments when operating (saving,
218 # printing, piping, etc) on a list of tagged attachments.
221 # set attach_split=yes
228 # If this variable is unset, when operating (saving, printing, piping,
229 # etc) on a list of tagged attachments, Mutt will concatenate the
230 # attachments and will operate on them as a single attachment. The
231 # ``$attach_sep'' separator is added after each attachment. When set,
232 # Mutt will operate on the attachments one by one.

260 # Also see ``$fast_reply''.
271 # When set, functions in the index menu which affect a message
272 # will be applied to all tagged messages (if there are any). When
273 # unset, you must first use the tag-prefix function (default: ";") to
274 # make the next function apply to all tagged messages.
284 # When this variable is set, mutt will beep when an error occurs.
295 # When this variable is set, mutt will beep whenever it prints a message
296 # notifying you of new mail. This is independent of the setting of the
297 # ``$beep'' variable.
307 # Controls whether you will be asked to confirm bouncing messages.
308 # If set to yes you don't get asked if you want to bounce a
309 # message. Setting this variable to no is not generally useful,
310 # and thus not recommended, because you are unable to bounce messages.
313 # set bounce_delivered=yes
315 # Name: bounce_delivered
320 # When this variable is set, mutt will include Delivered-To headers when
321 # bouncing messages. Postfix users may wish to unset this variable.

327 # set braille_friendly=no
329 # Name: braille_friendly
334 # When this variable is set, mutt will place the cursor at the beginning
335 # of the current line in menus, even when the arrow_cursor variable
336 # is unset, making it easier for blind persons using Braille displays to
337 # follow these menus. The option is disabled by default because many
338 # visual terminals don't permit making the cursor invisible.
341 # set check_mbox_size=no
343 # Name: check_mbox_size
348 # When this variable is set, mutt will use file size attribute instead of
349 # access time when checking for new mail.
359 # Character set your terminal uses to display and enter textual data.
369 # Note: this option only affects maildir and MH style
372 # When set, Mutt will check for new mail delivered while the
373 # mailbox is open. Especially with MH mailboxes, this operation can
374 # take quite some time since it involves scanning the directory and
375 # checking each file to see if it has already been looked at. If
376 # check_new is unset, no check for new mail is performed
377 # while the mailbox is open.

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

441 # When set, Mutt will prompt for confirmation when appending messages to
442 # an existing mailbox.
446 # set confirmcreate=yes
448 # Name: confirmcreate
453 # When set, Mutt will prompt for confirmation when saving messages to a

457 # set connect_timeout=30
459 # Name: connect_timeout
464 # Causes Mutt to timeout a network connection (for IMAP or POP) after this
465 # many seconds if the connection is not able to be established. A negative
466 # value causes Mutt to wait indefinitely for the connection to succeed.
469 # set content_type="text/plain"
473 # Default: "text/plain"
476 # Sets the default Content-Type for the body of newly composed messages.
486 # This variable controls whether or not copies of your outgoing messages

488 # ``$save_name'', ``$force_name'' and ``fcc-hook''.
492 # set crypt_use_gpgme=no
494 # Name: crypt_use_gpgme
499 # This variable controls the use of the GPGME-enabled crypto backends.
500 # If it is set and Mutt was built with gpgme support, the gpgme code for
501 # S/MIME and PGP will be used instead of the classic code. Note that
502 # you need to set this option in .muttrc; it won't have any effect when

550 # This variable controls the format of the date printed by the ``%d''
551 # sequence in ``$index_format''. This is passed to the strftime
552 # call to process the date. See the man page for strftime(3) for
555 # Unless the first character in the string is a bang (``!''), the month
556 # and week day names are expanded according to the locale specified in

559 # rest of the string are expanded in the C locale (that is in US
562 set date_format="%d %b %Y %T%Z"
564 # set default_hook="~f %s !~P | (~P ~C %s)"
568 # Default: "~f %s !~P | (~P ~C %s)"
571 # This variable controls how message-hooks, reply-hooks, send-hooks,
572 # send2-hooks, save-hooks, and fcc-hooks will
573 # be interpreted if they are specified with only a simple regexp,
574 # instead of a matching pattern. The hooks are expanded when they are
575 # declared, so a hook will be interpreted according to the value of this
576 # variable at the time the hook is declared. The default value matches
577 # if the message is either from a user matching the regular expression
578 # given, or if it is from you (if the from address matches
579 # ``alternates'') and is to or cc'ed to a user matching the given
580 # regular expression.
590 # Controls whether or not messages are really deleted when closing or
591 # synchronizing a mailbox. If set to yes, messages marked for
592 # deleting will automatically be purged without prompting. If set to
593 # no, messages marked for deletion will be kept in the mailbox.
597 # set delete_untag=yes
604 # If this option is set, mutt will untag messages when marking them
605 # for deletion. This applies when you either explicitly delete a message,
606 # or when you save it to another folder.
609 # set digest_collapse=yes
611 # Name: digest_collapse
616 # If this option is set, mutt's received-attachments menu will not show the subparts of
617 # individual messages in a multipart/digest. To see these subparts, press 'v' on that menu.
620 # set display_filter=""
622 # Name: display_filter
627 # When set, specifies a command used to filter messages. When a message
628 # is viewed it is passed as standard input to $display_filter, and the
629 # filtered message is read from the standard output.
632 # set dotlock_program="/usr/bin/mutt_dotlock"
634 # Name: dotlock_program
636 # Default: "/usr/bin/mutt_dotlock"
639 # Contains the path of the mutt_dotlock (8) binary to be used by
650 # Note: you should not enable this unless you are using Sendmail
653 # This variable sets the request for when notification is returned. The
654 # string consists of a comma separated list (no spaces!) of one or more
655 # of the following: never, to never request notification,
656 # failure, to request notification on transmission failure,
657 # delay, to be notified of message delays, success, to be
658 # notified of successful transmission.
660 # Example: set dsn_notify="failure,delay"
670 # Note: you should not enable this unless you are using Sendmail
673 # This variable controls how much of your message is returned in DSN
674 # messages. It may be set to either hdrs to return just the
675 # message header, or full to return the full message.
677 # Example: set dsn_return=hdrs
680 # set duplicate_threads=yes
682 # Name: duplicate_threads
687 # This variable controls whether mutt, when sorting by threads, threads
688 # messages with the same message-id together. If it is set, it will indicate
689 # that it thinks they are duplicates of each other with an equals sign
690 # in the thread diagram.
693 # set edit_headers=no
700 # This option allows you to edit the header of your outgoing messages
701 # along with the body of your message.
712 # This variable specifies which editor is used by mutt.
713 # It defaults to the value of the VISUAL, or EDITOR, environment
714 # variable, or to the string "/usr/bin/editor" if neither of those are set.
716 set editor="mailplate --edit --auto --keep-unknown"
725 # When set, mutt will quoted-printable encode messages when
726 # they contain the string "From " in the beginning of a line.
727 # Useful to avoid the tampering certain mail delivery and transport
728 # agents tend to do with messages.
731 # set envelope_from_address=""
733 # Name: envelope_from_address
734 # Type: e-mail address
738 # Manually sets the envelope sender for outgoing messages.
739 # This value is ignored if ``$use_envelope_from'' is unset.
749 # Escape character to use for functions in the builtin editor.
759 # When set, the initial prompt for recipients and subject are skipped
760 # when replying to messages, and the initial prompt for subject is
761 # skipped when forwarding messages.
763 # Note: this variable has no effect when the ``$autoedit''
775 # This variable controls whether or not attachments on outgoing messages
776 # are saved along with the main body of your message.
787 # When this variable is set, FCCs will be stored unencrypted and
788 # unsigned, even when the actual message is encrypted and/or
793 # set folder="~/Mail"
800 # Specifies the default location of your mailboxes. A `+' or `=' at the
801 # beginning of a pathname will be expanded to the value of this
802 # variable. Note that if you change this variable from the default
803 # value you need to make sure that the assignment occurs before
804 # you use `+' or `=' for any other variables since expansion takes place
805 # during the `set' command.
809 # set folder_format="%2C %t %N %F %2l %-8.8u %-8.8g %8s %d %f"
811 # Name: folder_format
813 # Default: "%2C %t %N %F %2l %-8.8u %-8.8g %8s %d %f"
816 # This variable allows you to customize the file browser display to your
817 # personal taste. This string is similar to ``$index_format'', but has
818 # its own set of printf()-like sequences:
820 # %C current file number
821 # %d date/time folder was last modified
823 # %F file permissions
824 # %g group name (or numeric gid, if missing)
825 # %l number of hard links

830 # %>X right justify the rest of the string and pad with character "X"
831 # %|X pad to the end of the line with character "X"
834 # set followup_to=yes
841 # Controls whether or not the Mail-Followup-To header field is
842 # generated when sending mail. When set, Mutt will generate this
843 # field when you are replying to a known mailing list, specified with
844 # the ``subscribe'' or ``lists'' commands.
846 # This field has two purposes. First, preventing you from
847 # receiving duplicate copies of replies to messages which you send
848 # to mailing lists, and second, ensuring that you do get a reply
849 # separately for any messages sent to known lists to which you are
850 # not subscribed. The header will contain only the list's address
851 # for subscribed lists, and both the list address and your own
852 # email address for unsubscribed lists. Without this header, a
853 # group reply to your message sent to a subscribed list will be
854 # sent to both the list and your address, resulting in two copies
855 # of the same email for you.
865 # This variable is similar to ``$save_name'', except that Mutt will
866 # store a copy of your outgoing message by the username of the address
867 # you are sending to even if that mailbox does not exist.
869 # Also see the ``$record'' variable.
872 # set forward_decode=yes
874 # Name: forward_decode
879 # Controls the decoding of complex MIME messages into text/plain when
880 # forwarding a message. The message header is also RFC2047 decoded.
881 # This variable is only used, if ``$mime_forward'' is unset,
882 # otherwise ``$mime_forward_decode'' is used instead.
885 # set forward_edit=yes
892 # This quadoption controls whether or not the user is automatically
893 # placed in the editor when forwarding messages. For those who always want
894 # to forward with no modification, use a setting of ``no''.
897 # set forward_format="[%a: %s]"
899 # Name: forward_format
901 # Default: "[%a: %s]"
904 # This variable controls the default subject when forwarding a message.
905 # It uses the same format sequences as the ``$index_format'' variable.
908 # set forward_quote=no
910 # Name: forward_quote
915 # When set forwarded messages included in the main body of the
916 # message (when ``$mime_forward'' is unset) will be quoted using
917 # ``$indent_string''.
923 # Type: e-mail address
927 # When set, this variable contains a default from address. It
928 # can be overridden using my_hdr (including from send-hooks) and
929 # ``$reverse_name''. This variable is ignored if ``$use_from''
932 # Defaults to the contents of the environment variable EMAIL.
934 set from='martin f krafft <madduck@madduck.net>'
936 # set gecos_mask="^[^,]*"
939 # Type: regular expression
943 # A regular expression used by mutt to parse the GECOS field of a password
944 # entry when expanding the alias. By default the regular expression is set
945 # to "^[^,]*" which will return the string up to the first "," encountered.
946 # If the GECOS field contains a string like "lastname, firstname" then you
947 # should set the gecos_mask=".*".
949 # This can be useful if you see the following behavior: you address a e-mail
950 # to user ID stevef whose full name is Steve Franklin. If mutt expands
951 # stevef to "Franklin" stevef@foo.bar then you should set the gecos_mask to
952 # a regular expression that will match the whole name so mutt will expand
953 # "Franklin" to "Franklin, Steve".
963 # When unset, the header fields normally added by the ``my_hdr''
964 # command are not created. This variable must be unset before
965 # composing a new message or replying in order to take effect. If set,
966 # the user defined header fields are added to every new message.
976 # When set, this variable causes Mutt to include the header
977 # of the message you are replying to into the edit buffer.
978 # The ``$weed'' setting applies.
988 # When set, help lines describing the bindings for the major functions
989 # provided by each menu are displayed on the first line of the screen.
991 # Note: The binding will not be displayed correctly if the
992 # function is bound to a sequence rather than a single keystroke. Also,
993 # the help line may not be updated if a binding is changed while Mutt is
994 # running. Since this variable is primarily aimed at new users, neither
995 # of these should present a major problem.
1005 # When set, mutt will skip the host name part of ``$hostname'' variable
1006 # when adding the domain part to addresses. This variable does not
1007 # affect the generation of Message-IDs, and it will not lead to the
1008 # cut-off of first-level domains.

3815 # mailbox-order (unsorted)
3823 # You may optionally use the reverse- prefix to specify reverse sorting
3824 # order (example: set sort=reverse-date-sent).

3852 # When sorting by threads, this variable controls how threads are sorted
3853 # in relation to other threads, and how the branches of the thread trees
3854 # are sorted. This can be set to any value that ``$sort'' can, except
3855 # threads (in that case, mutt will just use date-sent). You can also
3856 # specify the last- prefix in addition to the reverse- prefix, but last-
3857 # must come after reverse-. The last- prefix causes messages to be
3858 # sorted against its siblings by which has the last descendant, using
3859 # the rest of sort_aux as an ordering. For instance, set sort_aux=last-
3860 # date-received would mean that if a new message is received in a
3861 # thread, that thread becomes the last one displayed (or the first, if
3862 # you have set sort=reverse-threads.) Note: For reversed ``$sort''
3863 # order $sort_aux is reversed again (which is not the right thing to do,

3884 # order (example: set sort_browser=reverse-date).
3894 # This variable is only useful when sorting by threads with
3895 # ``$strict_threads'' unset. In that case, it changes the heuristic

3897 # only attach a message as the child of another message by subject if
3898 # the subject of the child message starts with a substring matching the
3899 # setting of ``$reply_regexp''. With sort_re unset, mutt will attach

3943 # that mailbox (You can toggle whether to write changes to a mailbox
3944 # with the toggle-write operation, bound by default to "%"). The fourth

3989 # Some of the above sequences can be used to optionally print a string
3990 # if their value is nonzero. For example, you may only want to see the
3991 # number of flagged messages if such messages exist, since zero is not
3992 # particularly meaningful. To optionally print a string based upon one
3993 # of the above sequences, the following construct is used:
3995 # %?<sequence_char>?<optional_string>?
3997 # where sequence_char is a character from the table above, and
3998 # optional_string is the string you would like printed if
3999 # sequence_char is nonzero. optional_string may contain
4000 # other sequences as well as normal text, but you may not nest
4003 # Here is an example illustrating how to optionally print the number of
4004 # new messages in a mailbox:
4005 # %?n?%n new messages.?
4007 # You can also switch between two strings using the following construct:
4009 # %?<sequence_char>?<if_string>&<else_string>?
4011 # If the value of sequence_char is non-zero, if_string will
4012 # be expanded, otherwise else_string will be expanded.
4014 # You can force the result of any printf-like sequence to be lowercase
4015 # by prefixing the sequence character with an underscore (_) sign.
4016 # For example, if you want to display the local hostname in lowercase,
4020 # If you prefix the sequence character with a colon (:) character, mutt

4044 # If set, threading will only make use of the ``In-Reply-To'' and
4045 # ``References'' fields when you ``$sort'' by message threads. By
4046 # default, messages with the same subject are grouped together in
4047 # ``pseudo threads.''. This may not always be desirable, such as in a
4048 # personal mailbox where you might have several unrelated messages with
4049 # the subject ``hi'' which will get grouped together. See also
4050 # ``$sort_re'' for a less drastic way of controlling this
4061 # When unset, mutt won't stop when the user presses the terminal's
4062 # susp key, usually ``control-Z''. This is useful if you run mutt
4063 # inside an xterm using a command like xterm -e mutt.
4066 # set text_flowed=no
4073 # When set, mutt will generate text/plain; format=flowed attachments.
4074 # This format is easier to handle for some mailing software, and generally
4075 # just looks like ordinary text. To actually make use of this format's
4076 # features, you'll need support in your editor.
4078 # Note that $indent_string is ignored when this option is set.

4094 # Name: thorough_search
4099 # Affects the ~b and ~h search operations described in
4100 # section ``patterns'' above. If set, the headers and attachments of
4101 # messages to be searched are decoded before searching. If unset,
4102 # messages are searched as they appear in the folder.
4104 set thorough_search=yes
4113 # When set, the internal-pager will pad blank lines to the bottom of the
4114 # screen with a tilde (~).
4124 # This variable controls the number of seconds Mutt will wait
4125 # for a key to be pressed in the main menu before timing out and
4126 # checking for new mail. A value of zero or less will cause Mutt
4127 # to never time out.
4137 # This variable allows you to specify where Mutt will place its
4138 # temporary files needed for displaying and composing messages. If
4139 # this variable is not set, the environment variable TMPDIR is
4140 # used. If TMPDIR is not set then "/tmp" is used.
4144 # set to_chars=" +TCFL"
4151 # Controls the character used to indicate mail addressed to you. The
4152 # first character is the one used when the mail is NOT addressed to your
4153 # address (default: space). The second is used when you are the only
4154 # recipient of the message (default: +). The third is when your address
4155 # appears in the TO header field, but you are not the only recipient of
4156 # the message (default: T). The fourth character is used when your
4157 # address is specified in the CC header field, but you are not the only
4158 # recipient. The fifth character is used to indicate mail that was sent
4159 # by you. The sixth character is used to indicate when a mail
4160 # was sent to a mailing-list you subscribe to (default: L).
4170 # If set, this variable specifies the path of the trash folder where the
4171 # mails marked for deletion will be moved, instead of being irremediably
4174 # NOTE: When you delete a message in the trash folder, it is really
4175 # deleted, so that you have a way to clean the trash.
4185 # Setting this variable will cause mutt to open a pipe to a command
4186 # instead of a raw socket. You may be able to use this to set up
4187 # preauthenticated connections to your IMAP/POP3 server. Example:
4189 # tunnel="ssh -q mailhost.net /usr/local/libexec/imapd"

4192 # machine without having to enter a password.

4203 # of sendmail which supports the -B8BITMIME flag (such as sendmail
4204 # 8.8.x) or you may not be able to send mail.
4206 # When set, Mutt will invoke ``$sendmail'' with the -B8BITMIME
4207 # flag when sending 8-bit messages to enable ESMTP negotiation.
4210 # set use_domain=yes
4217 # When set, Mutt will qualify all local addresses (ones without the
4218 # @host portion) with the value of ``$hostname''. If unset, no
4219 # addresses will be qualified.
4222 # set use_envelope_from=no
4224 # Name: use_envelope_from
4229 # When set, mutt will use ``$envelope_from_address'' as the
4230 # envelope sender if that is set, otherwise it will attempt to
4231 # derive it from the "From:" header. Note that this information is passed
4232 # to sendmail command using the "-f" command line switch, so don't set this
4233 # option if you are using that switch in $sendmail yourself,
4234 # or if the sendmail on your machine doesn't support that command
4245 # When set, Mutt will generate the `From:' header field when
4246 # sending messages. If unset, no `From:' header field will be
4247 # generated unless the user explicitly sets one using the ``my_hdr''
4258 # When set, Mutt will show you international domain names decoded.
4259 # Note: You can use IDNs for addresses even if this is unset.
4260 # This variable only affects decoding.
4270 # When set, Mutt will look for IPv6 addresses of hosts it tries to
4271 # contact. If this option is unset, Mutt will restrict itself to IPv4 addresses.
4272 # Normally, the default should work.
4275 # set user_agent=yes
4282 # When set, mutt will add a "User-Agent" header to outgoing
4283 # messages, indicating which version of mutt was used for composing
4294 # Specifies the visual editor to invoke when the ~v command is
4295 # given in the builtin editor.
4305 # Controls whether Mutt will ask you to press a key after shell-
4306 # escape, pipe-message, pipe-entry, print-message,
4307 # and print-entry commands.
4309 # It is also used when viewing attachments with ``auto_view'', provided
4310 # that the corresponding mailcap entry has a needsterminal flag,
4311 # and the external program is interactive.
4313 # When set, Mutt will always ask for a key. When unset, Mutt will wait
4314 # for a key only if the external command returned a non-zero status.
4325 # When set, mutt will weed headers when displaying, forwarding,
4326 # printing, or replying to messages.
4336 # When set to a positive value, mutt will wrap text at $wrap characters.
4337 # When set to a negative value, mutt will wrap text so that there are $wrap
4338 # characters of empty space on the right side of the terminal.
4342 # set wrap_search=yes
4349 # Controls whether searches wrap around the end of the mailbox.
4351 # When set, searches will wrap around the first (or last) message. When
4352 # unset, searches will not wrap.
4362 # (DEPRECATED) Equivalent to setting wrap with a negative value.
4372 # When writing a mailbox, a message will be printed every
4373 # write_inc messages to indicate progress. If set to 0, only a
4374 # single message will be displayed before writing a mailbox.
4376 # Also see the ``$read_inc'' variable.
4386 # Controls whether mutt writes out the Bcc header when preparing
4387 # messages to be sent. Exim users may wish to unset this. If mutt
4388 # is set to deliver directly via SMTP (see ``$smtp_url''), this
4389 # option does nothing: mutt will never write out the BCC header
4392 # Note: On Debian systems, exim4 and postfix strip BCC headers by
4393 # default. The above warning applies to exim3 users, see /etc/Muttrc.
