Who's the maintainer of the mutt package?
I think some of us would love to see the new mutt 1.4 as part of
cygwin.

Tom,

Please use the mailing-list archives.  This subject has been discussed in
the past.  I'm sure when Jason is ready to, he will release mutt-1.4. 
Until then, might I suggest pine?

Cheers,
Nicholas

mutt builds OOTB now.  I recommend that you at least attempt to build it
yourself.

I find that I don't use all of the features Jason includes.
Consequently, my build is a good bit faster on my older (200MHz)
machine.

mutt --version 

will give you starting points for all the build options.

YMMV, of course, and when I put a copy on a faster machine, I'm likely
not to care about the fairly small performance difference.

Umm...  I am not the Cygwin mutt maintainer.

Although, I have been considering trying to wrestle it away from
Gary. :,)  Since I already maintain Cygwin fetchmail and procmail
and I'm a "heavy" Cygwin mutt user, this may make sense...

Doh!

Talking and typing at the same time...  Sorry Jason... :-)

Cheers,

Well, sort of.  OOTB it will work only as long as you have all binary mounts.
Text mounts give it fits.

I've been considering the exact same thing, but I was a bit reluctant to breach
the subject, as your cup already looks like it overfloweth ;-).  But if you'd be
willing to maintain it, I'd be more than happy to step down.  Mutt deserves much
more attention than I've been able to give it, and now with working fetchmail
and procmail and the associated potential interoperability issues, I completely
agree that it would make sense for you to take over.

Plus, that'll give me more time to not work on setup. ;-)

That's been my main problem I guess; I'm *not* a heavy mutt user, I just use it
occaisionally to send emails from scripts.  I got it to the point where that
works reliably from text mounts and then dereliction of duty set in.

Let's do this (again, if you're willing to take over):  No Sleep 'Til 1.4.  I
don't hit the sack tonight until I've finished and uploaded the mutt-1.4-1
package.  That'll be my swan song, and then if everybody's in agreement and we
can get all the proper clearances, mutt and hence all of Cygwin's mail
functionality is Tishler territory forevermore ;-).

Gary,

Sorry for the sluggish response time -- it is not for a lack of
interest...

It is and my shop vac and sump pump are broken too! :,)

I am willing with the caveat below.

I didn't know that you have already dealt with the text vs. binary mode
issues.  This is good news.

I'm really backed up right now.  Would you be willing to deal with the
currently reported problems?

    o source package seems to be broken
      http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-07/msg01097.html

    o read-only mbox problem under Windows 9x/Me
      http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-07/msg00963.html

    o lock count exceeded problem
      http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-07/msg01097.html

I'm willing (without coercion) to assume maintainership after the above
have been resolved.  Otherwise, I'm still willing to assume
maintainership but I cannot guarantee when the above will be resolved.

BTW, does your mutt build display international characters correctly?
Mine does not.

Thanks,
Jason

That's gotta be one heck of a mess! ;-)

I've dealt with the ones I know about, which means mainly getting sending,
receiving, attachments, viewing, and editing working (wow, that sounds like I
did a lot! ;-)).  I have not even looked at things like PGP, fetchmail, or
sendmail interaction.

Fixed, that was just an upload problem.

This one's got me a bit stymied at the moment.

Looking into this one now.

Good point, I haven't checked yet.  Well, ok, I'll do one more release before
retiring the jersey ;-).
