Hi

2 questions for the list

1) I keep all my mailing lists in different folders, is it possible to
setup mutt to automatically place the list address in the TO field when
I am in that folder and then to go back to normal when I leave that
folder

2) I use vim to edit me emails, how do I write a script such that it
takes the highlighted lines deletes them and then inserts

[snip]


Thanks

Alex

Yes, it's possible (using folder hooks). But I usually use shift-l for
list-reply when I want to reply to the list.

so whilst viewing an email, I press shift-l, this starts vim with the
emails, I then use up and down arrows and v to highlight some text, I
would then like to press <some key combo> and have the text replaced by
