my_hdr cannot contain brackets or mutt variables



Hi,

I use mutt-1.5.9i. I tried to create a customized From: header by folder-hook:

folder-hook '+ml-private' my_hdr From: Bjoern Jacke (private) <foo@xxxxxxxxxxx>

but the resulting From header looks like:

From: Bjoern Jacke <foo@xxxxxxxxxxx>

the brackets and everything in it are cut out.

It's also not possible to write $realname into it like:

folder-hook '+ml-private' my_hdr From: $realname <foo@xxxxxxxxxxx>

also quoting the brackets or the $ does not make any difference.

Is that a Bug or feature?

PS: flea is no longer packaged with SuSE or Debian mutt packages and
   http://bugs.guug.de/Reporting results in this message:

What's the preferred way to report bugs for mutt 1.5.x these days?
