Weeding headers in generally impossible by design when mime_forward is set without getting rid of the message/rfc822 content-type, which would kinda defeat the whole purpose of mime_forward. The "right" solution is for the recipient to only show the headers that the user wants to see, as it probably already does for the outer email. Sadly, if that recipient happens to be a Mutt user, he's out of luck unless he uses a static weed set, since message-hooks aren't called for message/rfc822 attachments. > When I forward with mime_forward=no the headers are weeded. ...which is hardly surprising - it simply indicates that Mutt works ;-) > I have also > have set this in muttrc: > set weed=yes hence the lack of surprise ;-) > Is there an option I can use here? As I pointed out, weeding headers can confuse smart MUAs, and may even void the message/rfc822 content-type, possibly even causing think-they're-smart MUAs to crash while trying to parse the attachment. > I use mutt version 1.5.6i. That's a bad version. Get CVS. (Search Google for a web-based version of the CVS ChangeLog since 1.5.6i was released, and you'll see what I'm talking about - many bugs resolved. I tend to find CVS HEAD to be the most stable Mutt version, period, FWIW.) - Dave -- Uncle Cosmo, why do they call this a word processor? It's simple, Skyler.
