Speaking of similar things, I see a lot of macros on this list, and I
have not used them yet. I wanted to set Fcc: to the folder I am
mailing from, and tried doing this for each folder:
folder-hook mutt "set record=~/Maildirs/mutt/"
It did nothing that I could see and I had forgotten all about it until
I saw this thread. Are these the kinds of things better solved by
macros, or does your To: example require a macro because mutt has no
specific function like it does for "record"?
And is there no way to make one macro (or one "set record") for all
cases, or do you have to define one for everything?
