Message-ID: <1206662265-sup-7439@cabinet> (raw)
Sorry if any of this has been discussed elsewhere. I've read the docs
on the website, skimmed the wiki, and skimmed the mailing list archives
for the past few months, but I could easily have missed something.
First, I ran into the same problem discussed in the thread "startup
crash" started on 2008-03-09. (I'm also running Gentoo and installed
the latest from portage) I poked around the source a bit, and it
seems that when AccountManager.initialize is called out of
Redwood::start (sup line 113), the code to set up the default
configuration (lib/sup.rb, starts at line 166) has *not* been called, so
the $config object is empty.
Just in case the information helps; I'm not a Ruby person (yet), and I
didn't poke around enough to be clear on how it's supposed to be
working.
2. sup is pretty cool. I'm particularly intrigued by this tag (sorry,
label) concept.
3. Is there an IRC channel? It would be nice to be able to lurk and
drop questions if anybody happens to be around.
4. I use maildir. Is there any way sup can mark messages as read (and,
perhaps more importantly, no longer new) once I've read them and hit
'$'? I can deal with mutt being confused (I know sup doesn't play well
with others anyway), but it's really confusing my mail monitor, and
that's bugging me.
5. Can sup be set to automatically poll local sources for new messages
every n seconds? Mutt does this, and it's nice not having to tell it
that I know there are new messages and it should go find them.
6. Mutt can pass text/html attachments through an external program and
display the result in its internal pager. Is there a way to get sup to
do the equivalent?
7. How does sup choose the email address to use as "From" when replying
to an email? It's definitely choosing the wrong thing in my setup. My
primary address forwards to gmail, sup is configured with the primary as
my :email:, but whenever I hit reply it sets "From" to be my gmail
address. I'd like it to be whatever alternate of mine is in To/CC if
any, and my primary address otherwise.
8. Is there any way to specify custom keybindings in a configuration
file, or would it require hacking the source?
8.1 I'd really like a one-touch reply-all like I had in mutt.
9. Is there a way to default to making all messages PGP-signed?
10. Is there (planned) a compose-hook? I'd like to be able to switch to
sign-and-encrypt when I have a public key for every recipient.
Thanks for the cool project. I'll probably have more "I miss this
feature from mutt" thoughts in the future, at least if I don't go
running back.
