That did not seem to work for me, but set folder=imap://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ and mailboxes =INBOX does, at last, allow me to return to the INBOX via 'c' and tab. So I am making progress. Is there a way to move a message to another mailbox? I have only found 'C' and then 'd' to do this. Anyway, thanks for the help. I shall probably gradually get it all working now. UPDATE: I have been stuck for a day unable to send any messages from mutt (and something I did in mutt has upset kmail, so that option is gone (kmail cannot work out what folders are there -- keeps jumping back and forth between two interpretations of the folder list). I do not quite know where to look for the explanation of no outgoing mail from mutt. Outgoing mail from the command line goes with no problem. I assume something in the default mutt and/or the bits I cribbed from various sources is disagreeing with exim4. Or doesn't exim4 come into the sending of mail? I get so confused by these components. I have tried setting exim4 (with dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config) as internet server and as using smarthost (my ISP). Both work from command line. What log files should I be examining? -- richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
