Pretty much correct. ('source' simply reads another file; that file can contain any mutt configuration option, not just aliases)
| Is it possible to have mutt *write* to the alias file I spec'd ??
set alias_file="~/.muttrc.aliases"
Doh !! Figured it was something simple... I actually just "borrowed" the 'source' entry from another .muttrc file, but don't recall a 'set' entry, and would have thought it would function the way I was asking about.
Thanks ! Hall
