I haven't followed your thread at all but maybe this will help set editor="/usr/bin/emacs -nw -l .emacs.mutt" from my .muttrc note the following: -nw specifies a cli version of emacs as opposed to a windowed version. -l .emacs.mutt loads my emacs configuration for use with mutt, but I leave that for you to figure out. hth A -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
