I have reported about the following problem on Feb 05th, but no one
had a solution. For me, it looks like that this is not my bad
configuration, but an unintended behavior of mutt (=> BUG). Am I
correct or not?
Problem:
Intended is a BCC to 'my@address\.de' on all mails except on mails that
are sent to 'my@address\.de' in the TO field.
The bcc header is set correctly (no matter if an alias or typed in), but
is only valid for all following mails and NOT the one I am composing
at that moment. So, I have a delayed reaction of one mail composition.
I have attached a reduced muttrc, mail_alias and a version file.
The most important part is this:
send-hook '~t my@address\.de' 'unmy_hdr bcc'
send-hook '!~t my@address\.de' 'my_hdr Bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]'
On starting mutt, use 'm' and try the following addresses in the 'To:'
question (subject does not matter, abort mail in composer editor):
Setting: Result:
my no bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] no bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bcc
my no bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] no bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] no bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bcc
However, it should be like this:
my no bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] no bcc
my no bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] no bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bcc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bcc
