Re: using cvs



Hi,

Thanks for the cvs answers, now I just have to figure out how to compile and make sure there is no dependency problem (which I experienced when first trying to follow the Makefile instructions) More on this might come later, or maybe it's better to contact the gote-admin?

Well in the case of my headers eventually crashing Matus' mailfiltering, I have now removed them. And I must admit that it was a kind of stupid thing to do, I just wanted to learn mutt, and playing around I found a way of creating my own headers. Three of them where lousy, I know. But the fourth, namely:

character-encoding: ISO 8859-1

Seems like a god idea, since we don't all use the same, and I've seen some bizarr guessings on what language some postings are written in. (Maybe this is to no help, maybe I'm just babbling...
