This is useful for reading, writing, replying to, saving, and deleting your email. &lfs91_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &mutt-md5sum; Download size: &mutt-size; Estimated disk space required: &mutt-buildsize; Estimated build time: &mutt-time; Mutt Dependencies Optional , , , , , , , , an (that provides a sendmail command), , , libgssapi, Mixmaster, QDBM or Tokyo Cabinet Optional (To Regenerate HTML Documentation) and either , W3m, or ELinks User Notes: Mutt requires a group named mail. You can add this group, if it does not exist, with this command: groupadd -g 34 mail If you did not install an , you need to modify the ownership of /var/mail with this command: chgrp -v mail /var/mail Mutt will rebuild the html documentation if libxslt is present, then use that to update the text manual - even if none of the specified browsers are present. That will create an empty text file, so we will save the shipped file. Install Mutt by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --with-docdir=/usr/share/doc/mutt-&mutt-version; \ --with-ssl \ --enable-external-dotlock \ --enable-pop \ --enable-imap \ --enable-hcache \ --enable-sidebar && make This package does not come with a test suite. Now, as the root user: make install If you used a DESTDIR method to only install to a temporary location as a regular user (as part of a package menagement process), you will need to run the following as the root user after completing the real install: chown root:mail /usr/bin/mutt_dotlock && chmod -v 2755 /usr/bin/mutt_dotlock An info file is now installed, so you will also need to recreate the /usr/share/info/dir as described when Texinfo was installed in LFS. --enable-external-dotlock: In some circumstances the mutt-dotlock program is not created. This switch ensures it is always created. --enable-pop: This switch enables POP3 support. --enable-imap: This switch enables IMAP support. --enable-hcache: This switch enables header caching. --enable-sidebar: This switch enables support for the sidebar (a list of mailboxes). It is off by default, but can be turned on by :set sidebar_visible in mutt (and off again with ':unset'), or it can be enabled in ~/.muttrc. --with-ssl: This parameter adds SSL/TLS support from openssl in POP3/IMAP/SMTP. --enable-autocrypt --with-sqlite3: These two switches add support for passive protection against data collection, using gnupg and gpgme (gpgme is enabled by autocrypt). See The Manual. --enable-gpgme: This switch enables GPG support through the GPGME package. Use this switch if you want GPG support in Mutt. --enable-smtp: This switch enables SMTP relay support. --with-idn2: Use this parameter if both libidn and libidn2 have been installed, and you wish to use libidn2 here. --with-sasl: This parameter adds authentication support from in POP3/IMAP/SMTP if they are enabled. Depending on the server configuration, this may not be needed for POP3 or IMAP. However, it is needed for SMTP authentication. /etc/Muttrc, ~/.muttrc, /etc/mime.types, and ~/.mime.types /etc/Muttrc ~/.muttrc /etc/mime.types ~/.mime.types No changes in these files are necessary to begin using Mutt. When you are ready to make changes, the man page for muttrc is a good starting place. In order to utilize GnuPG, use the following command: cat /usr/share/doc/mutt-&mutt-version;/samples/gpg.rc >> ~/.muttrc Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories flea, mutt, mutt_dotlock, muttbug, pgpewrap, pgpring, and smime_keys None /usr/share/doc/mutt-&mutt-version; Short Descriptions flea is a script showing where to report bugs. flea mutt is a Mail User Agent (MUA) which enables you to read, write and delete your email. mutt mutt_dotlock implements the mail spool file lock. mutt_dotlock muttbug is a script identical to flea. muttbug pgpewrap prepares a command line for the utilities. pgpewrap pgpring is a key ring dumper for PGP.
