Hello. Coming back to mutt after a very long time.
I've never been able to make it work with Gmail accounts. I still can't.
I'm trying this:
folder-hook gmail 'set realname="Just Me"'
folder-hook gmail 'set from="username at gmail.com"'
folder-hook gmail 'set use_from=yes'
folder-hook gmail 'set envelope_from=yes'
folder-hook gmail 'set smtp_url = "smtps://username@gmail.com@smtp.gmail.com:465/"'
folder-hook gmail 'set smtp_pass = "mypassword"'
folder-hook gmail 'set imap_user = "username at gmail.com"'
folder-hook gmail 'set imap_pass = "mypassword"'
folder-hook gmail 'set folder = "imaps://imap.gmail.com:993"'
folder-hook gmail 'set spoolfile = "$HOME/Mail/gmail"'
folder-hook gmail 'set ssl_force_tls = yes'
macro index "3" "<change-folder>/root/Mail/gmail<enter><imap-fetch-mail>"
This exact procedure works fine with two other accounts except they're
POP3, not IMAP.
I press 3 and mutt opens the gmail folder, but then nothing happens.
So I tried a command:
:imap-fetch-mail
and mutt tells me:
imap-fetch-mail: unknown command
Then I try
:fetch-mail
and mutt tells me:
fetch-mail: unknown command
What am I doing wrong?
