Thanks very much for this, however, I get an error, when I do the following:

 folder-hook .      'unset smtp_url'; 'set strict_threads=no'
 folder-hook '(mutt|fedora|postfix|fetchmail|openbox)' 'set from =
email at address.com; set smtp_url="something"; set smtp_pass="somethingelse"; set
 envelope_from_address="email at address.com"; set use_envelope_from=yes; set from = "email at address.com"; my_hdr Bcc:; set forward_format = "[FW frm %a:%s]";set realname = "Real Name"; set ssl_force_tls = yes; set ssl_starttls = yes'; 'set strict_threads=yes'

When I go to the mutt folder, I get:

 Error in /home/email/.muttrc, line 286: set strict_threads=no: unknown command
 Error in /home/email/.muttrc, line 288: set strict_threads=yes: unknown command
 source: errors in /home/email/.muttrc

Is my syntax incorrect here? Am I missing some other package/mutt helper?

Many thanks,
Ranjan
