Subject: RMAIL settings [was: Re: w32 does not have emacsclient/server]

Message-ID: <m1E1MmA-0004QmC@rattlesnake.com> (raw)
... some of us just do not know how to do it. Could those of you
that are using some mail client in Emacs on w32 ...
Microsoft is a corporation that endeavors to restrict both your
economic freedom and mine. By that decision it has decided to require
either that I behave illegally or that I transfer resources to it in a
non-economic fashion. I have not done either and cannot help you
directly. But in GNU/Linux, here are the RMAIL and mail setting that
I specify in my .emacs file.
You might adapt these:
;; Specify local inbox
(setq rmail-primary-inbox-list '("/var/mail/bob"))
;; Do this to get mail directly from remote and local mail boxes:
;; (setq rmail-primary-inbox-list '("po:bob:fp.gnu.org" "/var/mail/bob"))
;; (setq rmail-pop-password-required t)
;; (setq rmail-pop-password "XXX")
;; (setq rmail-preserve-inbox nil)
;; Set this value so that the From field is correct
(setq mail-host-address "bob@rattlesnake.com")
;; You must also set `user-mail-address' so that the From field is correct.
(setq user-mail-address "bob@rattlesnake.com")
;; Set the `reply-to' field for mail so people don't automatically
;; reply to root rather than bob when I am using root.
(setq mail-default-reply-to "bob@rattlesnake.com")
;; Do not automatically delete a message after it is copied to
;; another file using `o'.
(setq rmail-delete-after-output nil)
;; Do not ask for confirmation when expunging
(setq rmail-confirm-expunge nil)
;; Automatically display summary
(setq rmail-display-summary t)
My mail-user-agent's value is sendmail-user-agent, which is the
default.
