Mutt supports several of optional features which can be enabled or
disabled at compile-time by giving the <span class="emphasis"><em>configure</em></span>
script certain arguments. These are listed in the <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Optional
features</span>”</span> section of the <span class="emphasis"><em>configure --help</em></span>
output.
</p><p>
Which features are enabled or disabled can later be determined from the
output of <code class="literal">mutt -v</code>. If a compile option starts with
<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">+</span>”</span> it is enabled and disabled if prefixed with
<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">-</span>”</span>. For example, if Mutt was compiled using GnuTLS for
encrypted communication instead of OpenSSL, <code class="literal">mutt -v</code>
would contain:
</p><pre class="screen">
-USE_SSL_OPENSSL +USE_SSL_GNUTLS</pre></div><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="url-syntax"></a>1.2. URL Syntax</h3></div></div></div><p>
Mutt optionally supports the IMAP, POP3 and SMTP protocols which require
to access servers using URLs. The canonical syntax for specifying URLs
in Mutt is (an item enclosed in <code class="literal">[]</code> means it is
optional and may be omitted):
</p><pre class="screen">
proto[s]://[username[:password]@]server[:port][/path]
</pre><p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>proto</em></span> is the communication protocol:
<code class="literal">imap</code> for IMAP, <code class="literal">pop</code> for POP3 and
<code class="literal">smtp</code> for SMTP. If <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">s</span>”</span> for <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">secure
communication</span>”</span> is appended, Mutt will attempt to establish an
encrypted communication using SSL or TLS.
</p><p>
Since all protocols supported by Mutt support/require authentication,
login credentials may be specified in the URL. This has the advantage
that multiple IMAP, POP3 or SMTP servers may be specified (which isn't
possible using, for example, <a class="link" href="reference.html#imap-user" title="3.151. imap_user">$imap_user</a>). The username may contain the
<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">@</span>”</span> symbol being used by many mail systems as part of the
login name. The special characters <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">/</span>”</span>
(<code class="literal">%2F</code>), <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">:</span>”</span> (<code class="literal">%3A</code>) and
<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">%</span>”</span> (<code class="literal">%25</code>) have to be URL-encoded in
usernames using the <code class="literal">%</code>-notation.
</p><p>
A password can be given, too but is not recommended if the URL is
specified in a configuration file on disk.
</p><p>
If no port number is given, Mutt will use the system's default for the
given protocol (usually consulting <code class="literal">/etc/services</code>).
</p><p>
The optional path is only relevant for IMAP and ignored elsewhere.
</p><div class="example"><a id="ex-url"></a><p class="title"><strong>Example 6.1. URLs</strong></p><div class="example-contents"><pre class="screen">
pops://host/
imaps://user@host/INBOX/Sent
smtp://user@host:587/
</pre></div></div><br class="example-break" /></div></div><div class="sect1"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="ssl"></a>2. SSL/TLS Support</h2></div></div></div><p>
If Mutt is compiled with IMAP, POP3 and/or SMTP support, it can also be
compiled with support for SSL or TLS using either OpenSSL or GnuTLS ( by
running the <span class="emphasis"><em>configure</em></span> script with the
<span class="emphasis"><em>--enable-ssl=...</em></span> option for OpenSSL or
<span class="emphasis"><em>--enable-gnutls=...</em></span> for GnuTLS). Mutt can then
attempt to encrypt communication with remote servers if these protocols
are suffixed with <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">s</span>”</span> for <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">secure
communication</span>”</span>.
</p><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="starttls"></a>2.1. STARTTLS</h3></div></div></div><p>
    When non-secure URL protocols <code class="literal">imap://</code>,
    <code class="literal">pop://</code>, and <code class="literal">smtp://</code> are
    used, the initial connection to the server will be unencrypted.
    <code class="literal">STARTTLS</code> can be used to negotiate an encrypted
    connection after the initial unencrypted connection and exchange.
  </p><p>
    Two configuration variables control Mutt's behavior with
    <code class="literal">STARTTLS</code>.  <a class="link" href="reference.html#ssl-starttls" title="3.363. ssl_starttls">$ssl_starttls</a> will initiate
    <code class="literal">STARTTLS</code> if the server advertises support for
    it.  <a class="link" href="reference.html#ssl-force-tls" title="3.361. ssl_force_tls">$ssl_force_tls</a> will
    always try to initiate it, whether the server advertises support
    or not.
  </p><p>
    Mutt <span class="emphasis"><em>highly recommends</em></span> setting <a class="link" href="reference.html#ssl-force-tls" title="3.361. ssl_force_tls">$ssl_force_tls</a> unless you need to
    connect to an unencrypted server.  It's possible for an attacker
    to spoof interactions during the initial connection and hide
    support for <code class="literal">STARTTLS</code>.  The only way to prevent
    these attacks is by forcing <code class="literal">STARTTLS</code> with the
    <a class="link" href="reference.html#ssl-force-tls" title="3.361. ssl_force_tls">$ssl_force_tls</a> configuration
    variable.
  </p></div><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="secure-tunnel"></a>2.2. Tunnel</h3></div></div></div><p>
    When connecting through a <a class="link" href="reference.html#tunnel" title="3.392. tunnel">$tunnel</a>
    and <a class="link" href="reference.html#tunnel-is-secure" title="3.393. tunnel_is_secure">$tunnel_is_secure</a> is
    set (the default), Mutt will assume the connection to the server
    through the pipe is already secured.  Mutt will ignore <a class="link" href="reference.html#ssl-starttls" title="3.363. ssl_starttls">$ssl_starttls</a> and <a class="link" href="reference.html#ssl-force-tls" title="3.361. ssl_force_tls">$ssl_force_tls</a>, behaving as if TLS
    has already been negotiated.
  </p><p>
    When <a class="link" href="reference.html#tunnel-is-secure" title="3.393. tunnel_is_secure">$tunnel_is_secure</a> is
    unset, Mutt will respect the values of <a class="link" href="reference.html#ssl-starttls" title="3.363. ssl_starttls">$ssl_starttls</a> and <a class="link" href="reference.html#ssl-force-tls" title="3.361. ssl_force_tls">$ssl_force_tls</a>.  It is
    <span class="emphasis"><em>highly recommended</em></span> to set <a class="link" href="reference.html#ssl-force-tls" title="3.361. ssl_force_tls">$ssl_force_tls</a> in this case, to
    force <code class="literal">STARTTLS</code> negotiation.  Note that doing so
    will prevent connection to an IMAP server configured for
    preauthentication (<code class="literal">PREAUTH</code>).  If you use this
    configuration, it is recommended to use a secure tunnel.
  </p></div></div><div class="sect1"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="pop"></a>3. POP3 Support</h2></div></div></div><p>
If Mutt is compiled with POP3 support (by running the
<span class="emphasis"><em>configure</em></span> script with the
<span class="emphasis"><em>--enable-pop</em></span> flag), it has the ability to work with
mailboxes located on a remote POP3 server and fetch mail for local
browsing.
</p><p>
Remote POP3 servers can be accessed using URLs with the
<code class="literal">pop</code> protocol for unencrypted and
<code class="literal">pops</code> for encrypted communication, see <a class="xref" href="optionalfeatures.html#url-syntax" title="1.2. URL Syntax">Section 1.2, “URL Syntax”</a> for details.
</p><p>
Polling for new mail is more expensive over POP3 than locally. For this
reason the frequency at which Mutt will check for mail remotely can be
controlled by the <a class="link" href="reference.html#pop-checkinterval" title="3.244. pop_checkinterval">$pop_checkinterval</a> variable, which
defaults to every 60 seconds.
</p><p>
POP is read-only which doesn't allow for some features like editing
messages or changing flags. However, using <a class="xref" href="optionalfeatures.html#header-caching" title="8.1. Header Caching">Section 8.1, “Header Caching”</a> and <a class="xref" href="optionalfeatures.html#body-caching" title="8.2. Body Caching">Section 8.2, “Body Caching”</a> Mutt
simulates the new/old/read flags as well as flagged and replied.  Mutt
applies some logic on top of remote messages but cannot change them so
that modifications of flags are lost when messages are downloaded from
the POP server (either by Mutt or other tools).
</p><a id="fetch-mail"></a><p>
Another way to access your POP3 mail is the
<code class="literal">&lt;fetch-mail&gt;</code> function (default: G).  It allows
to connect to <a class="link" href="reference.html#pop-host" title="3.246. pop_host">$pop_host</a>, fetch all your
new mail and place it in the local <a class="link" href="reference.html#spoolfile" title="3.358. spoolfile">$spoolfile</a>.  After this point, Mutt runs
exactly as if the mail had always been local.
</p><div class="note"><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p>
If you only need to fetch all messages to a local mailbox you should
consider using a specialized program, such as
<code class="literal">fetchmail(1)</code>, <code class="literal">getmail(1)</code> or
similar.
</p></div></div><div class="sect1"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="imap"></a>4. IMAP Support</h2></div></div></div><p>
If Mutt was compiled with IMAP support (by running the
<span class="emphasis"><em>configure</em></span> script with the
<span class="emphasis"><em>--enable-imap</em></span> flag), it has the ability to work
with folders located on a remote IMAP server.
</p><p>
You can access the remote inbox by selecting the folder by its URL (see
<a class="xref" href="optionalfeatures.html#url-syntax" title="1.2. URL Syntax">Section 1.2, “URL Syntax”</a> for details) using the
<code class="literal">imap</code> or <code class="literal">imaps</code> protocol.
Alternatively, a pine-compatible notation is also supported, i.e.
<code class="literal">{[username@]imapserver[:port][/ssl]}path/to/folder</code>
</p><p>
Note that not all servers use <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">/</span>”</span> as the hierarchy
separator.  Mutt should correctly notice which separator is being used
by the server and convert paths accordingly.
</p><p>
When browsing folders on an IMAP server, you can toggle whether to look
at only the folders you are subscribed to, or all folders with the
<span class="emphasis"><em>toggle-subscribed</em></span> command.  See also the <a class="link" href="reference.html#imap-list-subscribed" title="3.141. imap_list_subscribed">$imap_list_subscribed</a> variable.
</p><p>
Polling for new mail on an IMAP server can cause noticeable delays. So,
you'll want to carefully tune the <a class="link" href="reference.html#mail-check" title="3.160. mail_check">$mail_check</a> and <a class="link" href="reference.html#timeout" title="3.385. timeout">$timeout</a> variables. Reasonable values are:
</p><pre class="screen">
set mail_check=90
set timeout=15
</pre><p>
with relatively good results even over slow modem lines.
</p><div class="note"><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p>
Note that if you are using mbox as the mail store on UW servers prior to
v12.250, the server has been reported to disconnect a client if another
client selects the same folder.
</p></div><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="imap-browser"></a>4.1. The IMAP Folder Browser</h3></div></div></div><p>
As of version 1.2, Mutt supports browsing mailboxes on an IMAP
server. This is mostly the same as the local file browser, with the
following differences:
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
In lieu of file permissions, Mutt displays the string
<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">IMAP</span>”</span>, possibly followed by the symbol <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">+</span>”</span>,
indicating that the entry contains both messages and subfolders. On
Cyrus-like servers folders will often contain both messages and
subfolders.  A mailbox name with a trailing delimiter (usually
<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">/</span>”</span> or <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">.</span>”</span>) indicates subfolders.
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
For the case where an entry can contain both messages and subfolders,
the selection key (bound to <code class="literal">enter</code> by default) will
choose to descend into the subfolder view. If you wish to view the
messages in that folder, you must use <code class="literal">view-file</code>
instead (bound to <code class="literal">space</code> by default).
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
You can create, delete and rename mailboxes with the
<code class="literal">&lt;create-mailbox&gt;</code>,
<code class="literal">&lt;delete-mailbox&gt;</code>, and
<code class="literal">&lt;rename-mailbox&gt;</code> commands (default bindings:
<code class="literal">C</code>, <code class="literal">d</code> and <code class="literal">r</code>,
respectively). You may also <code class="literal">&lt;subscribe&gt;</code> and
<code class="literal">&lt;unsubscribe&gt;</code> to mailboxes (normally these are
bound to <code class="literal">s</code> and <code class="literal">u</code>, respectively).
</p></li></ul></div></div><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="imap-authentication"></a>4.2. Authentication</h3></div></div></div><p>
Mutt supports four authentication methods with IMAP servers: SASL,
GSSAPI, CRAM-MD5, and LOGIN (there is a patch by Grant Edwards to add
NTLM authentication for you poor exchange users out there, but it has
yet to be integrated into the main tree). There is also support for the
pseudo-protocol ANONYMOUS, which allows you to log in to a public IMAP
server without having an account. To use ANONYMOUS, simply make your
username blank or <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">anonymous</span>”</span>.
</p><p>
SASL is a special super-authenticator, which selects among several
protocols (including GSSAPI, CRAM-MD5, ANONYMOUS, and DIGEST-MD5) the
most secure method available on your host and the server. Using some of
these methods (including DIGEST-MD5 and possibly GSSAPI), your entire
session will be encrypted and invisible to those teeming network
snoops. It is the best option if you have it. To use it, you must have
the Cyrus SASL library installed on your system and compile Mutt with
the <span class="emphasis"><em>--with-sasl</em></span> flag.
</p><p>
Mutt will try whichever methods are compiled in and available on the
server, in the following order: SASL, ANONYMOUS, GSSAPI, CRAM-MD5,
LOGIN.
</p><p>
There are a few variables which control authentication:
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
<a class="link" href="reference.html#imap-user" title="3.151. imap_user">$imap_user</a> - controls the username
under which you request authentication on the IMAP server, for all
authenticators. This is overridden by an explicit username in the
mailbox path (i.e. by using a mailbox name of the form
<code class="literal">{user@host}</code>).
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
<a class="link" href="reference.html#imap-pass" title="3.144. imap_pass">$imap_pass</a> - a password which you may
preset, used by all authentication methods where a password is needed.
</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
<a class="link" href="reference.html#imap-authenticators" title="3.132. imap_authenticators">$imap_authenticators</a> - a
colon-delimited list of IMAP authentication methods to try, in the order
you wish to try them. If specified, this overrides Mutt's default
(attempt everything, in the order listed above).
</p></li></ul></div></div></div><div class="sect1"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="smtp"></a>5. SMTP Support</h2></div></div></div><p>
Besides supporting traditional mail delivery through a
sendmail-compatible program, Mutt supports delivery through SMTP if it
was configured and built with <code class="literal">--enable-smtp</code>.
</p><p>
If the configuration variable <a class="link" href="reference.html#smtp-url" title="3.351. smtp_url">$smtp_url</a>
is set, Mutt will contact the given SMTP server to deliver messages; if
it is unset, Mutt will use the program specified by <a class="link" href="reference.html#sendmail" title="3.298. sendmail">$sendmail</a>.
</p><p>
For details on the URL syntax, please see <a class="xref" href="optionalfeatures.html#url-syntax" title="1.2. URL Syntax">Section 1.2, “URL Syntax”</a>.
</p><p>
The built-in SMTP support supports encryption (the
<code class="literal">smtps</code> protocol using SSL or TLS) as well as SMTP
authentication using SASL. The authentication mechanisms for SASL are
specified in <a class="link" href="reference.html#smtp-authenticators" title="3.348. smtp_authenticators">$smtp_authenticators</a> defaulting to
an empty list which makes Mutt try all available methods from
most-secure to least-secure.
</p></div><div class="sect1"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="oauth"></a>6. OAUTHBEARER Support</h2></div></div></div><p>
Preliminary OAUTH support for IMAP, POP, and SMTP is provided via
external scripts.
</p><p>
At least for Gmail, you can use the <code class="literal">oauth2.py</code>
script from Google's gmail-oauth2-tools: <a class="ulink" href="https://github.com/google/gmail-oauth2-tools/blob/master/python/oauth2.py" target="_top">https://github.com/google/gmail-oauth2-tools/blob/master/python/oauth2.py</a>
</p><p>
You'll need to get your own oauth client credentials for Gmail here:

Then, you'd use <code class="literal">oauth2.py</code> with
<code class="literal">--generate_oauth2_token</code> to get a refresh token, and
configure mutt with:
</p><pre class="screen">
set imap_authenticators="oauthbearer"
set imap_oauth_refresh_command="/path/to/oauth2.py --quiet --user=[email_address]\
    --client_id=[client_id] --client_secret=[client_secret]\
    --refresh_token=[refresh_token]"
</pre><p>
Substitute pop or smtp for imap in the above example to configure for those.

Usage:
</p><div class="cmdsynopsis"><p><code class="command">account-hook</code>   
<em class="replaceable"><code>regexp</code></em>
   
<em class="replaceable"><code>command</code></em>
 </p></div><p>
If you happen to have accounts on multiple IMAP, POP and/or SMTP
servers, you may find managing all the authentication settings
inconvenient and error-prone. The <a class="link" href="optionalfeatures.html#account-hook" title="7. Managing Multiple Accounts"><span class="command"><strong>account-hook</strong></span></a> command
may help. This hook works like <a class="link" href="configuration.html#folder-hook" title="9. Setting Variables Based Upon Mailbox"><span class="command"><strong>folder-hook</strong></span></a> but is
invoked whenever Mutt needs to access a remote mailbox (including inside
the folder browser), not just when you open the mailbox. This includes
(for example) polling for new mail, storing Fcc messages and saving
messages to a folder. As a consequence, <a class="link" href="optionalfeatures.html#account-hook" title="7. Managing Multiple Accounts"><span class="command"><strong>account-hook</strong></span></a> should
only be used to set connection-related settings such as passwords or
tunnel commands but not settings such as sender address or name (because
in general it should be considered unpredictable which <a class="link" href="optionalfeatures.html#account-hook" title="7. Managing Multiple Accounts"><span class="command"><strong>account-hook</strong></span></a> was last
used).
</p><p>
Some examples:
</p><pre class="screen">
account-hook . 'unset imap_user; unset imap_pass; unset tunnel'
account-hook imap://host1/ 'set imap_user=me1 imap_pass=foo'
account-hook imap://host2/ 'set tunnel="ssh host2 /usr/libexec/imapd"'
account-hook smtp://user@host3/ 'set tunnel="ssh host3 /usr/libexec/smtpd"'
</pre><p>
To manage multiple accounts with, for example, different values of <a class="link" href="reference.html#record" title="3.272. record">$record</a> or sender addresses, <a class="link" href="configuration.html#folder-hook" title="9. Setting Variables Based Upon Mailbox"><span class="command"><strong>folder-hook</strong></span></a> has to be
used together with the <a class="link" href="configuration.html#mailboxes" title="16. Monitoring Incoming Mail"><span class="command"><strong>mailboxes</strong></span></a> command.
</p><div class="example"><a id="ex-multiaccount"></a><p class="title"><strong>Example 6.2. Managing multiple accounts</strong></p><div class="example-contents"><pre class="screen">
mailboxes imap://user@host1/INBOX
folder-hook imap://user@host1/ 'set folder=imap://host1/ ; set record=+INBOX/Sent'

mailboxes imap://user@host2/INBOX
folder-hook imap://user@host2/ 'set folder=imap://host2/ ; set record=+INBOX/Sent'
</pre></div></div><br class="example-break" /><p>
In example <a class="xref" href="optionalfeatures.html#ex-multiaccount" title="Example 6.2. Managing multiple accounts">Example 6.2, “Managing multiple accounts”</a> the folders are defined
using <a class="link" href="configuration.html#mailboxes" title="16. Monitoring Incoming Mail"><span class="command"><strong>mailboxes</strong></span></a> so
Mutt polls them for new mail. Each <a class="link" href="configuration.html#folder-hook" title="9. Setting Variables Based Upon Mailbox"><span class="command"><strong>folder-hook</strong></span></a> triggers
when one mailbox below each IMAP account is opened and sets <a class="link" href="reference.html#folder" title="3.95. folder">$folder</a> to the account's root folder. Next, it
sets <a class="link" href="reference.html#record" title="3.272. record">$record</a> to the
<span class="emphasis"><em>INBOX/Sent</em></span> folder below the newly set <a class="link" href="reference.html#folder" title="3.95. folder">$folder</a>. Please notice that the value the
<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">+</span>”</span> <a class="link" href="advancedusage.html#shortcuts" title="10. Mailbox Shortcuts">mailbox shortcut</a>
refers to depends on the <span class="emphasis"><em>current</em></span> value of <a class="link" href="reference.html#folder" title="3.95. folder">$folder</a> and therefore has to be set separately
per account. Setting other values like <a class="link" href="reference.html#from" title="3.107. from">$from</a>
or <a class="link" href="reference.html#signature" title="3.316. signature">$signature</a> is analogous to setting
<a class="link" href="reference.html#record" title="3.272. record">$record</a>.
</p></div><div class="sect1"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="caching"></a>8. Local Caching</h2></div></div></div><p>
Mutt contains two types of local caching: <span class="emphasis"><em>(1)</em></span> the
so-called <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">header caching</span>”</span> and <span class="emphasis"><em>(2)</em></span> the
so-called <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">body caching</span>”</span> which are both described in this
section.
</p><p>
Header caching is optional as it depends on external libraries, body
caching is always enabled if Mutt is compiled with POP and/or IMAP
support as these use it (body caching requires no external library).
</p><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="header-caching"></a>8.1. Header Caching</h3></div></div></div><p>
Mutt provides optional support for caching message headers for the
following types of folders: IMAP, POP, Maildir and MH. Header caching
greatly speeds up opening large folders because for remote folders,
headers usually only need to be downloaded once. For Maildir and MH,
reading the headers from a single file is much faster than looking at
possibly thousands of single files (since Maildir and MH use one file
per message.)
</p><p>
Header caching can be enabled via the configure script and the
<span class="emphasis"><em>--enable-hcache</em></span> option. It's not turned on by
default because external database libraries are required: one of
tokyocabinet, kyotocabinet, lmdb, qdbm, gdbm or bdb must be present.
</p><p>
If enabled, <a class="link" href="reference.html#header-cache" title="3.111. header_cache">$header_cache</a> can be
used to either point to a file or a directory. If set to point to a
file, one database file for all folders will be used (which may result
in lower performance), but one file per folder if it points to a
directory.
</p></div><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="body-caching"></a>8.2. Body Caching</h3></div></div></div><p>
Both cache methods can be combined using the same directory for storage
(and for IMAP/POP even provide meaningful file names) which simplifies
manual maintenance tasks.
</p><p>
In addition to caching message headers only, Mutt can also cache whole
message bodies. This results in faster display of messages for POP and
IMAP folders because messages usually have to be downloaded only once.
</p><p>
For configuration, the variable <a class="link" href="reference.html#message-cachedir" title="3.179. message_cachedir">$message_cachedir</a> must point to a directory. There, Mutt will
create a hierarchy of subdirectories named like the account and mailbox
path the cache is for.
</p></div><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="cache-dirs"></a>8.3. Cache Directories</h3></div></div></div><p>
For using both, header and body caching, <a class="link" href="reference.html#header-cache" title="3.111. header_cache">$header_cache</a> and <a class="link" href="reference.html#message-cachedir" title="3.179. message_cachedir">$message_cachedir</a> can be safely set
to the same value.
</p><p>
In a header or body cache directory, Mutt creates a directory hierarchy
named like: <code class="literal">proto:user@hostname</code> where
<code class="literal">proto</code> is either <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">pop</span>”</span> or
<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">imap.</span>”</span> Within there, for each folder, Mutt stores messages
in single files and header caches in files with the
<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">.hcache</span>”</span> extension.  All files can be removed as needed if
the consumed disk space becomes an issue as Mutt will silently fetch
missing items again. Pathnames are always stored in UTF-8 encoding.
</p><p>
For Maildir and MH, the header cache files are named after the MD5
checksum of the path.
</p></div><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="maint-cache"></a>8.4. Maintenance</h3></div></div></div><p>
Mutt does not (yet) support maintenance features for header cache
database files so that files have to be removed in case they grow too
big. It depends on the database library used for header caching whether
disk space freed by removing messages is re-used.
</p><p>
For body caches, Mutt can keep the local cache in sync with the remote
mailbox if the <a class="link" href="reference.html#message-cache-clean" title="3.178. message_cache_clean">$message_cache_clean</a> variable is
set. Cleaning means to remove messages from the cache which are no
longer present in the mailbox which only happens when other mail clients
or instances of Mutt using a different body cache location delete
messages (Mutt itself removes deleted messages from the cache when
syncing a mailbox). As cleaning can take a noticeable amount of time, it
should not be set in general but only occasionally.
</p></div></div><div class="sect1"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="exact-address"></a>9. Exact Address Generation</h2></div></div></div><p>
Mutt supports the <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Name &lt;user@host&gt;</span>”</span> address syntax
for reading and writing messages, the older <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">user@host
(Name)</span>”</span> syntax is only supported when reading messages. The
<span class="emphasis"><em>--enable-exact-address</em></span> switch can be given to
configure to build it with write-support for the latter
syntax. <code class="literal">EXACT_ADDRESS</code> in the output of <code class="literal">mutt
-v</code> indicates whether it's supported.
</p><p>
Note: If the full address contains non-ascii characters, or sequences
that require RFC 2047 encoding, Mutt reverts to writing out the
normalized <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">Name &lt;user@host&gt;</span>”</span> form, in order to
generate legal output.
</p></div><div class="sect1"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h2 class="title" style="clear: both"><a id="sending-mixmaster"></a>10. Sending Anonymous Messages via Mixmaster</h2></div></div></div><p>
You may also have compiled Mutt to co-operate with Mixmaster, an
anonymous remailer.  Mixmaster permits you to send your messages
anonymously using a chain of remailers. Mixmaster support in Mutt is for
mixmaster version 2.04 or later.
</p><p>
To use it, you'll have to obey certain restrictions.  Most important,
you cannot use the <code class="literal">Cc</code> and <code class="literal">Bcc</code>
headers.  To tell Mutt to use mixmaster, you have to select a remailer
chain, using the mix function on the compose menu.
</p><p>
The chain selection screen is divided into two parts.  In the (larger)
upper part, you get a list of remailers you may use.  In the lower part,
you see the currently selected chain of remailers.
</p><p>
You can navigate in the chain using the
<code class="literal">&lt;chain-prev&gt;</code> and
<code class="literal">&lt;chain-next&gt;</code> functions, which are by default
bound to the left and right arrows and to the <code class="literal">h</code> and
<code class="literal">l</code> keys (think vi keyboard bindings).  To insert a
remailer at the current chain position, use the
<code class="literal">&lt;insert&gt;</code> function.  To append a remailer behind
the current chain position, use <code class="literal">&lt;select-entry&gt;</code>
or <code class="literal">&lt;append&gt;</code>.  You can also delete entries from
the chain, using the corresponding function.  Finally, to abandon your
changes, leave the menu, or <code class="literal">&lt;accept&gt;</code> them
pressing (by default) the <code class="literal">Return</code> key.
</p><p>
Note that different remailers do have different capabilities, indicated
in the %c entry of the remailer menu lines (see <a class="link" href="reference.html#mix-entry-format" title="3.192. mix_entry_format">$mix_entry_format</a>).  Most important is
the <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">middleman</span>”</span> capability, indicated by a capital
<span class="quote">“<span class="quote">M</span>”</span>: This means that the remailer in question cannot be
used as the final element of a chain, but will only forward messages to
other mixmaster remailers.  For details on the other capabilities,
please have a look at the mixmaster documentation.

      The Compressed Folder patch allows Mutt to read mailbox files that are
      compressed.  But it isn't limited to compressed files.  It works well
      with encrypted files, too.  In fact, if you can create a program/script
      to convert to and from your format, then Mutt can read it.
    </p><p>
      The patch adds three hooks to Mutt: <code class="literal">open-hook</code>,
      <code class="literal">close-hook</code> and <code class="literal">append-hook</code>.  They
      define commands to: uncompress a file; compress a file; append
      messages to an already compressed file.
    </p><p>
      There are some examples of both compressed and encrypted files,
      later.  For now, the documentation will just concentrate on
      compressed files.

        Encrypted files are decrypted into temporary files which are

        This could be a security risk.

    Mutt can be compiled with Autocrypt support by running
    <code class="literal">configure</code> with the
    <code class="literal">--enable-autocrypt</code> flag.  Autocrypt provides
    easy to use, passive protection against data collection.  Keys are
    distributed via an <code class="literal">Autocrypt:</code> header added to
    emails.  It does <span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span> protect against active
    adversaries, and so should not be considered a substitute for
    normal encryption via your keyring, using key signing and the web
    of trust to verify identities.  With an understanding of these
    limitations, Autocrypt still provides an easy way to minimize
    cleartext emails sent between common correspondents, without
    having to explicitly exchange keys.  More information can be found
    at <a class="ulink" href="https://autocrypt.org/" target="_top">https://autocrypt.org/</a>.
  </p><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="autocryptdoc-requirements"></a>13.1. Requirements</h3></div></div></div><p>
      Autocrypt requires support for ECC cryptography, and Mutt by
      default will generate ECC keys.  Therefore GnuPG 2.1 or greater
      is required.  Additionally, Mutt's Autocrypt implementation uses
      GPGME and requires at least version 1.8.0.
    </p><p>
      Account and peer information is stored in a sqlite3 database, and
      so Mutt must be configured with the <code class="literal">--with-sqlite3</code>
      flag when autocrypt is enabled.
    </p><p>
      It is highly recommended Mutt be configured
      <code class="literal">--with-idn</code> or
      <code class="literal">--with-idn2</code> so that Autocrypt can properly
      deal with international domain names.
    </p><p>
      While Mutt uses GPGME for Autocrypt, normal keyring operations
      can still be performed via classic mode (i.e. with <a class="link" href="reference.html#crypt-use-gpgme" title="3.69. crypt_use_gpgme">$crypt_use_gpgme</a> unset).
      However, to avoid unnecessary prompts, it is recommended gpg not
      be configured in <code class="literal">loopback pinentry</code> mode, and
      that <a class="link" href="reference.html#pgp-use-gpg-agent" title="3.235. pgp_use_gpg_agent">$pgp_use_gpg_agent</a>
      remain set (the default).
    </p></div><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="autocryptdoc-init"></a>13.2. First Run</h3></div></div></div><p>
      To enable Autocrypt, set <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt" title="3.23. autocrypt">$autocrypt</a>, and if desired change the
      value of <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-dir" title="3.25. autocrypt_dir">$autocrypt_dir</a> in
      your muttrc.  The first time Mutt is run after that, you will be
      prompted to create <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-dir" title="3.25. autocrypt_dir">$autocrypt_dir</a>.  Mutt will then
      automatically create an sqlite3 database and GPG keyring in that
      directory.  Note since these files should be considered private,
      Mutt will create this directory with mode
      <code class="literal">700</code>.  If you create the directory manually,
      you should do the same.
    </p><p>
      Mutt recommends keeping the <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-dir" title="3.25. autocrypt_dir">$autocrypt_dir</a> directory set
      differently from your GnuPG keyring directory
      (e.g. <code class="literal">~/.gnupg</code>).  Keys are automatically
      imported into the keyring from <code class="literal">Autocrypt:</code>
      headers.  Compared to standard <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">web of trust</span>”</span> keys,
      Autocrypt keys are somewhat ephemeral, and the autocrypt
      database is used to track when keys change or fall out of use.
      Having these keys mixed in with your normal keyring will make it
      more difficult to use features such as <a class="link" href="reference.html#crypt-opportunistic-encrypt" title="3.59. crypt_opportunistic_encrypt">$crypt_opportunistic_encrypt</a>
      and Autocrypt at the same time.
    </p><p>
      The <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-dir" title="3.25. autocrypt_dir">$autocrypt_dir</a> variable
      is not designed to be changed while Mutt is running.  The
      database is created (if necessary) and connected to during
      startup.  Changing the variable can result in a situation where
      Mutt is looking in one place for the database and a different
      place for the GPG keyring, resulting in strange behavior.
    </p><p>
      Once the directory, keyring, and database are created, Mutt will
      ask whether you would like to create an account.  In order to
      use Autocrypt, each sending address needs an account.  As a
      convenience you can create an account during the first run.  If
      you would like to add additional accounts later, this can be
      done via the <code class="literal">&lt;autocrypt-acct-menu&gt;</code>
      function in the index, by default bound to <code class="literal">A</code>.
    </p><p>
      Account creation will first ask you for an email address.  Next,
      it will ask whether you want to create a new key or select an
      existing key.  (Note key selection takes place from the <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-dir" title="3.25. autocrypt_dir">$autocrypt_dir</a> keyring, which
      will normally be empty during first run).  Finally, it will ask
      whether this address should prefer encryption or not.  Autocrypt
      1.1 allows automatically enabling encryption if
      <span class="emphasis"><em>both</em></span> sender and receiver have set
      <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">prefer encryption</span>”</span>.  Otherwise, you will need to
      manually enable autocrypt encryption in the compose menu.  For
      more details, see the compose menu section below.
    </p><p>
      After optionally creating an account, Mutt will prompt you to
      scan mailboxes for Autocrypt headers.  This step occurs because
      header cached messages are not re-scanned for Autocrypt headers.
      Scanning during this step will temporarily disable the header
      cache while opening each mailbox.  If you wish to do this
      manually later, you can simulate the same thing by unsetting
      <a class="link" href="reference.html#header-cache" title="3.111. header_cache">$header_cache</a> and opening a
      mailbox.
    </p><p>
      A final technical note: the first run process takes place
      between reading the muttrc and opening the initial mailbox.
      Some muttrc files will <a class="link" href="configuration.html#push" title="25. Adding Key Sequences to the Keyboard Buffer">push</a> macros
      to be run after opening the mailbox.  To prevent this from
      interfering with the first run prompts, Mutt disables all macros
      during the first run.
    </p></div><div class="sect2"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="autocryptdoc-compose"></a>13.3. Compose Menu</h3></div></div></div><p>
      When enabled, Autocrypt will add a line to the compose menu with
      two fields: <code class="literal">Autocrypt:</code> and
      <code class="literal">Recommendation:</code>.
    </p><p>
      The <code class="literal">Autocrypt:</code> field shows whether the
      message will be encrypted by Autocrypt when sent.  It has two
      values: <code class="literal">Encrypt</code> and <code class="literal">Off</code>.
      <code class="literal">Encrypt</code> can be enabled using the
      <code class="literal">&lt;autocrypt-menu&gt;</code> function, by default
      bound to <code class="literal">o</code>.
    </p><p>
      The <code class="literal">Recommendation:</code> field shows the output of
      the Autocrypt recommendation engine.  This can have one of five
      values:
    </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
          <code class="literal">Off</code> means the engine is disabled.  This
          can happen if the From address doesn't have an autocrypt
          account, or if the account has been manually disabled.
        </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
          <code class="literal">No</code> means one or more recipients are
          missing an autocrypt key, or the key found is unusable
          (i.e. expired, revoked, disabled, invalid, or not usable for
          encryption.)
        </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
          <code class="literal">Discouraged</code> means a key was found for
          every recipient, but the engine is not confident the message
          will be decryptable by the recipient.  This can happen if
          the key hasn't been used recently (compared to their last
          seen email).
        </p><p>
          It can also happen if the key wasn't seen first-hand from
          the sender.  Autocrypt has a feature where recipient keys
          can be included in group-encrypted emails.  This allows you
          to reply to a conversation where you don't have a key
          first-hand from one of the other recipients.  However, those
          keys are not trusted as much as from first-hand emails, so
          the engine warns you with a <code class="literal">Discouraged</code>
          status.
        </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
          <code class="literal">Available</code> means a key was found for every
          recipient, and the engine believes all keys are recent and
          seen from the recipient first hand.  However, either you or
          one of the recipients chose not to specify <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">prefer
          encryption</span>”</span>.
        </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
          <code class="literal">Yes</code> is the same as
          <code class="literal">Available</code>, with the addition that you and
          all recipients have specified <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">prefer
          encryption</span>”</span>.  This value will automatically enable
          encryption, unless you have manually switched it off or
          enabled regular encryption or signing via the
          <code class="literal">&lt;pgp-menu&gt;</code>.
        </p></li></ul></div><p>
      As mentioned above the <code class="literal">&lt;autocrypt-menu&gt;</code>
      function, by default bound to <code class="literal">o</code>, can be used
      to change the <code class="literal">Encrypt:</code> field value.
      <code class="literal">(e)ncrypt</code> will toggle encryption on.
      <code class="literal">(c)lear</code> will toggle encryption off.  If
      either of these are chosen, the field will remain in that state
      despite what the <code class="literal">Recommendation:</code> field shows.
      Lastly, <code class="literal">(a)utomatic</code> will set the value based
      on the recommendation engine's output.
    </p><p>
      Autocrypt encryption defers to normal encryption or signing.
      <span class="emphasis"><em>Anything</em></span> that enables normal encryption or
      signing will cause autocrypt encryption to turn off.  The only
      exception is when replying to an autocrypt-encrypted email
      (i.e. an email decrypted from the <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-dir" title="3.25. autocrypt_dir">$autocrypt_dir</a> keyring).  Then,
      if <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-reply" title="3.26. autocrypt_reply">$autocrypt_reply</a> is
      <span class="emphasis"><em>set</em></span>, autocrypt mode will be forced on,
      overriding the settings
      <a class="link" href="reference.html#crypt-autosign" title="3.56. crypt_autosign">$crypt_autosign</a>,

    </p><p>
      When postponing a message, autocrypt will respect <a class="link" href="reference.html#postpone-encrypt" title="3.255. postpone_encrypt">$postpone_encrypt</a>, but will
      use the autocrypt account key to encrypt the message.  Be sure
      to set <a class="link" href="reference.html#postpone-encrypt" title="3.255. postpone_encrypt">$postpone_encrypt</a>
      to ensure postponed messages marked for autocrypt encryption are

      The Autocrypt Account Menu is available from the index via
      <code class="literal">&lt;autocrypt-acct-menu&gt;</code>, by default bound
      to <code class="literal">A</code>.  See <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-account-map" title="4.14. Autocrypt Account Menu">Autocrypt Account Menu</a> for the

    </p><p>
      Deleting an account only removes the account from the database.
      The GPG key is kept, to ensure you still have the ability to

      Mutt by default partitions Autocrypt from normal keyring
      encryption/signing.  It does this by using a separate GPG
      keyring (in <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-dir" title="3.25. autocrypt_dir">$autocrypt_dir</a>)
      and creating a new ECC key in that keyring for accounts.  There
      are good reasons for doing this by default.  It keeps random
      keys found inside email headers out of your normal keyring.  ECC
      keys are compact and better suited for email headers.  Autocrypt
      key selection is completely different from <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">web of
      trust</span>”</span> key selection, based on last-seen rules as opposed
      to trust and validity.  It also allows Mutt to distinguish
      Autocrypt encrypted emails from regular encrypted emails, and
      set the mode appropriately when replying to each type of email.
    </p><p>
      Still, some users may want to use an existing key from their
      normal keyring for Autocrypt too.  There are two ways this can
      be accomplished.  The <span class="emphasis"><em>recommended</em></span> way is to
      set <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-dir" title="3.25. autocrypt_dir">$autocrypt_dir</a> to your
      normal keyring directory (e.g. <code class="literal">~/.gnupg</code>).
      During account creation, choosing <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">(s)elect existing GPG
      key</span>”</span> will then list and allow selecting your existing key
      for the new account.
    </p><p>
     An alternative is to copy your key over to the Autocrypt keyring,
     but there is a severe downside.  Mutt <span class="emphasis"><em>first</em></span>
     tries to decrypt messages using the Autocrypt keyring, and if
     that fails tries the normal keyring second.  This means all
     encrypted emails to that key will be decrypted, and have
     signatures verified from, the Autocrypt keyring.  Keys signatures
     and web of trust from your normal keyring will no longer show up
     in signatures when decrypting.
    </p><p>
      For that reason, if you want to use an existing key from your
      normal keyring, it is recommended to just set <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-dir" title="3.25. autocrypt_dir">$autocrypt_dir</a> to
      <code class="literal">~/.gnupg</code>.  This allows <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">web of
      trust</span>”</span> to show an appropriate signature message for
      verified messages.  Autocrypt header keys will be imported into
      your keyring, but if you don't want them mixed you should
      strongly consider using a separate autocrypt key and keyring
      instead.
    </p><p>
      Both methods have a couple additional caveats:
    </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
          Replying to an Autocrypt decrypted message by default forces
          Autocrypt mode on.  By sharing the same key, all replies
          will then start in Autocrypt mode, even if a message wasn't
          sent by one of your Autocrypt peers.  <a class="link" href="reference.html#autocrypt-reply" title="3.26. autocrypt_reply">$autocrypt_reply</a> can be
          <span class="emphasis"><em>unset</em></span> to allow manual control of the
          mode when replying.
        </p></li><li class="listitem"><p>
          When Mutt creates an account from a GPG key, it exports the
          public key, base64 encodes it, and stores that value in the
          sqlite3 database.  The value is then used in the Autocrypt
          header added to outgoing emails.  The ECC keys Mutt creates
          don't change, but if you use external keys that expire, when
          you resign to extend the expiration you will need to
          recreate the Autocrypt account using the <a class="link" href="optionalfeatures.html#autocryptdoc-acctmgmt" title="13.4. Account Management">account menu</a>.
          Otherwise the Autocrypt header will contain the old expired
          exported keydata.
