Content-Type occuring twice in the headerThis is a discussion on Content-Type occuring twice in the header within the Mutt forums in Other Technologies category; I am using mutt 1.4.1 on UNIX. I am having problems with the Content-Type headers. My mail client is interpreting the first Content-Type and not getting to the real one. It is my guess that since i use the "<" file routing, mutt interprets it as inline and assumes that I am using text/plain.

You may have to upgrade mutt for this; I'm running 1.5.3i; don't remember if the set content_type command is available in 1.4.1. -- Richard Seeder |

V1.4.1 doesn't have the "set content_type" variable. Looks like I need to upgrade. Where can I get Version 1.5.3i? |

I'm running SCO OpenServer; see > www.mutt.org for other options. On www.mutt.org all references are to V1.4.1. I am assuming I need a compiled AIX version of 1.5.x. I would also like to see the latest documentation for V1.5.x. I inherited support for MUTT, and was under assumption that the person prior to me found an AIX compiled version and installed it. Looks like all I can find are devleopment versions of 1.5 and compiling it locally is a different story, due to lack of C compiler (currently looking for one). Are there any plans to do a release of 1.5? |

Are there any plans to do a release of 1.5? Mutt 1.5.x is the unstable (i.e., developmental) release, currently at 1.5.6, with source available in the "devel" folder for 1.5.1-1.5.6. Not sure where you can find a compiled version for AIX, however the source should compile with the GNU-Make (see www.gnu.org/software/make). -- Richard Seeder |
