Ha, mutting again

I get tired of Outlook messing with my space alignment when I cut and paste code. I don’t care if I turn off HTML or not, it still does it. And even if I turn off HTML, the Linux-NFS mailing list rejects my posts.

So, back to mutt. The big thing people complain about when I switch back and forth between mutt and something else, is that my “From” flips from “Tom Haynes” and “Haynes, Tom”.

I tried setting gecos_mask in my .muttrc, but no joy.

This worked for me instead:
set realname=”Haynes, Tom”

I don’t care what format it is in, as long as people don’t gripe. :->
