[ILUG] Mutt reply hooks

Hi,

havn't tried this, but looks like what you want.  I use procmail to filter
different incomgin To/CCs to different folders then use folder hok, but
this looks closer to what you want.

**************************************************************************
Some of the mailto links on our web site forward to me. When I reply to
someone who writes to one of these aliases, I prefer to keep the mail alias
as the From: address in my reply. For example, when someone sends email to
coolapps at linuxcare.com to suggest a program for me to review [pardon the
blatant plug...], it forwards to me. When I hit reply, the From: line in
the email will contain coolapps at linuxcare.com instead of my main address
bneely at linuxcare.com. My .muttrc file accomplishes this with two lines:

set alternates = "kbeditor at linuxcare.com|coolapps at linuxcare.com"
set reverse_name
