I have been getting tired of having to look up the various Mutt flags that show up only once in awhile on the index view. I decided to put them here for myself and maybe for you out there who need only this information and not a complete Mutt tutorial to plow through. ;-)
Status Flags
In addition to who sent the message and the subject, a short summary of the disposition of each message is printed beside the message number. Zero or more of the following “flags” may appear, which mean:
* D message is deleted (is marked for deletion)
* d message have attachments marked for deletion
* K contains a PGP public key
* N message is new
* O message is old
* P message is PGP encrypted
* r message has been replied to
* S message is PGP signed, and the signature is succesfully verified
* s message is PGP signed
* ! message is flagged
* * message is tagged
Furthermore, the following flags reflect who the message is addressed to. They can be customized with the $to_chars variable.
* + message is to you and you only
* T message is to you, but also to or cc’ed to others
* C message is cc’ed to you
* F message is from you
* L message is sent to a subscribed mailing list
Thank you so much! I'm completely new to the "Mail concept" thing and using mutt is not straightforward. Your post has been saved in my "notes" file. Thanks again. :)
