For example, is it possible to highlight/reverse video the found text?

You can manually delete attachments from an individual message directly in Alpine. While viewing a message, use ">" to go to the attachment screen, select each attachment and "D" to delete it. (You'll get a message at this point about Saving the message, and you'll see a "S)ave" option on the screen -- do NOT use Save at this point...) Jump back to the main message screen with "<", and _then_ "S"ave the message. Save it back to the same folder it's already in ("sent-mail" or whatever). The original copy will at this point be deleted (assuming the default "Save Will Delete"), and a new copy, with the attachments replaced by a short message, will be created in the same folder. e"X"punge, and you're done. If you want to do this to an entire mailbox, I don't think that Alpine can do it. However, if you have raw filesystem access to the mailspool, and you're using Maildir, it's quite easy to script. There are plenty of tools and modules out there that can strip MIME attachments. One random example is: https://pldaniels.com/altermime/ Assuming you've installed altermime above, and assuming your sent-mail is in ${HOME}/Maildir/.sent-mail/, you could strip all the attachments with a command like: find ${HOME}/Maildir/.sent-mail/{new,cur} -type f -exec altermime --removeall --input=\{\} \; (Note that this will probably violate some of Maildir's atomicity guarantees (e.g., if the host crashes while this is running, a message may be corrupted; if you open the mailbox while a message is being processed, your mail reader may get confused; etc). Working around this to preserve Maildir's atomicity guarantees is pretty straightforward, but left as an exercise to the reader...) -Jason From dandunfee at gmail.com Sat Jul 2 07:33:06 2022 From: dandunfee at gmail.com (dan d.) Date: Fri Mar 22 14:17:32 2024 Subject: [Alpine-info] Strip attachments from sent-mail Message-ID: I strip attachments from a mailbox to reduce text clutter using a screen reader. You can adapt this below method to your needs. First I save all messages with the '+a+a+s key combination to a mailbox I created for the purpose. Then in the body of a message using '+a+a+e export to a file of choice. In that exported file; which works exactly like any mailbox; the attachments and any rellated text in the body of the message are stripped. On Fri, 1 Jul 2022, Simon Harrison wrote: > Hello list.

You are replying to an existing thread, about "Re: [Alpine-info] mail test". Then you deleted the subject line, wrote your own, and wrote your own test. It shows. :-P I see you included a redhat mail list. I can only reply on Alpine list. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

I am reading emails normally in the inbox folder of my telefonica.net folder (for example); I use the arrow keys to exit the folder and go back to the main display: Folder-Collection Well, it can take two minutes to display the list of folders. Sometimes it is instant, sometimes it is very slow. Perhaps reading all the inboxes? But this does not happen at home on my desktop machine; yes, it is a different internet connection, but as I am travelling I have seen this happen on different providers. My current pipe is 100MB, and when this happens it is far from saturated. And also with other inboxes, going back to the list of folders, the main view. What could cause this? As it doesn't happen on my desktop machine, there must be something different, probably in the configuration. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

After this happens, press M J to go to the journal, set the DebuView to 9 and press T for timestamps. Then look for big gaps in the operations of Alpine. If the problem cannot be explained by an specific operation, but it is a connectivity issue, then restart Alpine and restart Alpine with the command alpine -d verbose=9,tcp,timestamp repeat the problem, quit Alpine and take a look at the file ~/.pine-debug1 and find again gaps in the time stamps to see where the problem is. I hope this helps to debug the problem. -- Eduardo
