Starting Mutt
You can use mutt in two ways, similarly to mail. You can use it to send a quick message from a file, or
you can bring up the list of messages in your mailbox and go from there.
On the UCOLick network, Mutt is found in /opt/bin/mutt. If you have trouble starting mutt, check your
PATH to see if /opt/bin is included. If it isn't, and you're on a managed host, you can put /opt/bin into
your PATH if you're comfortable editing your .profile or .cshrc file. Contact NICS if you have trouble
starting mutt and fall into one of the following categories:
• You don't know how to check your PATH
• You don't want to edit your .profile or .cshrc file
• /opt/bin is in your PATH, but mutt still won't start.
Please tell us about any error messages you receive when you try to start mutt. Be sure to tell us which
machine you were using when you had the problem.

Using Mutt from the Command Line
This is quite similar to using mail from the command line. The main difference is that, instead of typing
mail, you type mutt:
mutt nics < my.problem
If you haven't used mail this way before, this mails (or should it be mutts?) a copy of the file called
my.problem to nics.
The following options are available:
• -s subject
• -c cc_addresses
• -b bcc_addresses
A more complex example:
mutt -s "Party Invitation" faber bolte george -c lharden jrickard -b lin < invitation
This sends the contents of the file "invitation" from your current working directory with the subject
header "Party Invitation" to faber, bolte, and george, with carbon copies to lharden and jrickard and a
blind carbon copy to lin.

Getting Into and Out Of the Mutt Menu
To bring up a list of your email messages, type:
mutt
You should get a blank terminal with something like this at the bottom:
Reading /var/mail/lharden (20%)
(although, in your case, it had better not be /var/mail/lharden- I don't like other people reading my mail)
After a while (depending on the size of your inbox) a list of messages will come up:
1 Apr 01 Linda Harden ( 1) April Fool!
2 Apr 10 NICS (50) Ra Going Down Today
3 N Apr 15 Spam Unlimited (1000) Money-Making Scam of the Day
4 N Apr 15
Your Friends at the
IRS
(600) It's Tax Time Again
5 N Apr 15 NSF Grants (1100)
Congratulations, we're giving you giant research
bucks!
Messages marked with an N (3 and 4 here) are new messages.
Note to mailx users: the N is on the right side of the message number instead of the left.
See the sections on Getting Around in the Menu, Reading Messages, Deleting Messages, Replying to
Messages, Sending Messages, Saving Messages, and Printing Messages for what to do now.
When you're done using this menu, type
q
to quit. Mutt will ask you if you want to save read messages to mbox, or if you want to remove your
deleted messages. Saving read messages to mbox will copy them to the file mbox in your home
directory, and delete them from the mail spool. Removing deleted messages is just what it sounds like.
See Customizing Mutt for how to make mutt do what you want without asking you every time.

Mutt Commands Quick Reference
Getting Around in the Menu
The current message will be highlighted.
• If you want to go directly to the next new message, use the < Tab > key.
• To move up and down through the menu, use the up and down arrow keys located immediately
to the right of your Ctrl and Shift keys (not the arrows on the numeric keypad on the far right
side of the keyboard)
• If this doesn't work, or you're a vi fanatic and don't like using arrow keys, you can use j
for down and k for up, just like in vi.
• To move a page at a time, use the PageUp and PageDown keys.
• You can also move through the menu by entering the number of the message you wish to go to.
Say you want to go to message number 500. Type the following:
500
When you press Enter, you will see a list of messages including message 500 (for me, it starts
with 495 and ends with 513- the number of messages in your list may vary).
• You can also enter:
* (Shift-8)
to go to the last message, or
=
to go to the first message.
• You can also search message subjects for a word, part of a word, or a phrase. Say you want to
find a message with the word "printer" in the subject. The search works similarly to searching in
vi. Type:
/ (a forward slash) to search forward (messages after the current message), or:
< Esc > / to search backward.
You will be prompted:
Search for:
printer
