| description |
This plug-in lets you complete mutt aliases (listed in ~/.mutt/aliases) inside
Vim; useful when using Vim as editor for mutt (especially with $edit_headers).
(See also the shell script https://github.com/Konfekt/mutt-alias.sh to populate
the aliases file with recent e-mail addresses in your Inbox or Sent folder).
1. Usage
When you're editing a mail file in Vim that reads
To: foo
and in your mutt aliases file there is an entry
alias foo mister.foo@bar.com
and your cursor is right after foo, then hit Ctrl+X Ctrl+U to obtain:
To: mister.foo@bar.com
2. Commands
The command :EditAliases opens the mutt aliases file in Vim.
(For less typing, you can (command-line) alias it to ea by vim-alias
at https://github.com/Konfekt/vim-alias)
To complete e-mail addresses inside Vim press CTRL-X CTRL-U in insert
mode. See :help i_CTRL-X_CTRL-U and :help compl-function.
3. Setup
The mutt aliases file is set by $alias_file in the file ~/.muttrc. To
explicitly set the path to a mutt aliases file $file, add to your .vimrc the line
let g:muttaliases_file = '$file'
For example, $file could be
~/.mutt/aliases
4. Related Programs and Plug-ins:
To add mut aliases for all e-mail addresses found in a mail folder, such as the INBOX,
there is the shell script https://github.com/Konfekt/mutt-alias ; best run by a, say weekly,
(ana)cronjob.
The plugin https://github.com/Konfekt/vim-mailquery lets you complete e-mail
addresses in Vim by those in your Inbox (or any other mail folder).
