Hello everybody,
So these two pull requests [1], [2] allows neomutt to display the labels
from thunderbird. The documentation for that is here: [3].
By default, the labels from thunderbird are displayed as $label1,
$label4 and so on. To fix that, i used the tag-transofrms function.
tag-transforms "$label1" "important" \
"$label2" "WIP" \
"$label3" "mailinglist" \
"$label4" "done" \
"$label5" "revisit" \
"$forwarded" "F"
This allows me to change these thunderbird labels/IMAP keywords using
the modify-labels function:
bind index,pager y modify-labels
and with these additional seetings, the labels are displayed in the
index.
set hidden_tags = "NonJunk"
set index_format="%4C %Z %{%b %d} %-15.15L (%?l?%4l&%4c?) %s (%g)"
So far so good. But now i have questions.
1) Is that a bug that the tag pattern "~Y revisit" doesn't display mails
marked as such? Or which tag-modifier[4] works correctly here?
2) I would like neomutt to display mails labeled/tagged as "important"
to display as red, "done" as blue and such. But
color index_tag red white "important"
color index_tag black blue "done"
doesn't work. Also this version doesn't work:
color index_tag red white "$label1"
color index_tag black blue "$label3"
So now i wonder, what am i missing?
