Okay so here's the deal. I've got a school email adress (say romeo@school.com
) that is held on an outlook server.
Because I really dislike outlook, I have this mail forwarded to a gmail address (say romeo@gmail.com
).
I've managed to set up mutt and gmail so that when I send a mail from the gmail account, it seems as if it is sent from the school account (the "from" and "reply-to" fields show romeo@school.com
instead of romeo@gmail.com
).
Now, I've started using the gmail account as a normal email address too (putting that in contact info) so poeple start mailing me at romeo@gmail.com
, yet some poeple still email me at romeo@school.com
.
Is there a way to set up mutt and gmail so that it automagically replies using the correct email address (eg the one the mail was sent too in the first place)?
First, you have to also set up your gmail, so it sends e-mail from both addresses.
Then you can add to lines in .muttrc:
alternates "romeo@school.com|romeo@gmail.com"
set reverse_name
