Not adding signature nor using org-msg-options under mu4e

Not adding signature nor using org-msg-options under mu4e

[jeremy-compostella]

Hi,

This is the expected behavior. If you don't activate org-msg-mode, the hooks for mu4e don't get added and called when you start composing a message with mu4e.

May I know you don't activate org-msg-mode ?

Regards,
Jeremy

Yes - I set it as a global mode. Here's the relevant part of my startup file

(use-package org-msg
:ensure t
:config
(setq org-msg-options "html-postamble:nil H:5 num:nil ^:{} toc:nil")
(setq org-msg-startup "hidestars indent inlineimages")
(setq org-msg-greeting-fmt "\nmHi %s,\n\n")
(setq org-msg-greeting-fmt-mailto t)
(setq org-msg-signature "

Regards,

#+begin_signature
-- *Mike* \\\\
#+end_signature")
(org-msg-mode)
)

Which is basically taken from the docs.

I also double checked the modes when editing a message (using c-h m) and it's in org-msg mode.

Thanks

Hi Mike,

Could you try the solution based on setting the mail-user-agent variable in #15 work for you. I suspect that something has changed with regard to this variable setting which make org-msg don't realize that you are using mu4e.

FYI, I don't use mu4e, I use gnus. Any help to resolve mu4e specific issues is very welcome.

Regards,
Jeremy

Hi Mike,

Does solution of #15 work for you ?

Jeremy

[zamansky]

Yes - it did!!!!! Thanks!!!

[jeremy-compostella]

Good. Now, I, we need to find a two fix instead of this workaround.

[jeremy-compostella]

Hi Mike,

it turns out this is not a workaround. As a mu4e user you have to set this variable (https://www.djcbsoftware.nl/code/mu/mu4e/Emacs-default.html#Emacs-default)

(setq mail-user-agent 'mu4e-user-agent)

Let me know if this line of code works for you. I am going to add this information to the documentation since two mu4e users struggled with this.

Regards,
Jeremy

Hi Mike,

It turns out that the Mail User Agent variable has to be defined by the end-user. I have improved the documentation of OrgMsg to reflect this requirement. Do you mind reviewing the documentation on the experimental branch and let me know if it is clear and accurate enough ?

That's fine. As long as you get to it this week. I would like to push it on the master branch end of this week.

[zamansky]

Just installed the experimental branch, tested it by following the docs and it all worked for me!!!

Thanks for being so super responsive on this (and sorry I couldn't be the same as I was the one raising the issue to begin with).

using emacs video on org-msg coming soon.

[jeremy-compostella]

Thanks you for your review. I pushed on the master branch.

If you make a video publicly available, let me know, I could add a link from the documentation.

[zamansky]

Jeremy, Just wanted to let you know, I posted a video on org-msg ( https://cestlaz.github.io/post/using-emacs-61-org-msg/). Thanks for the great package.

Mike,

I read the article and watched the video. This is an interesting presentation but I don't think that this is not centered enough on the org-msg to make it documentation material.

I appreciate that you shared your experience with org-msg and I got a bunch of new tickets as a follow up from your fans which probably more users :)

Regards,
Jeremy
