Archivemail and Mutt-ng: msg#00038

Subject: Archivemail and Mutt-ng
Hi all,

When I was using mutt (not so long ago), I had a crontab command to
archive some mailboxes (mbox format). 

Example:

archivemail --include-flagged --suffix '_%Y' -o
~/Mailphb/archives ~/Mailphb/sentmail

where ~/Mailphb is my rootfolder.

In this example, I get a compressed mbox file
~/Mailphb/archives/sentmail_2005.gz, which I can open with mutt as a
normal mailbox, the file being decompressed on the fly.

Since I switched to mutt-ng, I had had no need to open one of my
archives mailboxes. Today, I tried to do it, and I found that mutt-ng
says "~/Mailphb/archives/sentmail_2005.gz is not a mailbox".

I switched back to mutt so as to check what was happening, and opened
the mailbox normally.

Am I missing anything, or is mutt-ng different from mutt on that matter?
