 | Hi there,
a few days ago I discovered t-prot which prevents me from viewing TOFU-Style
Email (german acronym).
This works using the display_filter capability of mutt.
So far so good, but when I reply to a filtered Email, mutt just uses the
Original Mail.
Is there a possibility to setup mutt in a way, that a filter is applied to a
message before reply, e.g. using a hook or something?

the display_filter is only active when showing a mail. feature.

some editors have a "filter" feature.
should be as easy to apply as
the display_filter itself.
example for vi (and clones):
:%!filter
you could also "set editor=script"
which makes use of the display_filter -
but there are always cases
when you do *not* want this.
i suggest applying the filter
with an editor macro/mapping
when you *really* want it.

The Problem with this is the fact, that the message has already got massaged
by mutt when the Editor is going to handle it (quotes, Intro, signature,
etc.).
The t-prot Filter should be applied before doing so. In case of
display_filter f-prot can be turned of using macros this should be possible
in the reply case as well.

well, you can pipe the message through the filter
and then save the result in a temporary file:

bottom line: this is an editing issue.

of course you could add yao (yet another option) to mutt and
hope for its integration - but i wouldn't hold my breath.

more options?
