Re: wanderlust install question



After much pain, I am actually using wl (i.e., sending this
note.). :-)

Unfortunately, instructions not quite good enough for someone who just
wants to follow a recipe and get on with it... I.e., using CVS to get 
the code doesn't seem to fetch a "configure" script, which is the
second step of process...

This did it for me. Thanks!

Now, some quick questions, after having read various blogs and such
...

A lot of mail has long lines that don't automatically wrap. Is there
an easy fix?  I have tried the filladapt code at
http://emacs-fu.blogspot.com/2010/02/i-have-been-using-wanderlust-e-mail.html,
but it doesn't seem to work on all messages. It has no effect on
some... (Also, there doesn't seem to be  an "undo" to reverse the process --
sometimes the reformatted text is even less readable)

Also, I'm switching from MH and really miss the "-nocc" flag to prevent
cc's going back to me when I reply. I dump all outgoing mail into a
local folder, so I really don't need to also cc myself. Surely there
is a flag/setting for this?

Finally, is there an easy way to go directly to a particular folder? E.g., I
constantly switch back and forth between multiple folders. Do I really
need to exit the current Folder, go back to Summary and then re-visit
another Folder?  Wl seems to keep only one Folder around, not a Folder
per actual folder. 

Thanks in advance!
