home directory settings

Just in case I need these for elsewhere, there are a few bash and program settings that I like to have around.

Bash (.bash_profile)

#set your preferred editor
export EDITOR=vi
export VISUAL=vi

# Make ls easy
export LS_OPTIONS='--color=auto'
eval `dircolors`
alias ls='ls $LS_OPTIONS'
alias ll='ls $LS_OPTIONS -l'
alias l='ls $LS_OPTIONS -lah'

Mutt (.mutt/muttrc)

# Set the mailbox type you have.
set mbox_type=Maildir 

# Set the default folder
set folder = ~/Maildir/
set spoolfile = ~/Maildir/
# Don't ask to move your email on exit.
set move=no

# Give it a default from address.
set from="Alastair Campbell <name@example.com>"

# ignore all sorts of rubbish headers.

Mailfilter (.mailfilter)

if (/^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*/)
       {
        to "/dev/null"
       }

if (/^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*/)
       {
           to "$HOME/Maildir/.spam/"
       }
