Can't send anything to Balsa
Last modified: 2009-10-30 14:07:37 UTC
Created attachment 146091 [details] [review] Patch for Balsa syntax If I try to send a file to Balsa, it fails every time. This is for 2 reasons: * Balsa creates a new mail either with option "-m" or option "--compose=", they have the same meaning. The command set in "Preferred Applications" is, at least at Ubuntu 9.04, "balsa -m". Nautilus-sendto appends "--compose=" which results in a double "balsa -m --compose=" and that doesn't work. * Double minus is missing in "--attach=". For reference: http://linux.die.net/man/1/balsa

You should look for " -m " to avoid false positives, and the addition of "--compose" was missing a space before (so you'd end up running "balsa--compose=...") > * Double minus is missing in "--attach=".
