The mutt site is really more a vast collection of links, and I'm more likely to align with Robert here -- if you're recommending the product ostensibly you know something about it, and it might be much more sensible to ask a direct question as opposed to sifting through a very lengthy list of URLs, not a few of which are either stale or linked to further punchlists of arcane commands, in order to get a quick piece of information that can be answered in a one-line reply.
Now you're not paying attention. I did answer in a one-line reply.
I did not say you hadn't.
I said it was "fully customizable". And I rarely exaggerate. But that wasn't good enough for Rob.
So you felt that resorting to rudeness was the most proper response?
Did you get beaten up a lot in school or something?
I was going to ask what would be the most effective way to get mutt working with a remote POP system *and* synced with my pre-existing mail folders, but perhaps it wouldn't be a good idea. Perhaps I should try sifting through those pages instead.
It is in the FAQ.
Hadn't got to that part of the FAQ. There are several sections of it, you know.
If you don't like participating in discussions, especially about things you seem to like, why are you on a discussion list?
I don't like repeating myself, I don't like answering FAQ's when I have provided a link. I do like participating in interesting discussions where people pay attention and think or read a little bit before they post.
Well it would seem, based on the nature of your comments here, that you are on the wrong list.
