I have read this thread a bit...after reading this testimony I am very muchinterested in mutt! I got mutt and installed it about a week ago...along with pine. I really like pine so...it will take some convincing to get me over to mutt there are a few features of pine I like and if mutt has them then I would be happy to switch to mutt firstly I need the transparent integration of PGP that I get from pine + pinepgp scripts (ok not need but it makes my life a hell of allot easier!) I know this can be done with mutt....how do I set that up? (are there any docs on it?) also... I am getting used to pine keybindins...and also...the major thing I found lakcing in mutt was menus I like how pine has that menu always there so I can see what commands are available (it helps for quick learning of how to use it) also...its nice to have a list of my mailboxes that I can scroll through the last feature I would really use is the ability to have it automatically move read messages into another "folder" that way I have procmail deliver my messages sorted by folder... and all I have to do is goto my incomming folder for that list to read it then if I want an old one just goto th read one I know some of these features are a bit "extranous" but they make my life easier (sorry if some of these lines are too long...at work I hafta use nutscrape for mail) > I'm not sure... personally I dislike Pine's interface, but that is a matter > of taste. They don't differ too much anyway. Well there is no acounting for taste :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
