My mistake, I misremembered the way I installed mutt. I thought that this version only did header caching for mails in /var/spool/mail or something like that, and that you needed to patch it for it to do _IMAP_ header caching.

My own email to then maintainer dates from june, 5, 2005. As I said, I'd be willing but not wanting since I fear I would be incompetent.
