% I was close to ask the same question. Mutt doesn't have this feature
I asked exactly this question, in fact, on 2000Feb08 but got absolutely

Patches often get posted here, though it's my understanding that patches
for release consideration should go to mutt-dev. I think that there's
also a patching guideline somewhere to keep the code looking the same,
but maybe not -- it certainly doesn't apply to me :-)
