Welcome to mutt, Nils! :-)

I was fortunate enough to have elm in place (after all, PINE Is Not Elm)
and to never be subjected to PINE.  My transition to mutt was seamless :-)

I thought I might address this...  A cached folders discussion has just
come up, and there are reasons that such behavior is both good and bad,
but who knows if a patch may come out.  At any rate, though, mutt works
with lots of different types of folders.  If your folders are big and you
want them to stay that way (instead of moving much of your old stuff off
to an archive folder -- which might be compressed, too), you might play
with changing formats to see if any open faster than others.  Just make a
copy of your original folder (in whatever format it is) to go seamlessly
back if you don't like the change; we've just had a report that some of
the headers can get mucked up by going back and forth and back again.

% I don't know if there is a option for that, but I believe not.

See the note above :-)
