Hmm, I don't think this is really necessary because of two reasons. First of all, one doesn't need every variable to be set; second, I wouldn't switch to mutt if the first thing I saw was a file containing ~200 variables with lots of comments. But in fact, that's what the manual is for: sorted by category with good explanations instead of a short comment. If you like, just take manual.txt and reorder the variables in section 6.

There's a muttrcbuilder on the web which does produces muttrcs while variables are sorted by categories. Those people will certainly be interested in what you have to contribute. > I have begun categorizing the configuration variables. I > solicit comments and recommendations. Lots of people do it. But organizing muttrc highly depends on personal tasts and such. bye, Rocco
