That will get you 1.5.18
In general, I think that you will find that macports packages are better
maintained than fink.
To see the available add on features
port variants mutt-devel
which gives:
idn: Internationalized Domain Name support
pop: POP support
imap: IMAP support
ssl: Secure Sockets Layer support
sasl: Simple Authentication and Security Layer support
debug: Debugging support
gnuregex: Use the GNU regular expression library
compress: Compressed folders
headercache: Enable header caching (requires gdbm or qdbm)
qdbm: Use QDBM database
gdbm: Use GNU dbm database
db4: Use Berkeley DB database
nntp: NNTP support
deepif: Allow nested if-else sequences in strings
date_conditional: Allow the format of dates in the index to vary
based on how recent the message is
xlabel: Custom message-tagging - X-Label:
smtp: Include internal SMTP relay support
trash: Add a Trash folder
sidebar: Add a sidebar with a list of folders
gpgme: Enable GPGME crypto support
So for example to add imap, headercache, and ssl support do
port install mutt-devel+imap+headercache+ssl
Best,
Marc
