For example, having this in my ~/.muttrc: set folder=imaps://nicolas.kowal...@imap.gmail.com/ Let's say I have a "news" label defined in Gmail. It also appears as an IMAP folder "news", at the root of the IMAP hierarchy. When viewing a message in INBOX, if I want to label it as "news", then archive it, I just hit "s", followed by "=news". Mutt first copies the message in the "news" folder (labels it in Gmail), then removes the message from INBOX (archives it in Gmail). Gmail/IMAP things are explained in details here: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=75725 -- Nicolas
