Heh. My progression of mail client use has been: - mail/mailx - elm - pine - mutt - mutt + evolution, depending on whether I'm local or remote. I'm now flipping back and forth between mutt, evolution, and squirrelmail, depending on where I am and what kind of environment I have available, all three bolting up to courier-imap (I would LOVE to see that added as an alternative IMAP daemon to the regular distribution, ala Postfix vs. Sendmail). I'm not a mutthead; hell, I barely understand half of it. But when I was messing around with Maildir delivery, I got sick of reworking the maildir c-client patches over and over; mutt solved that problem pretty quickly. Threading is good, color-matching is easily configured, but (in my mind) it suffers from the configurable-everything problem. If that's not a problem for you (and it usually isn't for the average geek like most of us here), you'll probably be right at home. -- Edward S.
