I do think that all changes in mutt-ng will be sooner or later also implemented into mutt-devel. So it is not importnat which mutt one is using.. -devel or -ng :). good night, -- martin hudec * 421 907 303 393 * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://www.aeternal.net "Nothing travels faster than the speed of light with the possible exception of bad news, which obeys its own special laws."

I have switched from mutt-devel to this baby.. it is pretty good, and it offers few things I was missing in mutt-devel, like imap headers caching etc. One can switch between mutt-devel and mutt-ng pretty easily.. there is also good script to convert .muttrc config file into .muttngrc. For more information go to http://mutt-ng.berlios.de/.
