Mutt: The mongrel of e-mail clients

Mutt is a new mail user agent, based on Elm but also taking idea from many others like MUSH and PINE. IMO Mutt is the best mail reader around, even better than Elm and that says a lot.

The author used to be Michael Elkins who also worked on Elm. Now, Mutt is maintained by a team of developpers.

The main site is here

Here are links to the main Mutt-related sites:

• Sven Guckes Mutt Page
• Felix von Leitner’s Mutt page

Sven has a nice Mutt page too with many things like a complete documentation, an Elm vs Mutt comparison and a wishlist.

My own – a bit old though now – .muttrc: roberto’s .muttrc

A script to convert Elm’s aliases.text into separate .*_aliases for Mutt. Highly specific to my configuration but not difficult to adapt to your own site.

The first one is a rewrite in Ruby, the original one was in Perl.
