Mastering Mutt : A Few Basic Commands
Now, why in the world would I want to use a text-based email client? It’s 2007 already. We’re using Feisty with Beryl and can burn our windows into oblivion upon closing. We can spin our cubes of virtual desktops until we’re motion sick. Ohh, and let’s not forget that Mozilla just released the long awaited Thunderbird 2.0! So, despite all this, why would I bother spending any time on the text based Mutt client? One, because I can (isn’t that the driving reason behind half of what we do sometimes!) and two, because it can come in handy. I’ve actually grown now to prefer it over Evolution or Thunderbird… but I’ll let you decide for yourself.
First of all, the thing that held me up, was not knowing how to access my account when I first opened Mutt. No in-application config to create your inbox settings and no handy ‘wizard’ to walk you through. So that led me to asking questions and doing a bit of reading. Here are a few of the methods I found for accessing your mail accounts:
