Introduction
Mutt is a powerful command line email client. It supports both mbox and Maildir formats. The protocols supported include POP3 and IMAP. It was originally designed to be a Mail User Agent (MUA) and used to rely on Sendmail but support for sending mail was eventually added.
Features
- Full MIME support, full PGP/GPG and S/MIME integration.
- Message scoring and threading capabilities.
- Mutt relies on external tools for composing and filtering messages.
- Support for mail threading
- Message composing is done using an external text editor of the users choice.
- Keyboard Macros for performing complex functions
- Extensible functions using patches
