Hi Jordi,
> - mailutils and mu conflict each other
Exactly the same way as mailutils conflicts with any packet that
installs mail[x] or readmsg or whatever. There are plenty of
those. Moreover, I doubt that Mailutils and maildir-utils are the only
two packets that contain a utility named "mu". Chances are there are
more (perhaps not yet packaged for Debian, but that does not change the
fact). The namespace is getting crowded more and more lately.

I see no compelling reason to do this.

You can change name of any utility when configuring the package. Here
are the options that control it:
Program names:
--program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed program
names
--program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program names
--program-transform-name=PROGRAM run sed PROGRAM on installed
program names
In particular:
--program-transform-name='s/^mu$/foo/'
will rename mu to foo before installing it. Just add something similar
to your debian/rules and the problem is solved.
Regards,
Sergey
