Package: mutt
Version: 1.5.16-3
Severity: minor

(This may be the most frivolous bug I've ever filed.  My apologies.)

When using the attach-message command, mutt displays "Tag the messages
you want to attach!" on the bottom line.  The use of an exclamation
point for such a mundane directive seems like overdoing it to me.  To
quote the Interface Hall of Shame: "The exclamation point adds nothing
but perceived resentment! Don't do it!"

There, I feel better now.  :)

Hi,
sorry I have to resolve this.
Unfortunately I cannot submit a patch upstream for an exclamation point :-)
