No, that's not what I meant (using the term "layout" was obviously confusing - sorry for that!). I think we're talking about two possible, but very different concepts of a client here: One is the one-off command (with options) that outputs a result, either on stdout or saved to a file. This could make for an interesting project, but I think then it would really make more sense (like Steve said) to extend the existing `mailman` command instead of writing a new one. The other (and the one I had in mind) is a tool you invoke with a commando which then offers a interface a little different from that of your standard terminal shell (bash or else). Just like you invoke the mysql/sqlite3 client (with a db name or file as option). What I meant by "layout" is really the question what happens after one starts the tool by typing something like `$ mmclient --list=f...@bar.id`" or `$ mmclient --domain=python.org`", not the actual visual representation. Does that make more sense?
