I am a mutt newbie. It seems to me that configuration of mutt would be
easier if:
* muttrc contains the entire set of mutt configuration variables (variables
not applicable to the particular installation may be commented out, using #)
* the configuration variables are grouped in categories, such as the
following (this list is incomplete):
user interface
message composition
attachments
file copy of messages
message headers
message display
message transmission
message printing
mailboxes
address qualification
user personalities
encryption & ssl
message piping
message scoring
message signatures
searching
sorting
MIME
mixmaster
POP
IMAP
MH
aliases
* each variable would be accompanied by a brief comment regarding
applicability and proper usage
Are there drawbacks to such a scheme? Would anyone be interested in
posting a copy of the commented configuration file? Would this project
have the blessing of the author of mutt?
I have begun categorizing the configuration variables. I solicit comments
and recommendations.
