But *you* would make an effort to determine *why* the expected text was
not displayed. And a simple google search will provide that as probably
would a search of the mutt package present on your computer for
documentation.
We have so many avenues available for information and problem solutions
that it is overwhelming, but *many* prefer asking a question rather than
looking for the answer first. {C,W}ould you call it "lazy curiosity"?
Linux home users for the most part and expected to also administer their
systems and that knowledge helps them to use that system. An earlier
question in *this* thread for the name of the distro in use yielded
"mutt". :^) Other questions were not answered.
