As best I understand, M-F-T is a draft from 1997 that expired in 1998(?), never made progress towards becoming a standard (and is only implemented by a handful of other clients other than Mutt, none of which are super widely used / mainstream). This was true even ~ 20 years ago (just found an old thread from this list about the landscape then), and I don't think really much has shifted since. I like the idea of it, and Mutt's implementation of it, but in practical terms, if Mutt wants to be a standards-compliant mailer, IMO its default behavior should reflect this reality. w
