This.

If anything in there is confusing, then fall back to the over-arching
Mutt manual: http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/ .

If anything in *there* is confusing, then fall back to the supplementary
documentation written or sanctioned by Mutt developers/maintainers,
which includes an FAQ: https://gitlab.com/muttmua/mutt/-/wikis/home .

[Jude DaShiell]

is fleacollar.sh part of the distribution yet?  That bash script can do a
pretty good job configuring a .muttrc file and creating necessary
directory structure for mutt to use.

man 5 muttrc and / or looking at the sample one that should ship with
Mutt could be a start.

There's also some info at:

Syntax for creating Muttrc.

[M.R.P. zensky]

Can someone tell me the syntax for creating a Muttrc file on linux? I have 
installed it on linux and am trying to understand how to configure it.
