Mail in a muted thread is still received, but it bypasses the inbox. -- GDB has a 'break' feature; why doesn't it have 'fix' too?

I am giving first aid after the war but still it will help. I can give a lot of relief to those of you who had nervous breakdowns and blood pressure problems due to spam mails getting in the way of useful technical stuff. It is not hard at all. First thing is install mutt from packages. # pkg_add -i mutt (Choose one of the flavors) Then get a cool muttrc. If you want mine mail me offlist. There are several good ones floating on the Internet ocean. Next ensure this. It is most critical. $ grep sort ~/.muttrc set sort="threads" Now just watch the fun.
