NNTP patch questions

2001-05-21 Thread Louis LeBlanc
Hey all. You've all been great with recent learning curve issues while I learn about mutt, so thanks. In a previous response, someone mentioned nntp patches for mutt, and a pointer to the link page. I looked, and there are actually 4 patches. I haven't had a chance to look at them all in

I use mutt. I love it. It's easily the best-of-breed as far as mailers go, gui or not. I do most of my work in terminal windows, or at the console, so I tend to use a text-based browser quite a bit (in addition to the fact that it's REALLY fast to browse with no graphical overhead). I'd used
