Just in case anyone has wanted to use vim for editing emails.I had
wanted to use a text editor to speed up answering emails and
considered Mutt and Emacs. I had used Thunderbird for sometime and
liked the app. A text email client seemed the answer but i wasn't that
impressed by Mutt.

However, i'm not as knowledgeable as some and setting up Mutt was ok
but still involved quite a bit of work. I got it all working and did
appreciate your help.

Yesterday i came across a Thunderbird addon Muttador (still beta stage
- vi editor) and today came across a non-mozilla TB addon called
Exteditor...

some v.clever person has developed an external editor addon instead of
the TB editor. It allows emacs, vi, joe, gedit or whatever to compose
emails - good deal better than using Mutt.

Should be of interest to anyone who wants to say goodbye to the mouse
while editing emails. I always liked TB and like it even more... now!
Some may be interested in TBs ImportExportTools for archiving mail - i
don't know what folk do... this is the only email clinet i've found
that does the job.
