I’ve wanted to use a text-based e-mail client for quite some time now, and never got around to it. I remembered using pine in the past for pop stuff, but people say mutt is much better. So, I gave it a shot, and I have to say, I’m not impressed.

The documentation is horrid. It took me forever to find out about the ‘move’ config option, so I could finally get it to shut up about moving things from IMAP to my local directories (which I didn’t want in the first place).

Now I can’t figure out a way to make it so I can see what’s in an IMAP directory with subdirectories. For instance, I’ve got Saved/Work, Saved/School, etc… but for some reason, I can only look in Work, or School, not Saved/.

Something tells me this might not be worth it.
