\_ I doubt it. Mutt is the most versatile, most powerful mail agent in \_ existence. Ah, the cry of someone who has never used emacs to code a hook into emacs' version control suite, auto submitted that change to a daily log, and auto email the result to a administrator. Do that in Mutt, if you can. :-) I've done it in emacs. You'll never ever convince me that Mutt is *more* powerful than emacs without a long pitched battle first, and perhaps not even then. You might convince me Mutt *approaches* emacs in vanilla configuration without much of an argument tho. Not to start more holywars than necessary, I'll admit to actually having used :map in vi on purpose and had it do what I wanted it to. David
