text-based mailreader supporting MIME, GPG, PGP and threading

Mutt is a sophisticated text-based Mail User Agent. Some highlights: 

 * MIME support (including RFC1522 encoding/decoding of 8-bit message
   headers and UTF-8 support).
 * PGP/MIME support (RFC 2015).
 * Advanced IMAP client supporting SSL encryption and SASL authentication.
 * POP3 support.
 * ESMTP support.
 * Message threading (both strict and non-strict).
 * Keybindings are configurable, default keybindings are much like ELM;
   Mush and PINE-like ones are provided as examples.
 * Handles MMDF, MH and Maildir in addition to regular mbox format.
 * Messages may be (indefinitely) postponed.
 * Colour support.
 * Highly configurable through easy but powerful rc file.
