From: Tyler MacDonald on 8 Apr 2010 19:50 After over 10 years of faithful service (essentially when I ditched pine), I am considering having my mutt put down. Should I move over to gmail, or is there some amazing scriptable GUI mail client that is going to knock my socks off with an array of pipes and regexps and color-highlighting and maybe even procmail-parsing and custom keybinding? (Ideally I'd still like to use a terminal to compose/reply to most email, it's just the inbox/IMAP folder management/searching/etc that is getting too unruly for a terminal).

Both sup (sup.rubyforge.org) and notmuch (notmuchmail.org) are interesting works-in-progress that are based off the Xapian search engine, and have curses-based interfaces. For people who like the gmail interface, this might be of interest. me -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
