The mutt package contains a Mail User Agent. This is useful for reading, writing, replying, saving, and deleting your email.
Mutt requires a group named 'mail'. You can add this group, if it does not exist, with this command:
groupadd mail |
If you did not install a MTA, such as postfix-2.0.7 or sendmail-8.12.9, you need to modify the ownership of /var/mail with this command:
chgrp mail /var/mail |
Install mutt by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc && make && make install |
--sysconfdir=/etc : This installs the configuration files into /etc instead of /usr/etc.
/etc/Muttrc, ~/.muttrc, /etc/mime.types, ~/.mime.types
No changes in these files are necessary to begin using mutt. When you are ready to make changes, the man page for muttrc is a good starting place.
The mutt package contains mutt, flea, muttbug, mutt_dotlock, pgpwrap and pgpring.
