My favorite email client is Mutt, so that's why we're installing this one. Feel free to skip the installation of Mutt and install your own favorite client. After all, this is going to be your system. Not mine.
If your favorite client is an X Window client (such as Netscape Mail) then you'll have to sit tight a little while till we've installed X.
