It does email fine without talking IMAP, too, but sometimes access to a
remote message store is good. I'd much rather use mutt's IMAP mode
than use mutt in conjunction with fetchmail.
This is just a defense against your last statement, though, not a
proclamation of opposition to what you're doing. That's actually a
very interesting idea.
So, on a related note: are there any other NNTP patches for mutt,
besides Brandon Long's 0.95 version? I'd imagine that they'll never
make it into the core, but I'm still interested.
