then run the mails through gzip. the line "| gzip >> <folder>" will append
compressed data to the folder. this has nothing to do with mutt.
furthermore, the attitude behind the statement "...they can not work well
together" drives me up the wall. do you really silently expect any program
to foresee every users needs and integrate all possible solutions? this is
the opposite of unix thinking, where a number of independant little
programs to their speciality bound into a framework by a smart and small
operating system, which operates the same way. your statement reveals
micro$oft thinking: give the users one big babel tower, and if they can't
get their tasks done with it, it cannot be done at all!
gzip does not even have to uncompress the target file to append new data,
it handles compressed data streams well.
