Definitely seconded (she says, eyeing an /etc/inittab that is now more
comments than commands).

"quick start guides" to specific items. Yes, ninety percent of the

The manual is wonderful as a comprehensive reference. What we need
are more "How do I get GnuPG working with mutt?", "How do I set a
different 'From_' line", "What can/can't I do with colours" and
(ugh) "Pattern-matching for people who want to spend ten minutes
reading at a maximum and then be able to add one or two simple
patterns into their muttrc" documents: documents that focus on
that one thing and nothing else.
I don't know whether those are things that should go into the main
mutt tarball. I think they're probably better as links off
www.mutt.org. Someone did a nice guide to something a while ago:
I think it was Mutt and setting up groups of hooks for particular
addresses. That's the kind of thing I mean.
