you will have to write a *lot* to clear this up for every option...

is this really from you, too, Vincent?
i double-checked on this after i read it.

just as the INSTALL file cannot give
info about the installed mutt binary -
the manual cannot do this, either.

the goal, however, is clear:
better documentation and
the version info of mutt
needs to give more info, too.

i hope we still agree on these things.
