I would like to start using Mutt on my Eee PC. I have done some searches
on the net, but despite (or maybe because of) the large amount of
documentation, I haven't really been able to ascertain whether or not I
am on the right track in drafting my .muttrc file. I am using Debian
Lenny and Mutt version  1.5.18.6 and just want to access my IMAP and
Gmail accounts, read manually selected e-mails, reply and/or delete
obvious junk, without actually downloading my e-mail to the Eee. I am
just looking for easy access to my e-mail without having to worry about
the amount of MB left on the Eee's SDHC card.

Here is my draft .muttrc, I am hoping that someone can respond and give
me some advice:

# Created Jan. 16, 2010

# IMAP/GMAIL
set realname = "Your realname"
set from = "Email address"
set imap_user = "yourusern...@foo.org"
set imap_pass = "yourpassword"

# Remote IMAP/GMAIL folders
set folder = "imap://imap.foo.org:000"
set spoolfile = "+INBOX"
set postponed = "+/Drafts"
set sent = "+/Sent"
set trash = "+/Trash"

# Local IMAP/GMAIL related folders
set header_cache =~/.mutt/cache/headers
set message_cachedir =~/.mutt/cache/bodies
set certificate_file =~/.mutt/certificates

# SMTP setup
set smtp_url = "smtp://yourusern...@smtp.foo.org:000/"
set smtp_pass = "yourpassword"

# Other
set move = no  #Stop asking to "move read messages to mbox"!
set imap_keepalive = 900

# For better looks
set markers=no # don't put '+' at the beginning of wrapped lines
set pager_index_lines= 5 # how large is the index window?
set sort = 'threads'
set sort_aux = 'last-date-received'

# My Editor
set editor='vim + -c "set textwidth=72" -c "set wrap" -c "set nocp" -c
"?^$"'

# Vim like keybinds
bind pager j next-line
bind pager k previous-line
