You can extend mutt by using macros with scripts that you can load in addition to your .muttrc, or you can source the scripts directly. Here is a script I load in mutt with a macro when I need it: #!/bin/sh lab=$1 file=$2 formail -A "X-Label: NA" < $file > $file.tmp mv $file.tmp $file sleep 1 touch $file I would guess that much or most of the things you can do with Gnus can also be done in mutt, but only in a different way. Is there something specifically you would do in mutt that you do in Gnus now? Jostein
