I confess I haven't dug my way through the entire debate on this, but so far I've seen argument along lines of: is it a necessary feature? if it is necessary, is it necessary to be supported in mutt per se, or can it be done externally?
I haven't seen any discussion of what use models it would harm to support this in mutt. Does anyone have an argument against? Lacking that, I would say that if someone submits a good patch it should be considered. To me it's a good enhancement request. (I can take the old "features are bloat, one tool for one job" trope for granted, but I don't find it very compelling in general and especially not in this case, where almost all the code necessary is already there in some fashion.) -- David Champion • d...@bikeshed.us
