Muttlisp! Woohoo!  http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/#muttlisp

I've never done much with lisp, but it has always seemed the most
_imperative_ language I've ever seen. And a great minimal yet functional
thing to choose to embed for programmability.

I also love now neatly using Lisp's bracketed syntax inserted into mutt
lines as a clean escape into Lisp.

I was excited by the possibility too.  :-)

However, just so everyone is clear, MuttLisp is more of a syntactic enhancement for the muttrc than a real language. You can use it to make some decisions, but it doesn't have functions, lambdas, loops, or its own variables. Of course, maybe that will expand in the future!

See the manual examples to get an idea what it can currently do.
