If I understand correctly, I allows you to compose email in an editor on another tmux window (or screen or graphical editor, but I don't use those), forking it out of Mutt.

Yes, that's right.
I've tried it out with the bgedit-screen-tmux.sh script, but it fails. I think the problem is that the Mutt version I'm running is a bit old (1.10.1).
Background editing was added in version 1.14.0. A concise list of new features by version is at <https://gitlab.com/muttmua/mutt/raw/stable/UPDATING>. More verbose descriptions of notable features can be found under <http://www.mutt.org/relnotes/>.
is there any pre-compiled binary I could use before trying to compile it myself?
I don't know if Devuan is package-compatible with Debian, but I believe Debian has backported 2.0.2 into buster-backports. -- Kevin J. McCarthy GPG Fingerprint: 8975 A9B3 3AA3 7910 385C 5308 ADEF 7684 8031 6BDA
