I am blind and, the last time I tried enablign the thread support in Mutt it made the display very "graphical", to render the tree structure of a thread I think. Although I can certainly see the value of such a rendering for sighted users, in my case I must say it made everything rather messy and I had to renounce to it, in spite of my interest for the feature. So, TBH I do miss the "Re: " prefix in your messages. And, this was another topic I wanted to discuss anyway: is there a way to enable threads commands but not the thread display? Best wishes, Seb.
