Shouldn't be too big of a deal...something like:
apt-get source mutt
cd mutt*
dpkg-buildpackage -uc -b -d
dpkg --install mutt*.deb

Anyone have an alternate URL for this, or maybe just a tarball that you
could drop in an email to me? I don't seem to be able to get to this site
from either home or work.
Thanks...!

You use a Vim syntax file, i.e.
:set ft=mail
(just like how Vim highlights C or Perl code, it can also highlight
arbitrary patterns like emails).

I didn't, and yes (duh) it explains why I didn't see "T" in my mail list

Ok... so I'd have to agree... but why can't you just wrap aspell in a
