"openSUSE Linux Unleashed"

It
also does Evolution-style Search Folders.
Claws-Mail will also read Usenet news, but has no calendar function. The address book
supports multiple email addresses for one individual and has room for many free-form
user attributes, such as physical addresses, company, title(s), birthdays, and the like.
mutt
mutt is a text-based mail client that runs directly in the shell.
Originally based on another mail client called elm, mutt has taken on features and ways
of doing things from several of its brethren (hence the name). The interface is colorful for
a text screen, and the colors are configurable. You can see it in Figure 13.16.
This client??™s fans emphasize the power of the client and the ease with which they move
through their mail. Like KMail, mutt is highly attuned to mailing-list users, with threading
and list-reply options.
openSUSE defines a basic systemwide mutt configuration file in /etc/Muttrc. Open it as
root to configure mutt for all users on your system, but each user can have his or her own
Muttrc in the home directory. It??™s a relatively big file as configuration files go, so you can
see the kind of power you have.
