Re: Switching pine to mutt - but...
Hi Daniel,
Thank you very much for your wonderfull Pine-muttrc. Now, I am really into mutt
instead of pine.
By the way, does mutt have anything similar to the pine's addressbook?? I know
the alias command can do that in mutt,
but I still find pine's addressbook is very usefull. Eg, if I want to send a mail to
10 people, I can just select them in pine,
but in mutt, do I have to type out all of those ten people's alias? Creating a
mailing list is not that usefull because I won't
send mails to these ten in future, and probably it will be a different 10 people
anyway.
Thanks for your help.
Shao.
