Right now, on my system, t-bird is using 76MB RES & 200MB VIRT

And I thought that sylpheed-claws-gtk2 is using too much at 17MB
resources and 38MB virtual. Reminds me why I stopped using T-bird
and a bunch of others.

This is one huge advantage of Mutt.  The memory footprint is
unbelievably small, particularly in light of how much power it offers.

But that is not a fair comparison with T-bird... what about all the other programs you must use to get the same functionality?
