  Description     : Mutt next generation (mutt-ng) is a fork of the well-known email client mutt

(Include the long description here.)

Mutt next generation (mutt-ng) is a fork of the well-known email client mutt
 with the goal to both incorporate all the patches that are floating around in
 the web, and to fix all the other little annoyances of mutt.
 .
 Differences between mutt and mutt-ng:
  o Better view support for format=flowed attachments
  o Message IDs are configurable
  o User can set signoff_string just like in slrn
  o User can call up the "last folder" when saving attachments
  o IMAP reconnecting: when the connection to the IMAP server dies, mutt-ng
    attempts reconnecting
  o User can set the umask with which all the files shall be created (was
    hard-coded before, and caused huge problems for shared mailboxes to some
    people)
  o Support for NNTP, i.e. mutt-ng can be used as a newsreader
  o A sidebar similar to other (graphical) MUAs where you can directly jump
    to a certain mailbox
