I still use mutt on a daily basis.

Being able to select emails using regular expressions is super useful.

IMAPFilter is also simple and powerful to quickly sort email.






Yes! I use mutt for searching, tagging, thread operations (splitting,appending etc.), bouncing, attaching other mails, deleting attachments, openpgp (personal), smime (at work), and it works with IMAP out of the box.

I am also able to integrate (a locally hosted) LanguageTool to check the grammar in the editor.

The only issue is to write emails with embedded images. But personally I don't like such emails for occupying the space of the mailbox.


What do you use to fetch email? mbsync keeps messing up the UID of emails with gmail.

Personnaly, I use https://gitlab.com/shackra/goimapnotify , you can add a `~/.config/imapnotify/{{ youremailaddresshere }}.yaml` config file for each of your email addresses and enable and start it as a systemd service with `systemctl --user enable ---now goimapnotify@{{ youremailaddresshere }}.service`

Here is and example of a config file for a gmail address :

```

  host: imap.gmail.com
  port: 993
  tls: true
  tlsOptions:
    rejectUnauthorized: false
  username: {{ youremailaddresshere }}
  password: ''
  passwordCMD: pass mw/{{ youremailaddresshere }} | head -n1
  onNewMail: mailsync {{ youremailaddresshere }} | while read OUTPUT; do notify-send "" "$OUTPUT"; done
  onNewMailPost: ''
  onDeletedMail: ''
  onDeletedMailPost: ''
  boxes:
    - INBOX
```

> tlsOptions:

> rejectUnauthorized: false

Means trust any cert?


Yes, thanks for pointing it out, it should be true.

I took it from my config which I did a long time ago and I guess I didn't pay attention enough when doing it, my bad !

Just Mutt's IMAP support.
