Yes, exactly what happened.

Mutt is elm or Pine on steroids... I have never found anything faster,
or more configurable. I have tried about 30 MUA in Linux, but always
wind up with Mutt. Would be happy to talk about procmail, etc, and the
finer aspects of Mutt.  One of my mboxes is 17GB mbox and Mutt gets it
in just a few seconds. <g>  Macros via key remapping is cool too.. I use
it to change editors, from vim to emacs, or send new mail by different
addresses, a 1000 things on the fly.  Have you looked into profiles...
you can have completely different profiles for each usergroup or
whatever... also Gnupg is fully supported the way it should be by having
complete PGP/MIME compliance, so your attachments are automatically
encrypted too. .. I'll shut up now <g>
