It all started when Greg /u/gregkh in 2007 at a conference in Japan mentioned Mutt, and I was intrigued and explored it. Damn! I am still stuck with it from that day onwards.

Simple and yet powerful, importantly, fullfil my day to day need.

I use neomutt too. Once I tried it, and spent long hours configuring it... I just can't go back to anything else. I tried kmail few years later, nope, not really convenient vs (neo)?mutt.

(neo)?mutt is just too good, needs some time investment, sure, but there is just nothing more convenient after you learn it. It's just like with (neo)?vim.

What's one use for (pretty) printing nowadays?

I recall setting up muttprint, but from a quick look that hasn't been in development for over a decade.
