62 Hi Walter,
63
64 I'd be interested to see how this integrates in your workflow, I'm
65 looking for a similar solution myself. The current functionality of
66 mutt/neomutt leaves a bit to be desired when using it as described.
67
68 P.S thank you Nils for introducing this to me, I will likely take the
69 plunge in the near future.
