Outlook installation

[Mike Marchywka]

Thanks. I decided to try neomutt with gmail first at it looked simple but it would not login.
 Instead of cursing at it I logged into gmail which proudly told me
and my other account it had blocked the insecure app that had my correct password arrrgh. I guess I can find the way to turn that off but  another wild goose chase... 

Usually by the time I get through all the security features I'm too tired and disgusted to make sure anything
 secure....  At least with the hard disk thrashing around I can hear progress being made lol.

Mutt hasn't seen any big improvements in a while, I believe. There has
been some controversy over whether Neomutt is a fork or the official
future version. AIUI there are a few config-file differences and the
default behaviour may not be identical, but it can be configured to
be.

There's been a small argument in the openSUSE world because Neomutt
has now replaced Mutt in the default Mutt package. A few users were
very unhappy, but when they were told how to configure Neomutt to
behave exactly the same as Mutt, they were happy.

It certainly seems to be the console/text-mode email client of choice
for all the hardcore techies I know. They say things like "who needs
webmail when I can ssh into my box and do all my mail as usual with
Mutt?"

I am a decadent GUI user myself. I have sold my soul to Google. I
still trust Google more than MS (and Apple more than Google).

He said, top-posting. :-D
