NeoMutt VS aerc

Open-source superhuman email client? I don't know... Maybe the author is not aware of mutt: http://www.mutt.org/ (or neomutt: https://neomutt.org/). Which in my opinion is way way closer to "superhuman". - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

[1]: https://neomutt.org/ > - The flow for "Dealing with feedback" in this tutorial will start a new email thread instead of replying to the existing one. Yes, for sending a new revision this is highly wanted – please do NOT send new patch revision to the same thread, that just crowds review and adds nothing. Simply add a changelog to the previous revision in the cover-letter and/or in each patch, i.e., after the... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

I would like to share this mail merge plugin that I just made, and which needs to be tested a little... I think (but I'm not sure!) that it didn't exist yet for neovim... For now, it works with neomutt, but I plan to integrate other cli email software later... If you have any suggestions, I'm interested! Source: over 1 year ago

I also use Neomutt for my email which lets me write a one-liner Cron job so I can email myself regular reports of whatever I choose. One of my reports is just telling me how much my BTC is worth at any moment which involves something small I wrote which records the BTC price every 5 minutes using cointop. The command cointop price -c "btc" outputs the price for me (although there are a ton of ways to do this too). Source: about 2 years ago

As for mail, I'm currently using Neomutt, with isync (unrelated to Apple) for offline IMAP storage and msmtp for SMTP. It's fantastic and does everything I want, including PGP signing and encryption, but there's a bit of a learning curve and it definitely isn't an all-in-one solution (i.e. You need to combine it with other apps/tools). It can be a bit daunting to set up, but there is a wizard script that can do... Source: over 2 years ago

You have some points, for some I do think it isn't as bad as you write. FWIW, some comments inline. > - You can't subscribe to a single PR/bug/feature-request thread. Subscription to the mailing list is all-or-nothing. And no, setting up email filters is not a reasonable solution. You can use tools like public-inbox or lei, the former is hosted for bigger projects on https://lore.kernel.org/ If you're interested,... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

> Another problem is how badly email threading is displayed in these clients. Email UI is still abysmal. Fair point. However, given that the current alternative is "use another service entirely (e.g. GitHub)", I think it would be fair to assume that devs could choose a good e-mail client and learn how to format such e-mails correctly. It works for Linux, for instance. I started using Aerc, and I love it:... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

For fans of Mutt/NeoMutt looking to try something new, I've been getting a lot of mileage out of Aerc[1] and can recommend it as a somewhat more approachable alternative for the Mutt-curious. [1] https://aerc-mail.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

Try aerc, I recently set it up and it was really easy to do. The only tricky part was making it so my password is read from the KDE wallet instead of being stored as plain text in the config file. Source: over 1 year ago

I'm not sure how much longer, but at least for me aerc still works with Outlook e-mails. Source: over 1 year ago
