Thanks Martin and Bernd. Sounds much like the equivalent features in
other mail clients (e.g. fine-grained colour highlighting,
categorisation, flagging, limiting, searching, scoring, etc.), except
that it spans all messages rather than just one mailbox. Because I keep
'sent' and 'received' e-mail in separate mailboxes, a flaw in my usage
of mutt is that it is inconvenient to construct some threads because one
half of the conversation is missing.
