New post on how to filter out email using GNU Mailutils sieve command. It's great for organising email so that you can focus on the important ones!
Sieve's actually a standard. I thought you had to run a full Dovecot IMAP server to use it - overkill for filtering email! Turns out that Mailutils has a command line Sieve that can run after mbsync!

Also, a detailed page on Sieve:
Une macro (Neo)mutt pour marquer tous les nouveaux messages comme lus d'un seul coup :
macro index A \
"<tag-pattern>~N<enter><tag-prefix><clear-flag>N<untag-pattern>.<enter>" \
"mark all new as read"

It's a 2-for-1 weekend on the NeoMutt blog post series:
First, mirroring local IMAP with mbsync:

If you travel, or have some network latency then having a local cache of email will make the experience much better. Clients like Thunderbird have this built-in, for command-line tools like NeoMutt the best approach is to use mbsync.
Sharing @futurile's excellent blog series on how to configure #IMAP and #SMTP for #NeoMutt, including setups for Runbox.
Configure IMAP, SMTP or msmtp, set up multiple accounts - this tutorial has you covered.

Second part of my blog series on NeoMutt for CLI based email is out. All about how to configure #imap and #smtp for #neomutt :

Also if you're into #gmail or using a specialist email provider like @runbox then it's covered.

Les plantages réguliers d'#Evolution comme de #Thunderbird me font envisager de me remettre à #mutt ou #neomutt, mais j'ai la fleeemme de refaire les fichiers de config' qui vont bien. 
J’hésite à passer de Thunderbird à #Neomutt mais je me pose deux questions :
1. Existe-t-il un plugin qui permette, automatiquement quand la pièce jointe est trop lourde, de proposer la transformation de la pièce jointe en lien (notamment sur un serveur Nextcloud) ? C’est une fonctionnalité de Thunderbird dont je me sers très régulièrement.
2. Existe-t-il une distribution de Neomutt préconfigurée facile pour débuter, sur le principe de #Lazyvim , qui m’a aidé à sauter le pas vers #Neovim ?

My #commandline and #tui everyday productivity workflow is getting more solid: #taskwarrior, #jrnl, #offlineimap, #notmuch, #neomutt. I was using some of these tools one or two decades ago until I was tempted or forced onto GUI and cloud solutions by various projects. But now I can access my terminals from anywhere thanks to my #tailscale #vpn – no need for other people's clouds.
One of these days I'll write a proper blog post or series about this setup.

#neomutt: "Segmentation fault (core dumped)"
Schätze, wir wollen beide Wochenende.
To all users of #CLI apps to manage their emails, like #neomutt, #gnus, #notmuch, or #mu4e.
What email provider would you recommend that works well with our good old #terminal based applications? I recently learned that the CEO of #proton has decided to praise some authoritarian leader in the USA and I'm considering switching to another mail provider. Also, even though I appreciated the fact that I could make #mu and mu4e work with their bridge app, there were some issues, like the fact it tangled with messages (see https://github.com/ProtonMail/proton-bridge/issues/119).
I'm considering going back to Posteo or maybe switch to Mailbox which seems to offer interesting features. Do anyone knows good alternative that are somewhat privacy focused? Having the option to use a personal domain name would also be great, so I can stop switching email adresses.
@alexconquer Bah à moi ça m'a en général surtout servi à consulter mes mails avec des outils comme #mutt ou #neomutt.
Question for you!
Do you have any documentation, guides, or tips on how to get #neomutt's #autocrypt working with a chatmail server?
I've gotten as far as importing my keys so I can read messages from the mail server on both clients, but I can't figure out how to extract the keys from a message so I can add them and send successfully from mutt.
What am I missing?
Is it dumb not to take a job because you can't use #neomutt ? It is isn't it.
I wonder if/how this affects #neomutt : https://support.google.com/a/answer/14114704

With all that #fediverse effervescence, I just rediscovered #irc with #weechat, and realized that #neomutt also support #usenet servers. Going back to the source in a way.
@hyde @profoundlynerdy @thunderbird @vwbusguy use (al)pine at uni, eones ago. Now trying #neomutt. It’s fast and enough for my needs. Wonder if #pine or #alpine can be used with Unicode text and possibly with #nvi as editor, but for the moment neomutt is fine for me.
I am looking for a solution to my email problem. I need a searchable backup system for all my emails and make room on the servers. Preferrably in a format that's (
#gitAnnex) sync friendly (e.g. all just .eml files). A terminal-based Thunderbird alternative would also be nice. I see there's #mbsync #mutt #neomutt #supMail #nmail #alpine and so many more but no concise overview with feature comparison. What would you recommend?
