Oh, OK, now it's clear. Personally, I try every now and then to look
for alternatives to Mutt because it _is_, indeed, much uglier to look
at than, say, KMail and I'd like to have a folder tree viewable in a
sub-pane. But every time I go back to Mutt because it simply has more
features and flexibility (as far as _my_ email client needs go, of
course) than the competition. I still have to try it as newsreader,
though.
