readlists in short rl, is a frontend for mailers like mutt to handle multiple mailboxes more conveniently.
A few years ago (in 1998) I started to use ELM (and later mutt) along with several mailfolders. I wanted to have a little program that acted as a front-end to mutt to make reading of multiple mailboxes easier.
The result was readlists, or rl as I shortly afterwards abbreviated it. Last year, when we upgraded out mail server to FreeBSD 5.4, we decided not to install ELM anymore, which left a void as this package also provided the command nfrm. Since rl already contained all the code needed for such a command, this was added, as well.
Requirements:
libxml2
ncurses
pkg-config
What's New in This Release:
Stop displaying deleted messages (indicated by X-Status header)
Add < show_old_mail/ > option to the config file, to show old mail by default
Add flag -n and option < newest_first/ > to reverse the displayorder. The default is oldest first
