I suppose... my entire .muttrc is only 125 lines long, and over half
of those are aliases. I am not too particular about the UI, so all I 
did was customize color, some stuff about hiding headers, and setting 
the pager_index_lines to 5. 

HTML files are auto_view by dumping from lynx, mailcap catches
pretty much all attachments except documents generated from Microsoft
Office. 

The only things that took some time were figuring how to send mail
encoded in Big5 without having it mungled, and playing with
folder-hooks for threaded vs unthreaded display, as well as some
customized attributions and signatures according to mailing-list. 

Every now and then, I would go back and browse through the Mutt manual
to see if there's anything else I can use to make life simpler.
