Strange, you did have another message in this report - a set of other
much more complicated conditions mutt would have to satisfy to avoid
disrupting UW's internal state. I don't know what happened to them. I
suppose I must have accidentally killed them.
At any rate, I disagree. It's not like UW's internal format is a
standard. It's changed before and may again, and in that case having
mutt fiddle with it in ignorance is likely to cause heartache for mutt
and UW. Feel free to link your copy of mutt to c-client :)
