Mutt strating up.
Hi.
I am working on strating up Mutt here. I got some setup from a friend of
mine:
Mutt is started up like this:
mutt -F ~/.mutt/muttrc
ls -al /home/erikja/.mutt
total 136

When I start up I receive this:
q:Quit d:Del u:Undel s:Save m:Mail r:Reply G:Group ?:Help
No mailbox is open.
If I made a mail, its sent, but I'm not sure to where.
Here is my mutt-path:
# Paths:
