Taking this argument to extremes, Mutt can contain *NO CODE* and that argument still applies. The user is still free to implement whatever missing features he wants, using shell scripts to glue together self-written programs and other utilities. So if less code is always better, then let's do that. I'll send you a shell script called mutt which does nothing but launch commands specified on the command line, and you can implement whatever features you want on top of that using whatever means you like. Please use that to read all your mail for 10 days, and then tell me that having features you want coded into your mailer isn't better. -- Derek D.
