Since it's been a long time since I did any of this, your suggestion sounds a 
bit daunting.

This is the bit where I need you to go slow ...

What I don't want to do is hammer what, at least right now, is working albeit

How does one go about recompiling Mutt and all the libraries it relies on?

Thanks,

Bj
