Mutt is one of the most rewarding programs one can use, but can be a pain in the ass to configure. Since my job is making power-user tools available for the masses I want to create a tool that automates most of mutt configuration so that users can simply give their email address and get a /comfy/ setup. At that, I don't just want a mutt wizard, but an offlineIMAP wizard, so users can easily access their mail offline as well, and a wizard that makes it easy to store passwords securely using gpg.

neomutt and offlineimap installed. This repo should go directly in ~/.config/mutt/ and run from there.

• The main scripts mutt_install.sh can create or add an account from a domain in domain.csv to ~/.offlineimaprc without a problem.
• It also creates a email-specific settings for your muttrc, which are outputed in the accounts/ directory in your mutt directory.
• It uses your gpg encryption to store your encrypted password in credentials/, where there are also two scripts that allow mutt and offlineIMAP to decrypt the passwords when needed.

If you use mutt with a particular host or domain, put your server information in domains.csv! This will make everyone else who uses your email provider's life much easier!

Or you can help monetarily via Patreon or Paypal!

• Expand the list of server information in domains.csv, including adding spoolfiles/records/postponed folders for each account.
• Write scripts that do the following:
  • Stat ~/.offlineimaprc and the the mutt configs to see what accounts are currently available. (Done, currently in removeaccount.sh; needs integration.)
  • Delete a profile from above if requested. (Done, currently in removeaccount.sh; needs integration.)
  • Add a profile above if requested, including:
    • An automatic search of domains.csv for server information. (Done)
    • An ncurses menu for inputing server settings if not available in domains.csv. (Soon, see manual.sh)
    • Differential actions for Gmail accounts since these are distinct in offlineIMAP. (Done)
  • Configure notmuch with all accounts.
  • A prompt for adding encypted passwords for each account available.
    • Or directions for adding plain text passwords if desired.
