[ILUG] mutt 1.2 out

 I don't use IMAP, but I've used all the devel versions 1.1.x,
 and the improvements in pgp support are almost alone worth it.

PLEASE READ THE FILE README.UPGRADE BEFORE INSTALLING THIS
VERSION OF MUTT OVER A PRE-1.1 VERSION OF MUTT!

New features include:

- heavily improved IMAP support (thanks to Brandon Long
  and Brendan Cully for their work),

- support for using IMAP over SSL (thanks to Tommi
  Kommulainen),

- a completely changed interface for configuring mutt's
  PGP support.  It's now format-based, and much more
  flexible than it used to be in the past.

- a split of the old edit-message command into
  resend-message and edit-message.  While the former gives
  you what could be described as "recall from arbitrary
  folders", the latter can be used to low-level modify
  messages.

- the weeding paradigma has changed.  Instead of options
  controlling weeding behaviour for all kinds of purposes,
  there is one global $weed option which is toggled when
  you use what used to be known as display-headers (now
  display-toggle-weed).  That is, you have some kind of
  "WYSIWYG" support with weeding.

- we have a muttrc (5) manual page now, and it's even
  up-to-date.

- you can better control your messages' header and
  envelope from headers

- the message commands on the attachment menu have been
  rewritten.  Just try replying to an attachment, and
  you'll see what happens. ;-)

- mailing list support has changed.  You may wish to
  rename your "lists" commands to "subscribe".  But please
  read README.UPGRADE before!

- Bug fixes of all sorts.
