After many years of using mutt the lack of flexibility really started to eat away at me. I decided I'd write my own console-based mail-client with a real/complete scripting language.
The result was very flexible and customizable for myself:
https://github.com/lumail/lumail/ https://github.com/lumail/lumail/
https://lumail.org/ https://lumail.org/
Unfortunately after 10+ years of self-hosting my email on a virtual machine I've now switched to paying for GSuite, so the project has become orphaned. For a while I thought there was a chance it would become popular and useful, but I guess the userbase for these kind of applications is pretty small - almost everyone still using mutt does so because they love it, and are used to it. Changing isn't an easy thing to do.
I'll be interested to see how Aerc turns out:
