Description

The Lite version is designed to be a free, barebones version of MUTT(tm). It's design criteria is simple: pack as many essential features as possible into a 32K executable.

As such, it lacks friendly menus and dialogs for configuration, and it's script parser is very rigid. However, if you are willing to spend the time to read the documentation and create some custom script files, you will find that the "Lite" version packs a lot of wallop.

I have avoided supporting toolbars in Lite, as they force you to repeatedly switch from mouse to keyboard - which can be a killer on battle muds. All operations in Lite are available via keyboard.
