## Historique du projet et usages

Mutt is one of the long-running Unix text-mode mail user agents. The project page credits Michael Elkins as the original author and says maintenance moved to the members of the Mutt development mailing list. LWN's account traces its design to Elm, with ideas from Pine and Mush contributing to both the feature set and the name.

### Historique du projet

Mutt established its role by being a keyboard-driven, highly configurable MUA rather than a complete groupware client. Its manual emphasizes MIME mail, key bindings, macros, threading, pattern matching, hooks, color configuration, OpenPGP/GPG, S/MIME, IMAP, POP, and SMTP support. In practice users pair it with external editors, local mail stores, MTAs, filters, indexers such as Notmuch, and sync tools, which fits the Unix style of composing small programs.

### Modes d'utilisation

The 2.0 release was a notable milestone because it marked a major-version update for a tool with roots in the 1990s and brought interface and configuration refinements while preserving Mutt's terminal-first model. In package-manager terms, Mutt is a baseline text email client: it is packaged broadly across Unix-like systems, and NeoMutt exists as a closely related fork or variant that collects extra features and patches for users who want a more batteries-included branch of the same tradition.
