Yeah, that's bogus...  I *HAVE* read the docs for mutt.

And this whole "least munged" idea is pretty funny.  The line starts behind
me for throttling the person who takes away the Subject: munging.

I know some people like the removal of duplicate copies, and some people
HATE that mailman doesn't do that for you...  I don't mind it though -- my
list traffic goes off to their own mailboxes, but replies to messages go to
my main box which shows when somone has directly replied to one of my
messages right away, instead of waiting for me to check my list traffic
(which usually happens only daily).
