figure out how to get the 3rd or middle button to work.
When I ran redhat, it got probed and configured

Greetings,
I've been looking into gpg and mutt. I read on the mutt faq to "include"
gpg.rc "with" my muttrc. Thing is I don't know what they mean "include"?
Does mutt accept #include like c++?
As a previous note listed I added the set pgp_autosign in the .muttrc already.

Hi!
I'm interested in trying out skipstone (an alternative to galeon that
