## Installation and Dependencies

dialog, neomutt and offlineimap should be installed. The contents of this repo should go directly in `~/.config/mutt/` and run from there. You also need to have a GPG public/private key pair for the wizard to automatically store your passwords. Otherwise you'll have to store them insecurely in plaintext files without the help of the wizard.
dialog, neomutt and offlineimap should be installed. The contents of this repo should go directly in `~/.config/mutt/` and run from there. You also need to have a GPG public/private key pair for the wizard to automatically store your passwords. Otherwise you'll have to store them insecurely in plaintext files without the help of the wizard. As a note, if you uuse a distribution like Void that uses GPG2 and not GPG, you should symlink /usr/bin/gpg to /usr/bin/gpg2 or wherever the GPG2 binary lives.

Just run `mutt-wizard.sh` for all the options.
