My customizations to the mutt formula for homebrew.

homebrew-mutt

Convenience repo with my customizations to the mutt formula for homebrew.

The following patches were added:

• Sidebar: enable with --with-sidebar-patch. [Source]

• Gmail Server Search: enable with --with-gmail-server-search-patch. Note that Gmail Server Search only works when directly connected to Gmail via IMAP. [Source]

• Gmail Labels: enable with --with-gmail-labels-patch. Originally based on a patch by Todd Hoffmann. Add %?y?(%y)? to your index_format to conditionally display the associated labels and make sure to disable header_cache. Labels 'Important' and 'Starred' are stripped from the list of labels. Note that Gmail Labels only work when directly connected to Gmail via IMAP.

How to install

If you had previously installed the default homebrew mutt, you must uninstall that version first:

> brew uninstall mutt

Then proceed with installation based on custom formula:

> brew tap sgeb/mutt
# There will be a warning regarding overriding existing formula 'mutt'

> brew options sgeb/mutt/mutt
# List of available options

> brew install sgeb/mutt/mutt --with-trash-patch \
  --with-sidebar-patch --with-gmail-server-search-patch \
  --with-gmail-labels-patch
# Compile and install customized mutt
