Usage

Simple installation with default options:

include ::mutt

Using maildir in ~/.maildir

class { 'mutt':

  • config_file

    • String. Location of your global mutt config file.
    • Note: Do not change this unless mutt has been compiled to look for the config file elsewhere. Otherwise it just will not read the config file at all.

    • String. The printf style format for displaying email information in the mailbox view.
    • Default: If undef then we use mutt default.
