## Installation and Dependencies

`dialog`, `neomutt` and `offlineimap` should be installed. You also need to have a GPG public/private key pair for the wizard to automatically store your passwords. The whole repo should be cloned to `~/.config/mutt/`. (If you have a previous mutt folder, you'll want to back it up or delete it first.)

You will want to delete or rename your current `~/.offlineimaprc` as well, as although you can later modify the `~/.offlineimaprc` produced by the script, you must have no file there the first time you add your first account or the wizard will assume some settings are already set which aren't.
|
||||
|
||||
Just run `mutt-wizard.sh` for all the options, to install an account:
|
||||
|
||||
* First, select the "Add an account" option and give the script your account information.
|
||||
* Second, in a separate terminal, start your mail sync by running `offlineimap` or `offlineimap -a <your account name>`. This will start downloading all your mail for offline access.
|
||||
* Third, once your mailbox has started to download, reenter the script and select the "Auto-detect mailboxes" open. This will finalize the install and let you open up mutt to see your mail.
|
||||
|
||||
Whenever you want to check for mail, just run the `offlineimap` command again.
|
||||
Just run `mutt-wizard.sh` and choose to add an account. After you do so, you may run `offlineimap` to begin the mailsync, and you will be able to run neomutt and see your mail.
