I grabbed mutt 1.2.5 (it didn't want to compile with slang for some
reason), and if I use the pretty-funky-looking options in mutt's contrib dir
for gpg things mostly work, but the standard needed options to turn on gpg
don't work (and the pgp_default_version option still isn't recognized).
While reading/writing my mailbox (an mbox, though it will soon become a
Maildir), the percent done is broken (stays at 0%); is this just a mutt
bug, or something that compiled/setup incorrectly? 
 
Also, I know that mutt at least used to not support folders over imap very
well (hard to browse them, nothing like browsing folders on the local fs);
has this changed any in newer versions of mutt?

thanks again,
