Summary:                    compile mutt --with-sasl and --with-hcache
Description: 
http://durak.org/sean/pubs/software/mutt/optionalfeatures.html#caching
The mutt headercache feature downloads mail-headers for IMAP mailboxes and
thus saves time when opening mailboxes, especially when the folder in
question contains a lot of mails.

http://durak.org/sean/pubs/software/mutt/optionalfeatures.html#id408431
SASL automatically chooses the most safe authentication method if the
mailserver has SASL enabled.  

Unfortunately both features rely on other librarys, probably the reason
why those neat features where not included in the first place.

Cheers,
  Markus

z1k, thanks for testing. The build in testing was missing some build
options which are present in the mutt version from current.

+USE_SMTP
+CRYPT_BACKEND_GPGME
+USE_SSL_OPENSSL

I have added the relevant ./configure flags to the Makefile and built
updated mutt packages which are now also available from testing. (Guess
that's okay with you, Dago).

mutt_base-1.5.20,REV=2010.01.19-SunOS5.8-i386-CSW.pkg.gz
mutt_ncurses-1.5.20,REV=2010.01.19-SunOS5.8-i386-CSW.pkg.gz
mutt_base-1.5.20,REV=2010.01.19-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz
mutt_slang-1.5.20,REV=2010.01.19-SunOS5.8-i386-CSW.pkg.gz
mutt_ncurses-1.5.20,REV=2010.01.19-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz
mutt_slang-1.5.20,REV=2010.01.19-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz

Dago, as a side remark: Do we really need to keep the slang version
around? Its existence adds three more packages to the catalog (mutt_base,
mutt_slang, plus a mutt stub which we would need to keep for existing mutt
users). I will try to reproduce the error behaviour of the slang version
described in http://www.opencsw.org/mantis/view.php?id=3648 so that we get a
better feeling for what's up with
slang, but already now my KISS gut feeling tells me it would be wise to
just maintain one version of mutt, be it slang OR ncurses, not both.
