I use aerc as my goto email client every day.

bandwhich: Terminal bandwidth utilization tool sc-im: A very capable terminal based spreadsheet program. bpytop: Linux/OSX/FreeBSD resource monitor broot: New way to see and navigate directory trees daff: provides efficient table comparison and alignment, supporting formats like CSV and SQLite, making it essential for data analysis and synchronization tasks. It's indispensable for those requiring accurate data comparisons in analysis, development, or data integration projects.

I used to use aerc, though mutt is more powerful. Might switch to neomutt. Sc-im is great, however may be really confusing sometimes.

Do you have examples for things that don’t work with aerc but with mutt? Since I found the template functions in aerc, for an easy example:

fs = :filter -H<space>subject:"{{.SubjectBase}}" <Enter>

To filter mails with the same subject. And additional the possibility to pipe everything through the shell, I don’t know what mutt can do that aerc can’t.
