1.1 Mew's features

The features of Mew 6.1 are as follows:

• - You can easily display a very complicated structured message. What you should do to view messages is just type ‘SPC’.
• - If you know how to do file operations such as copy, you can compose a very complicated message without any difficulty.
• - You can start to read messages before they are all fully listed.
• - Since Mew preserves lists of messages in Summary mode, when you move messages to a new folder, they will automatically be listed incrementally.
• - Mew neatly suggests default folders for refiling. Those who receive many messages cannot live without this feature.
• - In Draft mode, you can complete field names, e-mail addresses, receiver's names, domain names, and folder names.
• - You can easily search messages with keywords etc.
• - Mew automatically decodes messages encrypted with PGP or S/MIME. It also automatically verifies signed messages.
• - You can easily encrypt or sign a message with PGP or S/MIME.
• - It takes a bit of time to analyze MIME syntax or to verify a PGP or S/MIME signature. While the user is reading a message, Mew processes the next message so that the next message can be displayed faster. Analyzed messages are cached briefly.
• - You can view multiple folders simultaneously.
• - Selection/Thread, a mechanism to display the flow of messages, is supported. You can make Selection from messages matched to a keyword and make Thread from the Selection.
• - When you input a folder name, you can search it with a substring of the name.
