-use smartphone to reference recent emails, or export specific emails to read as
-a text file. Edit new messages using vim to be pasted in and sent when

+What I want when online:
+
+- instant (<1 seconds) email send
+- with MUA open, instant (<1 seconds) email receive (IMAP IDLE)
+- with MUA closed, regular (15 minute) imap synchronization, and single command
+  to quickly synchronize and send any queued messages
+
+What I want when offline:
+
+- full email archive to search over, sort, reply, etc
+- cache send messages to an outbox folder, to be sent later (or deleted before
+  connecting)
+
+Compile mutt-kr:
+
+    $ sudo aptitude install offlineimap notmuch libgpgme11-dev libnotmuch-dev \
