DESCRIPTION
Neomutt is a small but very powerful text based program for reading and sending electronic mail under
unix operating systems, including support for color terminals, MIME, OpenPGP, and a threaded sorting
mode.
Note: This manual page gives a brief overview of neomutt's command line options. You should find a copy
of the full manual in /usr/share/doc/neomutt, in text, HTML, and/or PDF format.

options.

Specify a carbon-copy (CC) recipient

of 2 is recommended.
