## Useful key remaps

These need to be placed in your `muttrc` file. I use vim and so I want to use some of the
same commands to manage my mail.

```muttrc
# Does not replace and currently mapped keys and acts like the vim command gg and takes
# you to the top of the page
bind index gg first-entry

# Replaces the retrieval of mail from a POP server. This will take you to the bottom of
# the page, just like it does in vim
bind index G last-entry
```

## Flags

When viewing messages in the index menu, you will see various flags such as `N` which mean
the messages is new and `D` which means that the message is to be deleted. This is a short
list of those flags.
