MailMate KeyBindings

My personal MailMate keybindings file

Focus

This keybindings file is focused on keyboard email handling so it has some easy keystrokes for moving between messages in a single mailbox and also moving between mailboxes. It has a mix of typical vi keybindings (j/k for message navigation) and some other command line tools mixed in, like you can do g or G to go to the top or bottom of a mailspool like in less.
