The problem I see there is that first-time installers then wouldn't have an
/etc/muttrc at all until they happened to stumble across the muttrc.default.
I could probably pretty easily set things up so that an /etc/muttrc.default
gets installed, and then have a post-install script copy it to /etc/muttrc
if and ony if it doesn't already exist.  How does the post-install script
functionality work?  Can you point me to some docs or other explanation?
