mutt ate my i key

I did a large upgrade tonight and noticed there was a mutt upgrade, no biggie really….Except my I have for years (incorrectly?) used the “i” key when reading a specific email to jump back to the list of emails, or from index to pager in mutt speak.

Instead of my pager of mails, I got “No news servers defined!” The fix is rather simple, in muttrc put

bind pager i exit

and you’re back to using the i key the wrong way again like me.

    “to jump back to the list of emails, or from index to pager in mutt speak.” <– did you mean "from pager to index" here?
