Yeah, so the extension did work, fine. :message is just not yet
programmed, you have to use ctrl-v,ctrl-n for now to send a new message.
Use :visuage and :exusage for currently supported commands/mappings.

Installing your own xpi is not that easy, you need to make some symlinks
(there is a README file in src/ how to do that).
That should work, and then I am awaiting your patches for muttator :)
There really is a lot left to do, i know :)

If that doesn't work, try uninstalling muttator, and reinstall the .xpi
from the homepage.

PS: muttator is really pre-alpha. It does work for me, but a lot of
basic features are still missing (mainly editing mail with vim), so any
help would be really appreciated.
