OT, but I set up an MTA (postfix, in my case) as a relay host. So,
whether using Icedove, Kmail, Mutt, whatever, I always send email to
my computer (haggis). Postfix then turns around and relays it to my
ISP's smtp server. This, along with fetchmail+IMAP gives me total
MUA independence. (Might not work with multiple profiles, but I
haven't tried to do any fancy Postfix configuration.)
As you can see from the headers of this email which I sent out a few
days ago, Icedove sent it to Postfix at 23:45:26 UTC, Postfix
received it 5 seconds later, and (anomalously) my ISP received it at
23:44:26, a minute before I sent it.
