No need to use external "esmtp" or "Exim" mail server with Mutt. It

directly to your ISP host.

That is the way I use it with my Gmail account.


I am not sure if my mutt version came compiled with  "+USE_SMTP" : how
shall I make sure of this ?

"mutt -v" will tell.
All right, "mutt -v" confirmed that my "mutt" v1.5.18 has indeed been compiled with "+USE_SMTP". "mutt -v" also says :

SENDMAIL="/usr/sbin/sendmail"

Since I thought that sendmail was not installed in this system, I tried to call man pages :

man sendmail

and the reply was :

"EXIM4 (8)
................. like other MTAs, exim replaces Sendmail...
............................................................................................"

In any case, I still have no result in attempting to send mail from mutt with that config and those I have tried so far. |
