e-mail program

[Roy Nickelson]

Hi
is mutt the best program to use for e-mail?  Where do you configure the
settings such as incomming and outgoing server username and password.

Also I am willing to try other e-mail clients.

your mail client is a personal preference. I see a lot of new users 
(especially ones who have used internet access through a unix shell 
which most likely used it) use pine. I started out using it but ended 
up switching to mutt. pine isn't as complex as mutt and slightly 
easier to configure. however it lacks some features such as native pgp 
support and some people won't use it since it's license is broken. If 
you don't have a problem editing a configuration file then mutt is a

You don't configurte outgoing smtp in mutt and you're advised not to
configure pop3 stuff in mutt either according to the docs. I personally
prefer nmh but then there are  a lot of Linux email clients so try
10 or 20 and pick one.

Re: e-mail program

[Roy Nickelson]

hi,
it may help to know I am trying to access a standard pop3 account.  I can
edit config files fine but I looked at the sample for  mutt and didn't see
the settings I was looking for.

Mutt is IMHO the best mail user agent available for use on the console,
but that is a *very* subjective question. Mutt is pretty difficult to
configure to take advantage of its more advanced features, but once you
get it working it is very nice.

You don't put your smtp and pop3 server stuff in your .muttrc (mutt's
configuration file). You need to sett up something like fetchmail to get
your messages off your pop server and set up some kind of mail transfer
agent to handle sending mail from mutt. There are many options for MTA's
including sendmail, exim, postfix, Qmail, ETC. Etc. ETC. There are also
programs designed to be much simpler than a full blown MTA which just
send mail to your smtp server. Some of these are ssmtp, nullmailer, and
bsmtp. I don't use one of these, but i am sure someone on this list does
and could help you with them.

The mutt manual, located on your system at
/usr/share/doc/mutt/manual.txt, is a very good reference for all things
mutt and can provide you with hours of oh so fun reading.

> Also I am willing to try other e-mail clients.

NOOO! Butt seriously if you just want something to work out of the box
more or less then you probably want to try pine. It is not as
configureable as mutt, but it does get the job done. If you're an emacs
or emacspeak user then you may want to check out gnus which I have heard
a lot about, but I don't like emacs so... As others have said try
various things and you will find what you prefer and then you will be
telling people on mailing lists that it is the best. *chuckle* Have a
nice day and happy hunting for your mail program.

I use mutt and fetchmail, but because I could never get my head around
the sendmail configuration process I use exim instead.

I understand the feeling.

Pine also kind of expects a sendmail-like program for sending mail just
by sending it to the local host. There is an option on the configuration
screen that lets you set an smtp server to use. I don't know if the same
is true for the pop server for recieving mail. I think you should at
least use fetchmail even if pine can send properly. I don't recall your
distro, but I am sure it is there as a package. Your fetchmail
configuration file should look something like the following.

# to have fetchmail act as a daemon polling the server every 5 minutes
set daemon 300
poll some.pop.server with proto pop3
user your-user-name
pass "your-password"

With fetchmail installed and this in a file called .fetchmailrc in your
home directory you should be able to receive mail.

Mutt can fetch the emails from the pop3 server automatically. You only need
to set up some mail transfer agent for the outgoing email.

The relevant options for the incomming mail in your .muttrc are:

set pop_host=pop3.volny.cz
set pop_user=hanke
set pop_pass=your_password
# Delete emails from server after fetching them
set pop_delete=yes

Then try shift-G in Mutt.

Have a nice day,

Good point, sorry I forgot about that. I don't like it much though
because i have several pop accounts I need to receive mail from. If you
only have one account then it does simplify things a bit.

Hi.  You usually use fetchmail to get mail from the pop3 account and
what ever MTA you have installed to send out mail.

Hope this helps.

Re: e-mail program

[Shaun Oliver]

I use fetchmail and that hands the mail off to exim which delivers it 
locally to me and I have exim employing the use of clamav for scanning 
my mail for viri.
anyone that thinks they won't get a virus sent to them is folling 
themselves and I'm of the oppinion as well,
if I catch it I have a directive that allows me never to see the emails.
not only that I filter my email through spamassassin as well.
you can never have too much security I believe even if it's over kill.

Your setup is fine but use something other than sendmail if possible. I am 
probably going to open up a can of worms here, but sendmail is perhaps the 
most insecure program ever developed for the Unix like operating system. use 
something like postfix, exim, qmail, or courier.

pine is a lot easier to configure then mutt. and It's also a 
newsreader which is the only reason I keep it around.

ELF is the first rock group that Ronnie James Dio performed with back in 
the early 1970's.  In constrast, a.out is a misspelling	 of the French word 
for the month of August.  What the two have in common is beyond me, but 
Linux users seem to use the two words together.

Re: e-mail program

[Erik Heil]

Well for news reading, there's trn and slrn just to name a few.  I
personally don't like slrn, rather I prefer trn.  You can just build it from
source, you know, do the standard ./Configure, make, make install.  It has a
nnice interface and a hell of a lot of options.

I use mutt for my mua and exim for my mta.  A very good combination if I do say so and I don't care about any can of worms 
opened.  *smile*.  I used to use sendmail but found it was more trouble than it was worth.  Postfix is also a good one but 
different in its own way.

Cheers.

I've found courier to be quite a nice package. It's easy to configure 
and has a nice web-based admin and webmail program.
