Greetings!
Can anybody tell me how to get mutt to send from one of my verizon.net e-mail accounts, instead of attempting to send from something that is my hostname with a spin on it? better yet, can you point me to decent documentation on doing it? I saw nothing in the mutt man page, last I looked. Thanks!

Here is what I use. I use an email sending program caled msmtp; very
useful, and doesn't require you to set up a mail transport agent. Also,
getmail instead of fetchmail - again forgoes the need for an MTA. in the
.muttrc, add something like:
my-hdr From: Your name <email@host.com>
I think it's in the configuration section in the manual, although the
text version of that is sort of hard to read with the backspace
characters. I forgot how to strip them out - col -b seemed to cause some
problems when I last tried.

I use msmtp. This is a small mail sending agent that I use because I
have no need for a large program like exim4 or postfix, as I do not
have a multi-user installation here. In the documentation for mutt,
and for msmtp, you will find the information you need to get the
combination of these programs together and working right.
I just change the frim line on the configuration of these programs,
and my hostname is not a factor. If you have any questions after
reading these man pages, just contact me and I will be more than glad
to help you get it going.
Glad to help.

Does msmtp do smtp authentication? I too would like to dump exim but don't want
to stop sending mail.

To add on to that, I assume msmtp takes care of local deliveries just
fine?

Msmtp does smtp auth, and does not do local delivery, as far as I know.
I suppose if you wanted local delivery, you could write a script to wrap
around msmtp and examine the message ; if it's local, put it in a
maildir or something - but I have no idea how that would be done.
I used msmtp, mutt and getmail for a year or so and it worked fine.
Fetchmail is too big and ugly, and apparently loses alot of mail.

Thanks for that info. Fetchmail loses mail? I've never had this problem. I
know that fetchmail will not retrieve a message if you've already read it. This
is different then the behavior of windows pop clients like outlook.

I haven't had fetchmail lose any of my mail either. And as for
re-reading mail, I believe you can use options to fetchmail still on the
server if it hasn't already been flushed from the server.
