I was confronted with the same problem back in 1998 and I used ssmtp. I 
think it was ssmtp, that was a long time ago. I set it up and continued 
to use Mutt (which is still my favorite MUA though I have to use OE and 
Thunderbird now) with no further problems. This is not a new issue, and 
it is certainly not unsurmountable.

I've never felt that way here. I do wish the thread would continue in a 
useful tone, as I may be experiencing the same issue as you. I will now 
with the next set of clients I configure.

Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a
logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos
for other non-international holidays, but nothing for
Veterans?

Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.
