Hi, thanks for all useful hints (I got new hope).
What I did:
* installed ssmtp and mutt
* customized /etc/muttrc like Clayton told
* dialled in with pppd (www-browser worked)
* started mutt with: mutt -F /etc/muttrc
* --- no mails downloaded from ISP-POP - no messages from mutt --- ?
BTW:
* What did I wrong?
* My local Emailaddress is root@boneless - the Address the ISP knows is
[EMAIL PROTECTED] - do I have to make a "pipe" (like in fetchmail)?
* How do I "tell" mutt to communicate with the ISP-account)
(invoke the fetchmail function)?
* Is the "standard" mutt (debian package) not compiled with POP3-support?
* Is ssmtp to weak to support mutt this way?
Thanks
Dieter
