I don't think mutt can do its own mail delivery. Apparently msmtp is designed precisely for this purpose. You can put an msmtp binary in your home directory and put something like this in .muttrc: set sendmail="/home/someone/bin/msmtp" you need to make a $HOME/.msmtprc file too, see the manpage and examples in /usr/share/doc/msmtp Sam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
