As pointed out already, mutt doesn't talk smtp. The two solutions to this are 1) have a proper MTA 2) MSTMP http://msmtp.sourceforge.net/ since 1 has been covered, 2 is ideal if you dont feel the need to have a mail server runnning all the time or doing anything more fancy than handling external mail. All msmtp does is read the mail that mutt pipes to it, connect to the stmp server, and send the mail. To set it up with mutt, read http://wiki.mutt.org/index.cgi?MuttGuide/Msmtp Pete -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
