Maybe this is a simple misunderstanding: The brackets in "smtp[s]://" mean that the (second) "s" is optional, i.e. you should use either "smtps://" or "smtp://", depending on whether you use smtp over ssl (port 465) or plain smtp (port 25). For the smarthost of an ISP which you contact from "outside" it will almost certainly be smtps (unless your ISP has really weird ideas about security). Judging from your version of iceape you seem to be running Lenny or even Sid, so your Mutt should support smtp_url. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
