Comment (by yoshiki):
@barsnick thanks for the suggestion. I did this, and this time I got the
expected behavior i.e. sendmail was at first set to the default value
`/usr/sbin/sendmail -oem` and was able to send email, after changing to
`/foo/bar/baz`, I got the following error:
{{{
Error sending message, child exited 127 (Exec error.).
}}}
Which makes sense because `/foo/bar/baz` doesn't exist. This leads me to
believe that something in my original `.muttrc` is preventing me from
successfully changing the way email is sent.
I've tested by setting sendmail to something different and opening mutt,
after doing `:set sendmail` I get the expected path but I am able to send
email regardless of the fact that the path I'm setting doesn't exist i.e.
the variable is changed but the email seems to be sent out regardless of
what the value of this variable is.
If it's of any help I'm only using an account (gmail with IMAP/SMTP).
And the following is a link to my .muttrc:
