I've just gotten mutt to work on a new (backup) ISP.  (And at least until I
persuade the sysadmin to upgrade, it's mutt 0.95.7i).  It took me the
*longest* time to be able to send any mail.  Then I finally realized I had
to disable "dsn_notify" and "dsn_return" in my .muttrc in order for any
mail at all to be sent out.

I had them set at "dsn_notify=failure,delay" and "dsn_return=hdrs".  Now I
have to keep them commented-out.  Does this mean the ISP is using a version
of sendmail older than 8.8?  (I ask this because the mutt manpage mentions
Berkeley sendmail 8.8 in the section on dsn.)

This seems very messed-up.  No one uses mutt on that ISP, and I'd like to
be able to tell the sysadmin what to do to prevent this from happening
(because he's not going to know).

Can anyone offer tips?
