It would actually be nice if it did speak SMTP (+auth) sometimes.
Every now and then I find myself sitting on a box at a customer or
similar for some time, behind a firewall, with no ssh.
Bummer.
Ah, but mutt is installed.
How nice if I could do my mail. I got [S]IMAP for incoming,
but outgoing often gets munged or refused when I try to
use my "home" address with the local SMTP system.
Too bad I cannot just post my mail on my "home" box
using SMTP +auth...
/magnus
PS: an idea that I have been thinking of for the same "problem":
what about storing an address book in an
IMAP (or local) folder for easy access from anywhere?
The From: field could be the email, the Subject: the name,
and all the user data in the form of a vcard or similar
could be in the body.
Anyone find this interesting?
