hmm. I've installed ssmtp from cygwin now, configured it and
succeed in doing:
# echo fred | ssmtp some@address
ssmtp is not running as daemon. Now I've configured mutt with
sendmail="ssmtp"
but I still get the message
Error sending message, child exited 127 (Exec error.).
To summarize: I can send mails with ssmtp from command line
but not from mutt.
