Ok, I installed msmtp and after a bit of flailing about got it working. Part of the flailing included an error message from mail.eskimo.com that it didn't support authentication. So I suppose it's puking when mutt insists. msmtp has a way to turn that off; does mutt? If it's smtp_authenticators, what do I put there? -- Dave Williams d...@eskimo.com
