I do use exim and experience all of that. :) > It does require config outside your homedir, but on the other hand your > machine's mail system is then useful. > > Can you outline what kind of criteria you would want to use in your hooks? That's the point. I don't want personal configuration outside of my $HOME (such as SMTP password). Depending of the recipient or the folder I'm in, I want to set which SMTP server, password, $from to use. This can be done easily by using mutt's SMTP capabilities and dynamically changing $smtp_url, but I would prefer using different $sendmail. What I need is an external program to get the message to deliver, with queue management (that's tricky), and every configuration and temporary files within my $HOME. Best of 2 worlds. :) -- Gabriel
