I am definitely in that case. Thanks for having raised the point, because it was obvious to me but, fortunately for everybody, not everybody is living in my head. As I see it, the SMTP configuration to use is fully determined by the from address of the mail to be sent. > If, instead, you want to be able to choose, per outgoing *email* (rather > than per *email address* of yours), which smarthost to use, then I think > you would have to either: > > - write a wrapper for msmtp-queue to give you an interactive menu for > choosing which smarthost to use for each outgoing email you send, or > > - rewrite your installed msmtp-queue script to give you such a menu. Again, as I see it, there shouldn't be any need for interactivity. For each outoging mail, pick up the right SMTP config based on who (which address) is sending (From header). As simple as that, I think. And, thanks a lot for the idea of installing msmtp manally rather than through the package manager. It should be possible, I think, to handle it with the package manager, because manually installing is a pain, but as long as it's not, that sounds like a good idea. Once I'll have everything set-up, if I manage to, I'll report here, either in this thread, or in a dedicated one. Cheers, Sébastien.
