You don't need to jail postfix for your situation. Build Mutt with smtp support, and set smtp_server to localhost. Your SMTP processes will run in the global context, and mutt will only need a socket to that. * On 11 May 2014, Shawn Zaidermann wrote: > I understand. There is definitely always t

While I'm glad you've got your syntax working, it is often easier (and more flexible) to move tricky shell incantations off into a script. As an example, I run a specialish vim incantation as my mutt editor. My muttrc just says: set editor=muttedit and "muttedit" is a script in my bin dire
