I think maybe what you want is msmtp. It can coexist with exim4. It is similar in principle to the built-in SMTP capabilities of Icedove, for example. If you want to use mutt to send messages from multiple accounts, then I think msmtp is the way to go. Each user can have his own config, each with multiple accounts. -Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
