I'm persuaded by Curt and what you write to believe that your smtp transport is provided by mutt and not exim. Furthermore, you say that your desktop and myownsite.me have identical mutts and mutt configs. Wouldn't this imply the problem on the desktop lies outside mutt and in some other machine configuration? There is probably a good reason for you to use mutt's native smtp support but you could consider using exim to sidestep the issue. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
