I'll give it a shot, but as I understand it, according to RFC 2554, any
MTA that receives an authenticated email will forward that authentication. So,
is there a way to get Mutt to send an authenticated email to my local server?
I found a page on doing this with Exim as well, but I'm wondering if I can
get the client to do it.
