I use msmtp vs several email accounts (1 personal and 2 corporate). I used to have gmail account too but unsubscribed from google's, linkedin's etc services several years ago. I find msmtp easy to use, it detects which SMTP server to connect to / authenticate against by contents of From: header. My default From: is configured in .muttrc as xr...@yandex.ru, it's set to match To: when replying and it's also set in account_hook IIRC. IMO sendmail, exim, postfix and qmail all exist for "backbone" or corporate email infrastructure rather than for serving personal webmail boxes. > > "The iPad is a status symbol for yuppies.

I cannot do blind typing, transparent proxying, virtualization and cryptsetup on any tablet so they are all equally crippled for my job. -- WBR, xrgtn
