Hello Sam, many thanks for your interesting response! Sam Kuper (2022/08/11 17:43 +0000): > Consider using msmtp for sending, and msmtp-queue for queueing: > > >https://lists.mutt.org/pipermail/mutt-users/Week-of-Mon-20210208/002485.html
My understanding is that, on one side, mutt would call msmtp-queue as a replacement for sendmail and that, on the other side, msmtp needs to somehow be called on a regular basis to try to send the messages that are in the queue, if network is available. Is this understanding correct? Also, given how important e-mail is, I am a bit worried about the transition: any advice on how to switch from exim4 to this new set-up as smoothly as possible and without risking to be unable to send e-mail for some time? I am considering trying on a different machine, or perhaps in a chroot or docker container, although even with these two last options I am scared because once in the past I deleted my whole home directory by removing a chroot in which that home directory was bind-mounted. Since then I have backups, but still... Best wishes, Sébastien.
