Yes, that's the way mutt works. mutt still uses the distinction between MUA (mail user agent, that is, mutt itself) and MTA (mail transfer agent, that is, something like sendmail, exim, and-so-on). > Maybe anyone in this list can point me a way to make mutt sending mail > with remote SMTP server? You need to install an MtA like sendmail, exim, postfix, or similar. You may, however, use a very simple one like ssmtp (it is available with cygwin). This might be your easiest solution.

Using mutt to sendmail via remote SMTP
I using thunderbird to send this mail, recently i found that I can run cygwin with my USB, so I wonder how to use cygwin MUA like mutt to sending mail via gmail. As far in my research mutt look for sendmail program in exim or other smtp program running in localhost to sending mail, and this is not suite to my purpose. Maybe anyone in this list can point me a way to make mutt sending mail with remote SMTP server? thank -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
