Possibly. Is it mutt that translates the %40 into an @ or is that 
something that the IMAP server is doing?

You can also usually specify it like so: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

virtual domains and IMAP

2007-01-22 Thread Travis H.
Hey folks, the other day I was troubleshooting someone's server
and had to specify the email address _and @domain_ as the
username.  Needless to say, the straightforward way ([EMAIL PROTECTED]@domain)
didn't work.  I found that you could use %40 for the first "@"
and that seemed to do the trick.

Is this worth putting in the manual?

If a reboot stopped your ability to send mail, but not to read it, then
it's very possible that the problem is your SMTP server, not mutt.
Check that sendmail (or postfix, or qmail, or whatever you use) is
running.

You can verify this with ps (is it running now) and chkconfig (does your
system run it on boot).

Spot _where_??? You didn't give anything to spot, like error-msgs
or log-files excerpts (_NO_ full logs, please!).
Please see http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Also see http://wiki.mutt.org/?DebugConfig for trouble- shooting
mutt and how to get more info.

Also have a look at your local sendmail log-files, somewhere in
/var/log/mail or similar, check /etc/syslog.conf for where it is
exactly.

> I have tried to send e-mail from a regular user as well as root.

No no no, never work as root, unless that's required.
 Mail does not. ;)

> Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

You must help us first to be able to help you (yourself).

Help please with mutt

2007-01-22 Thread David Hoover
I have a system running Red Hat Linux. We did a reboot on December 20, 2006.
Prior to the reboot, mutt was working great. After the reboot, I have no
e-mails going out using mutt. I have tried to manually send an e-mail using
mutt beside the automated script that had been working prior to the reboot.
My hope is that you might be able to spot what is missing to have cased mutt
to have stopped.

I have tried to send e-mail from a regular user as well as root.

The automated script is:

sh -c 'echo "Shipment for Waterloo test email" | mutt -s "Waterloo PackSlip"
-a 11-27-06638X.txt [EMAIL PROTECTED]'

The mutt -v shows:

I have searched the Web for references and have not found any that were able

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thank you.
