sending mail hangs
hello :) I have been using mutt for a little while but I have always been using it on this freebsd box and everything works fine. I just tried to get mutt working on a linux box (gentoo), I copied my .muttrc over to this new box and the only thing that dosn't work is sending email, it just says 'Sending message...' untill I make it stop and never says that its sent. I have been looking around and seen a few email with people that have the same problem but there dosn't seem to be any solutions on them. Cheers, Matty.

It its worth the upgrade, in humble opinion :) > I'm using a mix of mutts! :-) I can certainly build a 1.5.x mutt on the system where I need this so that's not a problem, thanks for the information. I had a thorough read of the 1.5.x documentation at www.mutt.org and couldn't see anything about ^. As I said above can someone provide me with a quick example of a macro that does something like [re]moving a directory please. I assume it will use ! to run a command and provide the ^ plus some bits as parameters but playing on a 1.5.x mutt I couldn't fathom it out. -- Chris Green
