pop(s),smtp(s)

2014-11-02 Thread DaleKelly

I tried on the #mutt channel with no answer
I tried the suggestions on comp.mail.mutt group

I am trying to add secure pop and secure smtp in my 1.5.23 Muttrc file 
(I can't find my .muttrc file and I think I may have edited before)


here are the only lines I added to my Muttrc file that was there on 
installation:


set realname = dale
set from = d...@dalekelly.org
set use_from = no
set envelope_from =yes



smtps://[user[:password]@]smtpout.secureserver.net[:465]
pops://[user[:password]@]pop.secureserver.net[:995]

I read man mutt
I read the doc(s) in my mutt-1.5.23/doc folder

any assistance?

*Should* be ~/.muttrc but if that does not exist, mutt will default to

My openSUSE system does not have /etc/muttrc

probably:
 mailboxes smtps://[user[:password]@]smtpout.secureserver.net[:465]
 mailboxes  pops://[user[:password]@]pop.secureserver.net[:995]

can't gedit ~/.muttrc (nothing there)
no /muttrc folder in /etc

tried putting the mailboxes edit in from of my smtps and pops lines 
but still I get no email where I send it, no error message I can see


where are error messages?

I looked a little at configuring debug, but I don't know ...

trying to get a smaller memory footprint than my GUI email/news

Thanks John, I have been working off my Muttrc file, I can't find my 
.muttrc file (might have edited it before, can't remember now)


tried your suggestion for smtp_url, didn't work

I install 1.5.23 with pop and IMAP enabled, I didn't see an enable for 
smtp in the README or INSTALL file


also reinstalled a couple times

My err, it is not /etc/muttrc, but /etc/Muttrc.  And case is important
in linux.  You more than likely do not have ~/.muttrc unless you copied it
there or constructed it from scratch.

Copy /etc/Muttrc to ~/.muttrc
change permissions to your user and users
then edit it to suit.

google for muttrc and use the examples to make your ~/.muttrc suit your
particular preferences.  There are *many* samples but take the time to
understand what you do.

The mutt man pages are quite good.  Pay particular attention to:
  man muttrc
