No, Gmail no longer allows Mutt to be used for it. Google considers it
to be a "less secure app." Hence, they do not allow Mutt to be used
with it. I have tried and have failed since Google made that change to
Gmail.

That is not accurate, Lester.
At the moment this answer is written there are currently TWO methods to use
mutt with Gmail.
First is using an "application specific password" and the second is using
the recently added "Oauth" support that is now provided in mutt.
Could someone point Lester to a tu
No, mutt can use Gmail because mutt has Oauth support built in. It's a bit
complicated but you can search for instructions. That's the preferred way
to use mutt with Gmail as the other method "app specific passwords" will
eventually be phased out.
Please do not write me again, write to the email l
Damn, I never thought getting help configuring Mutt for my AOL email
account would be such a big hassle. I used to use mutt for my Gmail
accounts, but Google, as you know, stopped allowing Gmail to be used
with Mutt. Configuring Mutt to be used with my Gmail accounts was as

When linux or unix software will produce errors in this case a command
like:
mutt 2>&1|tee mutt.log
will produce mutt.log where all output from the command including errors
will be captured.
If more than a single run is needed:
mutt 2>&1|tee -a mutt.log
will append output to mutt.log.
The 2>&1 redi

Hello Lester,
Making mutt work isn't just a matter of a configuration file, there are
other things like making directories which must be done.

I believe Storm Dragon's fleacollar supports AOL.

Use wget to download this.
Then chmod fleacollar.sh to be executable and run it and give all answers,
including the password
Does anyone, by any chance, happen to have a sample .muttrc file that I
could use for AOL email? And no, I do not want a conversation or a
