Re: [PLUG] Setting up Sendmail


Yeah I tried setting up mutt, but did not like its interface. I don't know where
to enter my smt server in mutt. The configuration is not as easy as PINE. I
read somewhere that I needed to play with .muttrc but I don't know where I can
find a sample.muttrc file.

Anyway, thanks for you help. I will use kevin mudrick's website to get the debs and install it. I hope that works.
