You can ask in #mutt on freenode or try to google for mutt smtp. There are many ways to configure mutt to work with multiple pop and/ or imap accounts. There are also sample configs (.muttrc files) on the mutt wiki. Actually you should google before you ask for help in #mutt because they'll just tell you "check the wiki" ;) FWIW, I use msmtp to handle the sending of mail, it's a very small smtp server that only functions as a forwarder to external smtp servers (like your ISP's for example). There are also available docs for using msmtp with mutt, including how to set up .msmtprc and .muttrc. One last note, if you want to read & send your gmail with mutt/ fetchmail/msmtp you need either mutt-ng or the latest snapshot of mutt (took me a lot of searching to figure that out) Good luck :) Mike PS http://www.mutt.org PPS http://wiki.mutt.org
