**gabala** · October 13th, 2011

Thanks a lot worked for me.

Actually last night when I installed Mutt I was not sure if my installation was right. and I had no idea how to send email with it. but tonight when I was browsing and saw this command and I tested it I found my my configuration is working and was correct from last night.

It is good to add this to your post is will be very useful to send email from command line.:

Code:

echo "Hello my friend!"|mutt -s "Greetings" friend.of.jhon@gmail.com

Good to hear this guide has been useful to you

. I had actually suspected that this guide was slowly fading away...

I have found a partition for Oneiric Ocelot and made the few small changes needed to bring this guide up to speed with the latest Ubuntu release. I hope that this will tempt a few more bold users to enter the world of mutt!
