# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line # up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' # on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must # make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':'. |-----------handy-ruler----------------------------------------------------------------| msmtp: Msmtp (An SMTP client) msmtp: msmtp: msmtp is an SMTP client that can be used as an "SMTP plugin" for Mutt msmtp: and probably other MUAs (mail user agents). It forwards mails to an SMTP server msmtp: (for example at a free mail provider) which does the delivery. msmtp: To use this program, create a configuration file with your mail account(s) msmtp: and tell your MUA to call msmtp instead of /usr/sbin/sendmail. msmtp: Features include: SMTP authentication methods PLAIN, LOGIN and CRAM-MD5, msmtp: TLS encrypted connections, IPv6 support, DSN (Delivery Status Notification) support, msmtp: SMTP pipelining support (allows faster transmissions), support for multiple accounts, msmtp: sendmail compatible exit codes (which most MUAs understand).
