SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the msg2smtp command.

msg2smtp is a program that takes a mail message on STDIN and relays it to an SMTP server.

MUA (Mutt) --> msg2smtp.pl --> Anubis --> remote or local MTA

This can be used whenever you want to convert a mail message on STDIN and talk to an SMTP server as output. Just like sendmail do.

If you want to use this script with Mutt, add this to Mutt configuration file:

set sendmail="/PATHTO/msg2smtp.pl -h localhost"

If you run GNU Anubis on port 4000, you would put this line in your muttrc:

set sendmail="/PATHTO/msg2smtp.pl -h localhost -p 4000"
