Mutt *does* have minimal SMTP capability now, since about version 1.5.15 I think it is. On Ubuntu 8.10 (beta) I get version 1.5.18 of mutt so that can do SMTP itself.
On 8.04 it's 1.5.17 so I like this idea.
Any idea how I'd find out whether it has this capability or how to configure it?
Run "mutt -v | grep SMTP" from the command line, if you get a line with "+USE_SMTP" in it then you have built-in SMTP capability. I think you almost certainly have because the version in 8.10 has the capability.
For instructions on how to set it up go to the mutt web site:-
http://www.mutt.org/doc/devel/manual.html#smtp
It's fairly straightforward (but I'm a long time mutt user so maybe I have rose tinted spectacles). Any problems ask some more.
