My ISP started requiring authentication for outgoing mail a couple of months ago, which pmail does not handle. BL3 Sylpheed needs BL3 libX11.
So I compiled msmtp for BL2.

http://keesan.freeshell.org/bl/msmtp-1.4.10-glibc225.tgz
Jan 2007. I omitted nls (German language version).

I included msmtp.1 msmtp.html msmtp.info, and Mutt-msmtp.txt, which explains how to set up with mutt. This did not work for me. Now instead of 'Child exited 127' I get 'Child exited 60 (Service unavailable)'. I made a /root/.msmtp and modified .muttrc as instructed, but may have misunderstood how to do this. Would someone else using mutt please try this? Or even try it with 'mail', or CLI sending from stdin. 60K file, libc ld-linux.

Do we really need tls/cert.pem to send mail? It is large.
If not, msmtp/libc5 could fit in the extra space of BL3.50-floppy.

I had mutt working as a mailer with links. Can sylpheed be used with links2 in X?
