Yes, you should be able to use Gmail's IMAPS and SMTPS servers within Mutt. You might need a local MTA such as sendmail or "msmtp" that can talk to Google's SMTP server. You may also need the standard suite of CA certificates though you should likely already have that installed. If not, something like sudo apt-get install msmtp openssl ca-certificates Making the following assumptions: - you correctly have the above installed - your certs end up in /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt - your username is "examplejohn@xxxxxxxxx" - your password is "MySecretPassword" you can configure it to send mail using gmail with the following in your ~/.msmtprc file: account default host smtp.gmail.com port 587 from "examplejohn@xxxxxxxxx" tls on tls_starttls on tls_trust_file /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt auth on user "examplejohn" password "MySecretPassword" logfile ~/.msmtp.log Then your ~/.muttrc you want something like set imap_user = 'examplejohn@xxxxxxxxx' set imap_pass = 'MySecretPasswordd' set spoolfile = imaps://imap.gmail.com/INBOX set folder = imaps://imap.gmail.com/ set record="" #set record="imaps://imap.gmail.com/[Gmail]/Sent Mail" set postponed="imaps://imap.gmail.com/[Gmail]/Drafts" and you may want bind editor <space> noop if your Gmail folders have spaces in their names. There's a bit more on the Mutt wiki: https://dev.mutt.org/trac/wiki/UseCases/Gmail but the page was being unresponsive when I tested it just now. -tim _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
