You need to sett up something like fetchmail to get > your messages off your pop server Mutt can fetch the emails from the pop3 server automatically. You only need to set up some mail transfer agent for the outgoing email. The relevant options for the incomming mail in your .muttrc are: set pop_host=pop3.volny.cz set pop_user=hanke set pop_pass=your_password # Delete emails from server after fetching them set pop_delete=yes Then try shift-G in Mutt.
