Re: Getting Mutt to send with Postfix

Thanks Steven:

 I will put those in. Also I get this error message in /var/log/maillog
(this is from tail):

Apr  1 00:28:36 notebook postfix/smtp[361]: connect to 
gateway1.att.net[204.127.134.23]: Connection timed out (port 25)

to gateway2.att.net[12.102.240.23]: Connec
tion timed out)


 I did test my test Postfix by sending a message manually:

notebook: {2} telnet localhost smtp

telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.

 That seemes to work OK. Any ideas on what I have miss configured? 
 This is on NetBSD BTW. Pine works fine but uses AT&T's SMTP for sending
mail. Both Pine and Mutt read mail just fine. Any idea what I am doing
wrong?

I don't have anything like that in my muttrc.

You do need to have something like this:

  my_hdr From: Your Name <your@address>
  set envelope_from=yes
