It doesn't even do that. Mutt reads mail (but it's better to use a helper app to get it) and then passes replies composed in an Editor (which is probably not mutt) to a local SMTP agent which then delivers mail, most likely via another server acting as an SMTP gateway. What Mutt really does is provide a user interface for a number of configurable tasks, which generally include moving and reading mail, but rarely truly sending mail. Mutt could be described as a highly configurable user interface with built in functions to help with reading, indexing, sorting and generally organising e-mail on a console. -- [Simon White. vim/mutt/Linux.
