if your mail server supports and authentication method that can be performed via SASL, then you can manage to not input a password. I personally run a Kerberos realm and use Postfix for my MTA, which supports Kerberos via GSSAPI. msmtp has support for GSSAPI via libgsasl. stick it all together and I get secure authentication without the need of placing my password in my .mstmprc file once I have authenticated to my KDC. later. ryanc -- ============================================================== ryan corder <ryanc at silverorb dot net> GnuPG key: http://silverorb.net/~ryanc/stuff/ryanc.asc "There is a multi-legged creature crawling on your shoulder." -- Spock, "A Taste of Armageddon", stardate 3193.9 ==============================================================
