 Possibly two things wrong: 
 
   1. Is sendmail set up to allow messages to go to/from root?

I dont know?

 
   2. I can't find an address for jerryvb.vei.net, although that
  might just be my setup.

I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about here.
Thanks for trying, I'm a frustrated mutt newbie. I'm giving up on mutt/sendmail.

Thanks anyway,

 this depends on your operating system.  sounds from your original
 message like you're using linux; most likely your logs will be in
 /var/log - the mail stuff will possibly be in your system log (usually
 'messages', 'all.log', or 'syslog' or something like that), and will
 most likely also be in a separate log file... most systems call it
 'mail.log' or 'maillog' or something like that.
 
 you might try something like the following.  the '^D' represents you
 typing 'control-d', and then you should see output like the output that
 follows.  replace the from and to addresses with your from address, and
 an outside email account. then you can watch and see the SMTP
 transaction in real time.

 This seems like a disagreement between what happens and what mutt
 expects to happen. You're authenticating using CRAM-MD5, and the POP
 server is validating the authentication. Then mutt thinks that is
 rejected it, so it tries other authentications, which the server does
 reject, since it's not expecting an authentication anymore.
 
 In other words, this looks like a mutt bug.
 
 You might try setting $pop_authenticators to work around this. The goal
 would be not to try authenticating with MD5 -- for example:
 
   set pop_authenticators=apop:user

I finally got around to trying this. IT WORKED! THANK YOU! At least now I can
download all of my mail with Mutt.

Thanks

I understand that Mutt reads the From line to organize messages. Why is my From
lines so far down in the messages? All of them are the same. Do I need to set
some command in fetchmail, or procmail, or sendmail, or Mutt?

 Are you filtering the mail through a pipe, or delivering directly to a
 mailbox?  Try removing the file completely (or making it 0 length).
 Procmail won't add the From_ line if it doesn't already exist, so it
 might be that you somehow saved a message to it without the from_ line.

  The problem is, every time I start up Mutt it says: Mutt:-(no mailbox)
 
 No such file or directory
  
  I have downloaded my mail with fetchmail into my suse-linux box. How do I

  Thanks for advice,

 The 'USER: unknown' bit makes me think you should try just:
 
 set pop_user = jerryvb

I tried this: set pop_user = jerryvb ; got the same error message.

Am I using Mutt correctly?
1. I open up a xterm window, using KDE 2.2.2 on SuSE 7.3.
2. At command prompt I type mutt, press Enter. Mutt opens up, no errors.
3. I press Shift+G
4. Mutt goes through several attempts to login to my mail server before it
finally stops and reports the error message above.

I'm brand new to Mutt, so any advice is welcome.

Thanks

 
 Otherwise the POP-server thinks you're trying to log in as
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]@pop3.ispwest.com.
 
 Mind you, I'm just guessing here... Anyway, hope this helps.

Well, I thought Mutt was a terminal based email client that could as much or
more than other email clients. So, I was hoping that I could just download all
messages into my mailbox and the headers would be displayed in the index, sort
of just like all others, i.e. Sylpheed. I thought Mutt was a downloader/reader
all in one? Am I wrong?

 Well, I don't use POP myself, so I haven't tried mutt's
 pop-functionalities. However, I'm sure others can be of assistance
 with this.
 
 If what you're trying to do is simply to fetch all messages from the
 POP-server to a local mailbox, though, I'd suggest using something like
 Fetchmail (http://tuxedo.org/~esr/fetchmail/), as indeed The
 Friendly Manual suggests.

So what's wrong with my .muttrc file? How do I get this puppy working?

# POP #
set pop_user = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
set pop_pass = password
set pop_delete = no
set pop_host = pop3.ispwest.com
#set pop_port = 110
#set pop_last = no

Thanks

 No, you're quite correct. Some people just prefer to use external
 programs to do the same thing. Since there's something apparently
 going wrong with mutt's built-in support, they're offering alternative
 approaches.

 Your .muttrc file looks fine. It sounds like something wrong in the
 interaction between mutt and your POP server, as someone posted
 previously. But I don't know what. Debugging output might help -- run
 mutt with the -d3 option. Make sure it doesn't contain your password,
 and send that to the list.

SMTP Authorization

2002-02-22 Thread Jerry Van Brimmer

Newbie to Mutt here. I'm just getting started, and I'm trying to get a working
rc file set up. I think I have all the basics except that my ISP requires me to
login with username and password to read my mail. I can't get Mutt to login.
Here's a copy of my POP section:

# POP #
set pop_user = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
set pop_pass = password
set pop_delete = no
set pop_host = pop3.ispwest.com
#set pop_port = 110
#set pop_last = no


Every time I try to read my mail Mutt says that login failed:

Login failed. USER: unknown or invalid command in this state [USER]

What do I have to set to get this to work?

Thanks
