I'm also sending to mutt-users, lets keep public discussions public. I have replaced the name of the server with $HOST and the username with $USER. The script needs ssh-agent authentication, since there is no terminal to ask for passwords on (maybe something could be cooked up with a graphical password prompter, please share if you make such a script). The script defaults to using system sendmail, since I also use this mutt configuration on boxes with sendmail installed (and I'm too lazy to maintain two configs). /dossen
#!/usr/bin/env bash
if [ -x /usr/sbin/sendmail ]; then
/usr/sbin/sendmail "$@"
elif [ -x /usr/lib/sendmail ]; then
/usr/lib/sendmail "$@"
else
if ssh-add -l >/dev/null; then
ssh -q $USER@$HOST /usr/sbin/sendmail "$@"
else
echo "Agent authentication not available." >&2
exit 1
