I'm new to Mutt, and have found instructions for getting mail from a
POP3 account. Is it possible to send mail via a POP3 server?

Usually mutt is just used to read mail. You use a program like
fetchmail to download the mail from a POP3 or IMAP server into files
that mutt can read. When you send mail, mutt sends it to a server
running on the localhost. That server then sends your mail on its
merry way.

Hopefully this is a little enlightening.
