I have 2 machines.
My WinXp machine is where I am currently running Outlook and responding
to this mailing list.
I also have a RH9 Linux machine where I am setting Mutt up.

SSMTP works for work/personal email, and the other mailling lists I am
on (ie vim@xxxxxxx, ...).
So I can send/post emails to everything except the Mutt mailing list
from this Linux machine.
