mutt + msmtp + From header
Hello
I an a dialup user so I use msmtp for mail delivering.
msmtp want me to put "from me@xxxxxxxxx" in its configuration file.
I have multiple email adresses, each has it's own entry in msmtprc, and I set
up a keybindig to change MDA:
macro generic "<esc>1" ":set sendmail=\"/usr/local/bin/msmtp -a acc1\""
macro generic "<esc>2" ":set sendmail=\"/usr/local/bin/msmtp -a acc2\""
macro generic "<esc>3" ":set sendmail=\"/usr/local/bin/msmtp -a acc2\""
So putting nothing about From: field in muttrc causing field to become like
me@mydomain, for example, postfix@xxxxxxxxxxx (you can see it in ths message :)
And changing MDA (using macro above) changes from: field to me@domain1,
me@domain2, etc, following the msmtprc account entry.
But i WANT "From:" to be "My name" <me@xxxxxxxxx>, where <me@xxxxxxxxx> is
dynamicaly choosen according to msmtprc entry.
adding my_hdr From: "The me myself" <me@mydomain> doesn't help because it
causes me to have similar <me@mydomain> in from: field for each account entry,
and original from: (from msmtprc) puts to return-path:
So, would anybody mind to say how make this with msmtp or maybe another
lightweight mail delivery agent.
Thanks a lot.
