On Sunday, December 18 at 10:16 PM, quoth Louis-David Mitterrand:
I tried setting sendmail="/bin/cat > /dev/null" but get this error:
Error sending message, child exited 1 ().
cat: invalid option -- B
Try `cat --help' for more information.
Is there another way of disabling "sendmail"?
Is there a catch or better way in what I am trying to do?
The catch is that mutt appends arguments to the string you specify in $sendmail. One way to do it is like so:
set sendmail="/bin/echo >/dev/null"But I haven't tested that. If mutt complains or seems to freeze while sending (entirely possible) you may want to write a small shell script, like so (named "~/.nullmail.sh"):
#!/bin/sh /bin/cat - >/dev/null And then: set sendmail="~/.nullmail.sh" That way it ignores whatever arguments mutt appends to it. But the obvious to me would be: set sendmail="" Does that not work? ~Kyle --Scientists have shown that the moon is moving away at a tiny, although measurable distance from earth every year. If you do the math, you can calculate that 65 million years ago, the moon was orbiting at a distance of about 35 feet from the earth's surface. This would explain the death of the dinosaurs . . . the tallest ones, anyway.
