Re: Mutt stopped sending emails

Sorry, kind of new with Mutt, I got is working and didn't really explore
much further.  What is MTA?  When I run mutt -version, this is the
output I get:

MTA = Mail Transfer Agent. It's the program that actually moves mail between one computer and another.
My /c/cygwin/var/log directory doesn't have a mail.log file.   My
.muttrc file is as follows:
[...]>
set sendmail = "/usr/sbin/ssmtp.exe"

The 'set sendmail' config option tells mutt which MTA to use to send mail. It's trying to talk to a program called ssmtp.exe . Is that program there? Is it exactly where .muttrc says it is?

Look at ssmtp's config file and see if it's logging somewhere.
