I would like for mutt to queue mail and then have the mail sent later - not postponed. For instance, if am upgrading or installing packages with apt-get then try to send a message with mutt, it hangs for a few seconds because my network connection is slowed by the packages being downloaded. How do I que mail and have all queued mail sent periodically using mutt and postfix? I understand that Qmail has the ability to monitor a specified folder for outgoing mail, but I am using the default postfix MDA. This applies to any mua, not just mutt. I would be interested how other users have their mail setup, in particular users using postfix and mutt. If one could get mutt to store the message in an outgoing folder would be later sent automatically, it would be much nicer than having to wait for postfix or sendmail for that matter to accept or send the message. In otherwords, I want it to be instant when hit I y in mutt but notify me if it wasn't sent properly for xyz reason! jay
