Until you can get an MTA to deliver mail to a smarthost authenticating via GSSAPI with the Kerberos credentials of the sending user, I'm going to keep using mutt's SMTP support. TTBOMK, no MTA in Debian supports outgoing GSSAPI authentication *at all*, let alone with the specific user credentials. Only a few MTAs support per-user configuration on any level at all. -- brian m. carlson / brian with sandals: Houston, Texas, US +1 832 623 2791 | http://www.crustytoothpaste.net/~bmc | My opinion only OpenPGP: RSA v4 4096b: 88AC E9B2 9196 305B A994 7552 F1BA 225C 0223 B187
