Description-en: light SMTP client with support for server profiles - with GNOME keyring support
msmtp is an SMTP client that can be used to send mails from Mutt and probably
other MUAs (mail user agents). It forwards mails to an SMTP server (for
example at a free mail provider), which takes care of the final delivery.
Using profiles, it can be easily configured to use different SMTP servers
with different configurations, which makes it ideal for mobile clients.
.
This package is compiled with GSASL and TLS/SSL support, and additionally with
GNOME keyring support.
