Mutt can only read email's from my gmail account, but no emails can be send through gmail to the Internet. I need some guide for Mutt , don't know how to configure it , for sending emails via my gmail account. I tried many muttrc conf files from the Internet and even tried to configure my own muttrc file , but still no luck. My windows xp box ( Outlook Express ) is configured and works with gmail account , but I would like to explore the power of Linux.

I am trying to set up Mutt to use my Gmail account. I've followed this tutorial, and I've been able to use IMAP to download and view my messages, however, when I try to send a message I get a error message, "No authenticators available". I've tried using 587 and 465 for the smtp port. 465 results in Mutt freezing and only being closed with kill. Does anyone have any idea? Anyone currently using Mutt with Gmail without the issue's I'm experiencing?
Here is my .muttrc:
set from = "dagoss@gmail.com"
set realname = "David"
set imap_user = "dagoss@gmail.com"
set imap_pass = "mypassword"
set folder = "imaps://imap.gmail.com:993"
code....

I'm trying to set up my postfix server to relay mail (via a php cms) using Gmail's smtp on my account, but for some reason, Gmail returns an error code that StartTLS must be sent first, my postfix main.cnf file can be found at pastebin, because of this forum's text length I cannot paste my postfix main.cnf file as can be seen I have everything set and configured for Gmail, but postfix (for some unseen reason) can not send StartTLS. [URL].

It seems my sendmail (running in slackware 13.0) cannot send out emails correctly. I guess I need to tell it what is the smtp server to use. And, I heard, gmail's smtp server is available to use for this purpose. How to configure my sendmail this way?

mutt-1.5.16-36 on opensuse 10.3 lacks SMTP support as shown in mutt -v ("-USE_SMTP"). Does anyone know which version of mutt would have it for opensuse 10.3 and where can I download it from? I don't want to compile from source or use an external program.

when a new email arrives on my gmail account, i want to be labelled (=tagged), letting an external bash script read the message and choose the right label.
i.e.:
from: ebay
to: me
dear matteo, congratulations! BILL_GATES has just bought one of your items! regards, mr. ebay i can easily write a script to calculate the right label (BILL_GATES) but how can i create it (if not already existing) and apply it to the processed message?
it took me 2 minutes to find a guide on how to configure mutt to view my gmail account, but i can't go any further... mutt has a kind of patch or extension to manage labels (view, edit, apply, etc), but i can't figure out how i could make it an automatic procedure... fetchmail + procmail seems to be the best solution, but (before spending a night with any effort)

I run a 6.06.2 Dapper server for a not-for-profit, and have had a very simple email set-up working for a couple of years. Users have their email address set up on the server, and use a gmail account as webmail access/storage. Emails are downloaded via POP to users gmail accounts, and are sent out from gmail via SMTP to the server. Like I said, this has worked fine for ages, but in the last couple of days its all gone wrong.
The SMTP log I get for an email I tried to send from gmail is as follows:

We have installed a proxy on desktop machine so that we can connect to internet through proxy. So we are not able to telnet to smtp.gmail.com 587 from laptops of internal LAN laptop installed with ubuntu and fedora.
At the same time we are able to ping smtp.gmail.com from the desktop machine which is exposed to internet.
I want to automate email through shell script using smtp.gmail.com.

Evolution works fine for receiving mail, but I cant send anything.When i hit "send/receive" itll receive but ask for smtp password every single time. My understanding is that the password is your email password, but it wont accept it.

I'm trying to configure postfix on an ubuntu virtual machine to use gmail as a relay client. For the past two days I have been in and out of the logs, changing parameters and blindly following tutorials but I can't get anything to work properly. So far I've narrowed my problems down to tls connection establishing and a failure to authenticate, judging by the local emails I've received from "The mail system".

I use evolution 2.26.1 on my jaunty machine. I have a couple of gmail accounts, and use pop3 to have that mail sent to evolution on my computer. All was fine until a few days ago. Then I noticed that I was no longer getting mail from my freecycle account sent to my machine. I went to the gmail web interface and saw that freecycle mail is still being sent to me. But gmail isn't passing it along to my evolution. The odd thing is, other mail from that gmail account *is* reaching evolution okay.

I'm am successfully adding my gmail account to both empathy and pidgin (it shows up in green that i'm 'available' on my computer). However, I am unable to send or receive any messages. On empathy it just says there was a network error - unknown, and pidgin say there is an xmpp message error code 404.
I've been trying for months to get IM working with my gmail account.

On windows I use my Gmail account to sign into Windows Live Messenger. So my Gmail account is my windows live ID.
But Empaty on Ubuntu 10.04 wont let me log in. Is there any setting that should be changed or is a whole different client needed to make it work?

I need to ask you how canIi make some fetchmail jobs to download mails from my gmail account into my mail account in my own server? My server is :
Linux Centos 5.4
Postfix Mail Server
I make a file named .fetchmailrc in my home directory and set its permissions to 755and the content of this file is:
set postmaster "postmaster"
set bouncemail
set no spambounce
set properties ""
poll imap.googlemail.com:993 protocol imap username "username@gmail.com" password "password"
I think something is not completed, I need to make that fetch to a specific user only, not all users.

I use kmail for fetching and sending mails from my gmail account. The inbox stuffs are saved in ~/.kde/share/ apps/kmail/mail/inbox . It is not saved in encrypted form. One can open it with any editor. Is there a way to make kmail save those fetched messages in encrypted form and when I open the kmail it will show me those mails in decrypted form?
