Mutt Mail

On my ever Increasing Journey into text-only Linux Terminal Applications, finally conquered Mutt Mail. I had tried it in the past but opted for Alpine, then decided Alpine was rather lamp and went back to normal Gmail. Recently got my own Private email set up when switching to a New Host and decided to check it from Command line. Learned Fetchmail protocol. Then focused on truly configuring Mutt Mail. These two sites helped:

Gentoo Mail Instructional
SSMPT Mail Sending

And so, after some frustration with Mutt not asking for Password during Mailsending process (you have to either set up mutt to ask for Pass when starting or actually use Fetchmail while in Mutt, because the act of Fetching mail requests a password. I dont know why I doesnt ask for a password when actually sending mail: instead it actually refuses to send the mail and gives a 505 error without explanation!).

Well, on the road to honing my command line apps, I used CMUS as a Music player for a while, but didnt like it. Sort of sketchy. Finally configured instead MOC music player. Much more like Midnight-Commander, the file manager I use, and also nice is the playlist is broken into the right screen while file tree is on left, so you can tab back and forth like Midnight Commander, and have radio stations in the playlist saved for easy perusal. Still playing T2T with TINTIN the MUD client as well. Getting closer to the total text-only computer usage. Its less Bourgoise I think to use text-only apps. Its sort of rugged. For some reason whenever it begins to get colder in the Fall I start trying to revert to text only applications!
