Hello, For some reason unknown, I had a problem with the .lock dir in the .msmtp.queue and as a result I couldn’t send email any more with mutt. I don’t know if that bug report belongs more to mutt or to msmtp… any feedback or ideas welcome. # Replicate the bug: Have a unusable .lock directory in your msmtp queue (I have no idea how I did that) Send an email with Mutt Get “Email sent” msmtpq is actually not handling the email at all, not adding it to the queue (msmtp-queue says there’s no email in the queue) and not sending it to msmtp # Expected behaviour: Have a unusable .lock directory in your msmtp queue (I have no idea how I did that) Send an email with Mutt Get an error feedback Suggest to delete the lockdir # Solution? In the msmtpq scripts README it suggests to have set sendmail_wait = -1 #send in the background Maybe this should be changed? More (uninteresting) context: https://hroy.eu/posts/msmtpq-lock/ Thanks,
