Thread: email (msmtp) not working


problem: i'm not receiving emails sent using msmtp.

details: msmtp seems easy way have server send emails out. followed following tutorial:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1185134

, got to:
echo "this test e-mail server using msmtp!" | msmtp -d youremail@domain.com

executed without apparent errors, returning "mail accepted delivery" , "bizsmtp closing connection". i'm not getting emails.

did have change setting "auth off" because otherwise "the server not support authentication" , "could not send email".

ideas?

anyone understands how bottom line works? gpg thing looks might solution.
