Sending your mail:

You have two options: one is to use the sendmail installed on your system, having configured it for offline mode (mail is queued locally, and sent only when your machine detects a network connection). Your second option is to use putmail.py-queue, a partner script to putmail. Putmail.py-queue stores outgoing mail in a folder, and then sends it to putmail one by one when you instruct it to dequeue. In that case, you would use set sendmail=''/usr/local/bin/putmail_enqueue.py'' in your .muttrc.

When you get a 'net connection, run putmail_dequeue.py to send out all the stored mail you've accumulated.
