@jggimi

Thanks for the links.

Overall OpenSMTPD looks to parallel the OpenBSD philosophy.

I think I have most of it set up, there are some older howto's on the net that seem to use deprecated syntax.

Two questions remaining
1) In the muttrc you have to set the default mta which in the example muttrc was
Code:
set sendmail="/usr/lib/sendmail -oi -oem"
I'm guessing that I retain this line with the changes I made to the /etc/mail.conf wrapper script or would it be cleaner to go directly to /usr/sbin/smtpctl or would that mess up the rest of the /etc/mail.conf settings?
2) I pull mail to mobile computers and would like to not delete the emails on mail.earthlink.net (particularly while I'm fiddling with this). I read the smtpd.conf(5) and smtpd(8) man pages and did not see any settings to explicitly leave the messages on the server. In fetchmail there is an explicit setting.
