08.07 Can I use my mailer to send mail?
Date: Thu, 1 Dec 1994 00:00:00 -0800 Yes. See the variables mail-script, mailer, and mailer-pipe-input. The following show how you can have nn use elm and MH to deliver mail. Note that you are not placed "in" your mailer--the mailer is merely used to deliver a message that you've already completed. The original idea of using MH (namely, comp) to send mail from nn came from Jaap Vermeulen <mailto:jaap@sequent.com>, but he wouldn't recognize what I did to it. I also used suggestions from John Romine <mailto:jromine@ics.uci.edu>, Tom McCain <mailto:tom@dynamo.ecn.purdue.edu>, and Brian Exelbierd <mailto:bex@usa.net>. Add set mail-script nn-use-mh to your init file. See Appendix "nn-use-mh" for the script. In addition, you can contact Ray Davis <mailto:rdavis@convex.com> for some scripts that sort of turn nn into a MH front end by providing macros to save, delete and refile articles in MH folders. To use elm to send the messages, add the following to ~/.nn/init: set mailer nn_elm unset mailer-pipe-input and see Appendix "nn_elm" for the script.
