How to onfigure other mail than gmail in msmtprc

To configure a mail client other than Gmail in the msmtprc file, you'll need to specify the correct settings for your email provider. Here's a general outline of the steps:

1. Open the msmtprc file: You can find the msmtprc file in the following locations:
   • Windows 10/8: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\
   • Windows 7: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\
   • Linux: /etc/
2. Edit the msmtprc file: Use a text editor like Notepad (Windows) or nano (Linux) to open the msmtprc file.
3. Add the following lines: Replace <your_email_provider> with the name of your email provider (e.g., Outlook, Yahoo, AOL, etc.).

For example, if you're using Outlook, you would add the following lines:

account your_email_address
host outlook.office365.com
port 587
username your_email_address
password your_email_password
auth on

If you're using Yahoo, you would add the following lines:

account your_email_address
host smtp.mail.yahoo.com
port 587
username your_email_address
password your_email_password
auth on

If you're using AOL, you would add the following lines:

account your_email_address
host smtp.aol.com
port 587
username your_email_address
password your_email_password
auth on

4. Save the changes: Save the msmtprc file.
5. Restart your mail client: Restart your mail client (e.g., Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.) to apply the changes.

Here are some additional tips:

• Make sure to replace <your_email_provider> with the actual name of your email provider.
• Verify the correct port numbers for your email provider. Some providers may use different ports (e.g., 25, 465, or 993).
• If you're using a secure connection (SSL/TLS), you may need to specify the ssl or tls option. For example:

  account your_email_address
  host outlook.office365.com
  port 587
  username your_email_address
  password your_email_password
  auth on
  ssl on

• If you're experiencing issues with your mail client, you can try using the msmtp command-line tool to test your configuration. For example:

  msmtp -v -a your_email_address -f your_email_address -t "your_email_password"

  This will send a test email using the specified settings. If the test email fails, you may need to troubleshoot your configuration further.
