In Gentoo, after updating you may see the message "IMPORTANT: <number> config files in '/etc' need updating.". This script looks for all the files that need to be updated, then overwrite old config files with new ones. Useful when there are a lot of new c
#! /bin/sh
# Update: There is no point using this, we have `etc-update'

Settings for Mutt to test SES

Change the email address to the verified sender address. By default Mutt doesn't use the envelope address, resulting in the email getting rejected because of unverified address.

set from = 'Amazing Tester <tester@amazing.com>'
set smtp_pass = 'xxx'
set smtp_url = 'smtps://xxx@email-smtp.xxx.amazonaws.com'
set use_envelope_from = yes
