Subject: [sup-talk] Can't seem to send mail

Well, as far as I can tell, sup doesn't actually send mail itself, and can't.

As such, it uses sendmail by default. Therefore, if you want it to
send mail properly, you want to set up sendmail to send your mail.

If you're sending through something sane, it probably uses smtp.
Today, I installed msmtp and am using it with sup successfully to
accomplish this, though you have to change the sendmail command to
/usr/bin/msmtp -t.

Alternatively, you could run your own mail server and use the sendmail
that comes with that.
