Subject: making sendmail call to msmtp asynchronous?
Date: Mon, 21 Mar 2011 14:19:20 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k4ft9es7.fsf@ericabrahamsen.net> (raw)

I'm trying to make mail sending/receiving as non-blocking as possible. I
was pleased with msmtp and having started using the sister program mpop
to feed gnus mail. I read four different POP accounts and it was slow.
Now I'm wondering how hard it would be to make the call to msmtp for
outgoing mail asynchronous. Would it be possible just to dump the mail
on msmtp, and have a callback that either pops up a buffer (for errors)
or a message in the minibuffer (for success)? How difficult would that
be?

Thanks!
Eric
