在安装包中: /msmtp-1.4.28/scripts/msmtpqueue目录下有如下文件：

三个文件的作用如下：
1. msmtp-enqueue.sh
Let your MUA "send" mails with this script.
It will store all mails in a queue directory for later delivery.
This script will save two files for each mail: one contains the mail, the
other one contains the command line for msmtp (including options and the
recipients). Thus you can use all msmtp options with this script.
Example (using Mutt):
In your Mutt configuration file, replace
set sendmail="/path/to/msmtp [options]"
with
set sendmail="/path/to/msmtp-enqueue.sh [options]"
This script cannot detect errors in its command line or the msmtp
configuration file. You won't see error messages before msmtp-runqueue.sh
runs msmtp to send the mails. So test your msmtp configuration before using
msmtp-enqueue.sh.
2. msmtp-runqueue.sh
Run this script when you are online to send all mails in the queue
directory.
It will use the saved msmtp command line for each mail.
Mails sent successfully will be deleted from the queue directory.
Mails whose delivery failed will be left untouched; you may want to edit
them, delete them by hand or simply run msmtp-runqueue.sh at a later time.
3. msmtp-listqueue.sh
This script lists all the mails in the queue.
参考的文章（http://zoomquiet.org/res/scrapbook/ZqFLOSS/data/20110506155957/）说安装后会在/usr/share/doc/msmtp/examples中包含以上文件，安装两遍没有找到该目录，手动创建目录并将/msmtp-1.4.28/scripts/msmtpqueue中的内容复制到/usr/share/doc/msmtp/examples中（放到原来目录也可）。

[root@hunt1574 examples]# pwd
/usr/share/doc/msmtp/examples
在当前用户创建.mutt目录，将/usr/share/doc/msmtp/examples的链接指向.mutt。
[root@hunt1574 examples]# ln -s /usr/share/doc/msmtp/examples/* ~/.mutt
[root@hunt1574 ~]# ls .mutt
ChangeLog msmtp-enqueue.sh msmtp-listqueue.sh msmtp-runqueue.sh EADME
修改.muttrc:
[root@hunt1574 ~]# cat .muttrc
#set sendmail="/usr/local/bin/msmtp"
set sendmail="~/.mutt/msmtp-enqueue.sh" ----修改后的内容
set use_from=yes
set from="hunt1574
set envelope_from=yes
set sendmail_wait=0
测试：
[root@hunt1574 ~]# cat .muttrc | mutt -s "Muttrc configfile" [email protected]
---发送一份邮件给[email protected]，此时邮件进行队列，并未发送出去。
[root@hunt1574 ~]# cd .msmtpqueue/

登录邮箱查看:
另外，登录邮箱发邮件的做法网上类似这样的：
修改/etc/mail.rc,加入以下内容：
set smtp=smtp.test.com
set smtp-auth=login
set smtp-auth-user=hunt1574
set smtp-auth-password=123456
在RHEL5.4 及RHEL4.5均未通过，总是连接本地127.0.0.1，若有成功的肯请赐教，邮箱：[email protected]。
