mail scheduler

[Sepp Tannhuber]

Dear all,

sometimes I would like to send an E-Mail not immediately but at a later time.
This can be scheduled with an "at" process from command line. But it would be
more comfortable to compose the message with mutt and let mutt forward it to
the at daemon. The principle seems to be easy. But I have absolutely no idea how
to do it. Does anybody know if this can be done with a mutt macro?
Or is there any other option?

Best regards
Joseph

I'm confused as to  why you need to go thru'  mutt.  Composing in Mutt
just happens with your $EDITOR  anyway.  I guess the recipient's names
are tab completed.

If you're not after things like that, you can use "at" to go:
cat messagebody | mutt -s "subject" recipient1 recipient2...
