Hi,

I just set up a virtual Postix/Dovecot/MySQL server serving multiple
domains.

The MySQL database has a table of each "user@domain".  Each
"user@domain" can receive email sent from an email client.

I read these emails with:
$ mutt -f imaps://user@dom...@mail.myserver.com
mutt prompts for a password.

Is there a command line for mutt so I can send email from a
"user@domain" in the database to an arbitrary email address?

Thank you,
Joe

Do you merely want a different address in the "From" header of the outgoing
mail?

 mutt -e 'set realname="Mr Foo";set from=...@example.org' b...@example.com

If you want the other headers to reflect the user too, you want to configure
the smtp-url, and remember to configure postfix to accept submissions too.

 mutt -e 'set smtp_url="smtp://...@mail.example.org:587/"' ...

And if you do not want to remember these cryptic parameters, a convenient
way to handle multiple identities is mutt's folder hooks.
