I'm in the midst of migrating from XEmacs to GNU Emacs on my Mac. My
current stumbling block is sending mail. I use VM to read mail. Whenever
I try to send a message from a buffer created by vm-mail it executes
vm-mail-send-and-exit. For some reason that pops open Thunderbird to send
the message.
Now I suppose this would be fine if I actually liked Thunderbird. I use
it only for work email, and curse it repeatedly, multiple times per day.
In XEmacs I was using an older version of VM (8.0.2.something). I
installed the current version (8.1.93a) in GNU Emacs. I dug into the
source, but couldn't figure out how it passed off the message to T-Bird.
How do I get VM to just send the dang message itself?
Thanks,
Skip Montanaro

Try customizing the send-mail-client variable (it defaults to mailclient-send-it
on Mac OS X).
