  • My thanks to you for your help, and my apologies. However, this does not appear to run e-mail process, or at least have any effect on the file. Commented Oct 3, 2021 at 1:41
  • Did you fix up the path so that it points to the right executtable? Edited the question to point that out (in the TL;DR section). Commented Oct 3, 2021 at 1:47
  • Yes, I did. I have verified that it is correct and the path leads to the executable which is as here: ianfinlayson.net/posts/10-mutt (and works with vim). Commented Oct 3, 2021 at 2:58
  • I have even gone out and applied the executable to the /tmp/mutt-* file and it does work when applied using the commandline so I do not understand why it does not work for me. Commented Oct 3, 2021 at 3:11
  • Btw, I exit emacs using 'C-x C-c'. Btw, thanks for the detailed explanation! Commented Oct 3, 2021 at 3:18
