Nope, mail is special:  it does not use the MU configuration framework
(by the way, this fact is emphasized the docs).

This deserves some clarification. 'mail' does check .mail file
using MU framework for at least 'mailbox' statement, since that's
how I configured my imap account. Is that deprecated behavior? I
intended to write a patch with a sugestion for a documentation
change, but I could not find a list of what statements 'mail' does
read from .mail file.

[...] set the default mailer you need to add the following to
your ~/.mailrc:

  set sendmail "smtp://whatever.it.is"

with

    sendmail="smtp://smtp.google.com"
    set verbose

I get this lines:

    [...]
    DEBUG: TLS negotiation succeeded
    DEBUG: mu_mailer_send_message(): using user's address: address@hidden
    DEBUG: > MAIL FROM:<address@hidden>
    DEBUG: < 553 5.1.8 <address@hidden>... Domain of sender address 
address@hidden does not exist
    DEBUG: > QUIT

My domain name actually do not exist, as I'm using a cable
provider. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Maurício
