Sending mail using smtp with python script on disroot account doesn't leave copy to sent mail, but using gmail with same script does. Bug or feature?
@hyde_stevenson
This is independent on mutt, sending with gmail smtp leaves copy to sent folder by default, while disroot doesn't. I don't really need that copy to sent folder, just wondering why it isn't enabled by default, it makes sense to me that is enabled.

@nikolal @hyde_stevenson This is purely server-side feature. SMTP normally doesn't care about folders on the server-side, folders are IMAP thing.
Seems like Gmail's SMTP does that as a courtesy feature, while Disroot just does what SMTP is supposed to.
Thunderbird for example will first send a message using SMTP (for actual delivery), and then use IMAP to store a copy of the same message in Sent folder.

Yes, when I login to gmail account I can see that mail is sent, on disroot I can't
@kravietz
If you use mutt you can configure it to leave a copy there maybe ?
python your_script.py | mutt -s "subject " -i msgbody.txt $email_address
?
