+## <span id="send_mail">**Send mail**</span>
+
+Notmuch does not send your mail. The frontends (MUAs) that utilize notmuch
+does that. Often these MUAs use sendmail(8) to send your mail.
+
+If you prefer a simpler solution like msmtp, first
+[install and configure msmtp](http://msmtp.sourceforge.net/).
+
+Then create a symbolic link so that msmtp will be called instead of sendmail
+when you press the keyboard shortcut to send your message.
+
+ $ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/msmtp /usr/sbin/sendmail
