Apps for ffp
Is it possible to use unmodified debian-arm binaries on ffp?
I'm evaluating ffp and it seems like it has most things I need, however there is no fetchmail, mutt, or msmtp (or other lightweight sendmail equivalent.) I'd really love to have mutt at least.
I can almost run the debian-arm compile of mutt if I copy in the appropriate arm libraries into /lib on boot and symlink /share back to /share/ffp, however it doesnt quite work. I still get "Error opening terminal: vt102."
I would try setting up a compile environment except I'm pretty new and Im still evaluating ffp. If I could find out whether compiles of mutt/fetchmail are easy to attempt, or are floating out there somewhere, or I could easily make the debian-arm binaries work wothout too much kludging, that would help immensely as to whether I stick with ffp, or start down the road to a chrooted debian install.
Thanks.

No, you can only chroot Debian or try a native install. Afaict, fetchmail should compile fine, don't know about the rest.

Okay, it looks like optware "howto:optware" had everything I was looking for. I just didnt realise optware and ffp werent exclusive.
Thanks.

The DNS firmware (at least 1.06, not sure about previous versions) already has mutt and msmtp built in. That is what the system uses to send email alerts. I'm using it to send alerts from smartd too.

Re: Apps for ffp
Edit: Maybe howto:optware is the answer for me should look into that.

firmware msmtp works ok
firmware mutt seems broken, keeps saying "Error opening terminal: xterm" to me.
ffp contains mailx package but it doesnt support mime attachments, only oldiestylenunixuuencodedinbodycantbereadinnormalemailclientcrapattachments. 
As far as I know mutt should support mime. But I cant get firmware version to walk.
Any other simple options without chroot debian? I seems like a lot of work.
I looking to send (only send) mails with proper mime attachments noneinteractivly.

Installing ncurses makes the "vt102" error when starting mutt, go away. I had that, did that.
