Hello Nishka,

You don't need to follow this format of responding to emails. Just respond
inline.

My response to your email is as follows: I followed the instructions at

So you are able to send emails but not receive them? Is that all your
muttrc file contains? Have you also made a .esmtprc file?
You could try setting up mutt with smtp by searching google for .muttrc
configuration files that use smtp.

Thank you for your time.
