[tor-talk] torsocks with mutt



System: Debian testing with all latest updates
torsocks version: 2.0.0 from repo
tor version from latest Tor browser bundle

Relevant part of torsocks's log file:

Am I right that it is mutt's request for resolving $HOSTNAME (it is local machine's name)?
Are there any perils to request to resolve local machine's name _to Tor network_ (yes, I know 
about local machine's name also in mail's headers)?
