Disabling the password needed for sudo for a specific user is very easy in Ubuntu. This method applies to Ubuntu 16.04, but probably also other versions of Ubuntu and maybe even other distros.

I’ve been using mutt with offlineimap and msmtp for a while now, and I want to use this post to collect some features and tips that I’ve found myself often searching for.
