Just use localhost as your smtp server then :) > someone posted somthing about getting a pop server, too, but I'm not > clear on that, either.

You may want to use imap instead of pop to access it with both mailers? And, if you have different account and want to be able to get both of them with only one client you should probably use fetchmail (I think netscape has support for querying multiple servers though). Netscape mail is not all that bad, in fact its my favorite mail client when im forced under windows. I dont know about xfmail but Ive already heard many good comments too. Of course you can always try mutt :-) I'm sure you'll find a client just fit for you if you try a few ones... -Lex
