I saw from earlier postings that quite a few of you are using postfix.
I've been using netscrape for e-mail
and a recent bout with X convinced me that I should set up e-mail
"properly".
    I managed to get postfix on my machine and exim off, but I could use
a hand configuring postfix.
My machine is strictly dial-up, so I downloaded fetchmail (will that
work w/ postfix? suggestions?).
    I think I have fetchmail set up OK, eg;

            ~/.fetchmailrc

            bash-2.04$ cat .fetchmailrc
            poll pop.mindsprind.com protocol POP3 username batemand is
dsb password xxxxxxx fetchall

    Is there a configuatorer/magic pill that sets up postfix, or am I
going to edit main.cf/master.cf by hand?
    Same question about mutt, will it work w/ postfix/fetchmail? edit
.muttrc?

    Seems like a-lot of work compared to netscrape, but then, when X
goes down and your only help is
this mail-list...well, you get the point.

TIA,
Dave
