Hi Andrew. Exim is a mail transport agent. It sends mail. If you want to get mail via pop/imap/web or whatever, you have to use a program that does that. For pop you would need a pop server. I wouldn't want to do your homework for you. Debian's dpkg-reconfigure takes care of the common configuration tasks. If you need to do configurations on your own you need to read the full exim4 spec file. Happy reading. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
