It would be nice wouldn't it. Here's what I plan to do when I get
home this evening:
1. Remove the /home/leeming/.forward file on baywatch.
2. From kmail on my home machine, post messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
a. delivering the mail using the SMTP built into kmail
b. delivering the mail using sendmail.
Both should reach my baywatch account.
3. Examine the /var/log/maillog messages on both my home machine
and on baywatch. The former will contain a log of the sending
of the sendmail message only, The latter will contain logs of
the receipt of both.
4. Return that /home/leeming/.forward file.
That should be enough to at least demonstrate the differences between
the two.
