AFAIK, POP3 and IMAP are purely for email retreival. Sending will _have_ to be through your MTA. > I dont like to use my local sendmail!!!, Sendmail is not all _that_ ungainly a beast - I quite like it really. > i have an "offline" machine, i > just want to connect to internet, on console, execute a program, fetch > email , read and send mail using ONLY pop3 or imap, is that posible on a > modem unix like os such as freebsd ? is posible to set up mutt in order > to use only pop3 or imap for sending and reciving? this is the realation > i want: > console X-windows > nestcape lynx > wordperfect vi/ee/pico > netscape-mail what goes here?????????HELP! Retreival : fetchmail Filtering : procmail Reading : mutt Sending : Sendmail/Postfix/Exim/<insert fav MTA here> Note : you will have to setup a 'SmartHost' for your "offline" machine, so all mails are sent to another machine with DNS for sending. Hope this helps. pv. -- Prahlad Vaidyanathan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> What, me worry ? http://www.symonds.net/~prahladv/ Don't Panic ! --
