Hi all,
I'm interested in installing woody on this hand-me-down P133 laptop that a
friend's mom is no longer using, and it has neither CD-ROM drive nor NIC,

I have this little issue with exim. My setup is that I'm retrieving mail

In my ongoing attempt to get woody installed on this ol' P 133 laptop.

to add a route to my desktop box. The laptop is called roadie,

So really, the only way you're likely to lose your mail with fetchmail
is if your MTA is so misconfigured tha
#x27;s builtin support for mailing lists?
Add the line
subscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED]
somewhere in your .muttrc, and then use L for "reply-to-list"...
I _think_ this setup will even respect the mail-followup-to header and
automatically cc people when they have that header set (not sure,
