Then I suggest you to setup fetchmail or getmail and some mail delivery agent like procmail. I use Postfix, fetchmail, procmail and crm114 for spam filtering. (And Postfix sends mails to ClamAV before delivering. -Wow, six programs just for email...) > o I also would like to use imap-ssl (dovecot) to read them. Right > now, if I am at work I have to run vnc through ssh. Dovecot is a good choice, I think. I use it, too and access is sometimes though an SSH tunnel. Although, more often I SSH directly to my machine and read my mail with mutt on the remote machine without SSL. That saved me the headaches invovled in creating a certificate that no client complains about. Mutt accesses my mails via IMAP, too, BTW. Some people don't like mutt's IMAP support but I am pretty content. > However, I would still want to be able to reply to mail from the > different accounts using the right return email address. Well, this last feature is totally up to the mailclient, since the program deciding your From: needs to know the message you reply to. Mutt has the nice options 'reverse_name' and 'reverse_realname'. You simply tell mutt with the 'alternatives' option all your mail addresses and then on your replies mutt uses the correct mail address. For new mails, you need to setup hooks, though.
