Fetchmail will retrieve mail from a remote location, then deliver it locally via your specified mechanism. In my case, procmail, which filters it to folders. Only fetchmail needs to know the pop information, it delivers mail locally to exim. Procmail fetches mail from exim and dumps it to my local folder(s). My mail agent (mutt) reads my local folders. It sends _out_bound mail through exim, which is configured to use my ISP's SMTP relay as a smarthost. The only two external interfaces are fetchmail (incoming) and exim (outgoing). > Or do I need to put that info in *each* .*rc file? No. -- Karsten M.
