No. So long as your ISP offers SMTP delivery postfix will work. If you don't have smtp delivery then fetchmail will pull mail from POP3 mailboxes and deliver it to your Linux mail system. Fetchmail may also send mail to your ISP with SMTP, I don't know, I don't use it myself. If not then you can use postfix for that. A domain name is something you should look into though, it is not expensive, (under GBP7 for .org.uk, for two years,) and even without postfix etc it can make your life a lot easier if you want to change ISPs. For example 123-reg.co.uk, (and I think, lots of others,) offer mail redirection. so you just redirect [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] When you change isp, you just change the redirect, and your email address stays the same. -- Richard Urwin
