Tom, et al -- The short answer to your question is simply that you need to have an MTA that will queue up your mail for shipment when you're next on line. Just about every *NIX comes with sendmail (for better or worse!), and qmail and postfix are popular options as well. Many people discover that they simply need a smarthost relay program and are happy with something as basic as ssmtp. I don't know of anyone still using uucp since even dialup connections have a tcp/ip stack (usually via ppp).
This sort of thing has been discussed on the list before, but usually under the guise of "why doesn't mutt talk directly over port 25 to another mail server?" rather than in the context of store and forward. If nobody else starts throwing you options for a lightweight MTA, you might check the archives. BTW, I consider SuSE an excellent choice :-) HTH & HAND :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
