The part you quoted above asked if you have X forwarding enabled and if you're using it. There is nothing stopping you from opening attachments if you have X forwarding enabled and you ssh with -X or -Y. > Any idea how to do these two steps (view attachment and send emails with > attachment from local filesystem). You could scp the file over and attach it from there, or use NFS or some other shared file system accessible on both machines. Something amazing and simple you may like, if you have X running on both systems and you can install rox-filer, you can drag and drop cross system! It's much quicker and easier than using scp although NFS is a good solution, albeit not graphical. -- ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) Powered by Lemote Fuloong against HTML e-mail X Loongson MIPS and OpenBSD and proprietary / \ http://www.mutt.org attachments Code Blue or Go Home!
