Jordan, I just recently (a few months ago) switched from using plain 'ole 
Kmail to the postfix/fetchmail/procmail route. I still use Kmail as the 
mailer "front end" but postfix/fetchmail/procmail does all the real work. It 
was a bit difficult but not as hard as I thought it would be. Go to the 
Mandrake website, go to Mandrake user, and follow the links to the tutorial 
(mail the Linux/Unix way!) I've come to appreciate it much more.

If you have problems, post them here and the rest of us will try to help as 
best we can.


PS BTW, I always heard that the sendmail config file was a nightmare as well, 
although I've never actually fooled with it.
