So I popped over to

You're right, it IS on the main site, just not on

Profanity isn't that complicated.
A single paragraph, that says, "GFY" is profanity. It is an acronym and
unlike the RTFM acronym, it's actual meaning is meant as full value.
That's what I'm referring to.

Yes, you're right. And if you'd care to contribute as others have to my new
web page list (I'm writing it) of things people should know to install
something like QMail, please do. It's already begun to take shape, and could

collecting them onto a web page. So even from Adam's efforts to be hostile
something good can come from it.

At any rate, by using QMail on your local system you will be able to

Later, recently, Dave Sill pointed out the reason why, which incidentally,
ISN'T yet in the manual, not the inetd manual, nor any qmail manual. Not yet
anyway.

No magic maybe, but perhaps a different syntax in the inetd that Redhat
uses.

Is he seriously contending that with such a rapid flurry of mail coming
through the pipe, that it would be safer to append mails to open files,
possibly concurrently?
I'm no genius but it seems to me that if a Mailbox is open and you are
writing to it, and another process is also writing to it, t
internal IP address of my Linux box
192.168.0.2 is the IP address of one windows box.
192.168.0.3 is the IP address of another windows box
which is rarely on.
Those are all the IP numbers.

What "adjustments" are required? Oh, wait, if inetd became unsupoorted after

Certainly on my system, smtp did NOT function when I placed the same command
in my inetd as per the tarball instructions but when I installed the Memphis
RPM, which uses the ucsi
cause it was relevant to the problem of answering port 110

So I filter based on what email address is sent to, thus

Well, I certainly do. He seemed to describe already having "4 redundant
firewalls" whatever tha
in my qmail startup script?
Also, should it work like this?
I have a user account alex with a password.
If I specify my hostname (what is returned when I execute hostname),
username, and password in a normal pop account, I should be able to connect
and read my mail, right?
