Anyone here mud? If so, do you have a favourite client for Linux? Is it in
portage?
I'm kinda leaning toward papaya, but I don't think it's in Portage - I suppose
I could always write an ebuild. I also really like mudtelnet, except for its

check your logs *or* sudo /usr/sbin/postfix start. Hopefully, postfix will
tell you which file (or directory) is missing.
Still nothing: the only thing in main.cf
I'll ask this again, as I didn't get any response before.
I have a Knoppix HD-install machine that I'd like to use the windows keys on
the keyboard to go left and right one vterm (which I'm using to mean
Ctrl-Alt-F# terminal).
This is the default way they work on both Gentoos I've installed.
Definitely. One popular choice (my own favorite) is postfix. The default
configuration requires just a few small edits to one configuration file -
very easy to setup and use.

edit /etc/postfix/main.cf
