Hi. I have a set-up that is perfect for me. I get the mail (POP3) using fetchmail - then postfix and procmail delivers the mail to the IMAP-server (Cyrus).
Since I use a number of email clients (Mutt, Evolution, Mozilla) and read my mail from a number of locations this is perfect :) You might want to take a look at "How to set up IMAP on the cheap" - a 5-piece article on linuxworld.com. I followed this article pretty much to the point to get my system up and running. http://www.linuxworld.com/site-stories/2002/0318.ldap1.html Best Regards & HTH //Anders On Mon, Jun 03, 2002 at 11:46:32PM +0000, Dan Hensley wrote: > The reason I'm asking on this list is that I know there are some who > have mentioned previously doing this.
