Hi,
Thanks Elton, A~~yvind, Norbert and Christopha first, I really got more solid idea on what should I do, however...
It seems that your solution has suggested exim/qmail/postfix, but my ISP has port the incoming 25port, that why I initially stated that I'd like to use fetch mail to act as a POP3 client from the isp pop3 server. With my limited knowledge, postfix (and the likes) are MTA so, what do it fullfil my needs, except relay my outgoing mail to a ISP smtp server?
Yep, it looks like you are reallynot familiar with e-mail service ... so I'll try to describe little bit more my solution:
1- my incoming mailbox is somewhere on ISP's server, which supports POP3 only
2- On my home server I installed an configured qmail + courier imap + sqwebmail + ... + fetchmail + ...
3- e-mails from ISP to my server are taken by fetchmail (running from crontab) and then delivered locally to maildir's for (virtual) users by qmail
4- for serving messages (stored in maildirs) I setup IMAP server to have it much more flexible
5- If I like to read messages, I need some client to IMAP server ... it can be Mozilla, Kmail .... and sqwebmail installed on any PC (including local server) (since I have sqwebmail, browser is enough)
In this way I see from any client the same ... so if I make new mail folder in Mozilla, it appears on webmail too ...
6. For outgoing mail I do not use ISP, but my qmail delivers it directly. (It is faster.)
U need to send e-mails using ISP rellay only in case u are on dialup line and/or u do not have direct connection to inet.
