Fetchmail can do multi drop, it's a fairly standard setup. Check the docs. I find Gmail web interface good enough for my needs. Not sure why one would want to use fetchmail and download emails. Mutt can pull Gmail directly over IMAP and with a little help from light weight smtp clients it can also send email directly. No need for fetchmail or exim. > How do I subvert this.

Unless you have 100% power backup and ISP connectivity don't run your own mail server. You'll also require good anti spam solution. Get a shared account with any web hosting provider or VPS and use that as your smart host. You're already doing this with Gmail, I'm not sure what exactly you are trying to accomplish. - Raja _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
