I downloaded libsasl and the sendmail rpms from nstc.com, you sent me the
link remember.

But that's how it is happening. and besides, mqueue is overflowing.
(one reboot later) ....
Sorry, ~was~ overflowing. I rebooted into linux, and all the mail was there
in my mailbox. It suddenly seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. mqueue is
now empty. Strange to say the least.
Can someone explain where a mail message actually goes once it is downloaded
onto your machine ? Who takes hold of it, fetchmail ? procmail ? mutt/pine ?
How does one know that all the mail has been downloaded, other than looking
at maillog ?

sharukh
