I am trying to set up Mozilla 0.9.4 on a Linux kernel 2.4.10 system. I have a problem setting up localhost as mail- and newsserver.
Setting up localhost as the newsserver, I only get a message about the server refusing the connection, when trying to subscribe to newsgroups. I have KNode set as my newsreader now, and this program gets newsgroups and newsmessages just fine from localhost. My problem with setting up localhost as mail-server is not setting the smtp-server. It's the options I get when I try to set up which way to connect to the mail-server that should recieve the mail. I cannot see which settings I should choose. The settings I have tried don't work. I use KMail as my mail-client now, and this program sends mail through localhost as the smtp-server and gets mails through localhost by fetching new mail from /var/spool/mail/[username]. Why can't the newsreader connect to localhost? Which settings should I use to get mail from localhost from /var/spool/mail/[username]? -- Med venlig hilsen / Best regards David List
