I'd be grateful if someone could just clarify a couple of things before i do an installation.
using Ubuntu 8.04 on a standalone PC connected to broadband. I chose Mutt as i can use vim as an editor and hopefully will be able to reply to emails from my many yahoogroups and mail lists rather more quickly than i have been doing. I have three emails addresses with googlemail.com Reading the Mutt manual and the gentoo guide; i gather that i need to install fetchmail, procmail, mutt and one of a] nbstmp, b]ssmtp, c] esmtp, d] mstmp as i'm not setting up an actual mail server either of these are adequate but which should i choose. mstmp i gather can be set up for SSL. SSL is what i have set up for Thunderbird and had no problems. thanks james
