As an additional note, inc(1) can retrieve mail directly from a POP server (we don't support IMAP just yet). It can do TLS and advanced security. I mention that only because it might be easier if you want to reduce the number of moving parts. You have the same choice when it comes to sending email; nmh can speak authenticated SMTP directly to a mail server or you can configure it to speak to a local SMTP server or sendmail instance. --Ken -- nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
