Dear Sluggers
I am new to linux and I want to be able to send and receive email from my linux box. When I log in as root my email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I can use sendmail to send an email to my hotmail account. However I want to be able to send email as say [EMAIL PROTECTED] How do I do this if I log on as root? I don't understand how you set up your mail user agent in unix. In windows I tell the email user agent what my pop server and smpt server is. The client communicates with these servers. Easy. I am trying to use pine. I can't see where pine tells me what my pop and smtp servers are. Am I blind? Is pine and elm merely mail readers as opposed to an email user agent. I can read roots mail with the mail readers. All I want to do is be able to send an email and receive and email as [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have looked at the sendmail site and it immediately trails off into how to set up pop servers etc. It is not immediately obvious where it explains how to do the trivial stuff!
