Quoting Mary Gardiner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I wasn't clear in my original mail: I'm more interested in how people
get their laptop to switch mail settings between "inside horrible
network" and "normal operation" than I am in specifically what their
inside-horrible-network settings are, because in this particular case I
can use the university's mail server to get mail out (and I also have an
SSH server on my own machine listening on 443, so if I couldn't I could
do various SSH tunneling). It's just annoying to have to remember to
re-configure my mail client (in this case, actually Postfix, but similar
problems apply to any client, whether full MTA or not) when I am located
at uni, and again when I leave.
:-)
well of course....
maybe a quick and nasty shell/python/perl script to change/update/swap
your configuration file is what you need....
that would save you having to edit it manually every time...
