Maybe (smail)+diald+runq+cron. Use cron to call runq (which is a part of smail) and diald will bring the link up automagically, and runq will send the mail. I don't know much about fetchmail's multidrop capability, but that might require a POP mailbox for every user on the main server. When you get this figured out, I would appreciate hearing how you did it. Reading fetchmail's man page now, Rob > > E.- > > -- > > Eloy A.
