I recently spent some time with interfacing kmail and fetchmail. Normally, kmail can handle both ingoing and outgoing mailings (just like Outlook or Eudora), which I feel is the easiest for newbies (or lazy ppl like myself) but the current version doesn't have SSL support, so I had to configure fetchmail with it. There's certainly a zillion ways to do email on Linux, but if you want a little wrtie-up on this minor one, drop me an email... --Brendan
