I've been trying to set up POP3 email access (in text mode instead of from the desktop), and am really stumped now. I just did a little experiment and installed fetchmail, then from the command prompt gave the fetchmail command as follows:
fetchmail -p AUTO -u gsutton9503 mail.charter.net I was then asked for my password for the server. After entering the password, apparently a bunch of messages downloaded to somewhere on my hard drive and were deleted off of the server. Where did the messages get saved to, and how do I access them? I tried running mutt, but at the bottom of the screen is the notice: /var/mail/scarletdown: No such file or directory (errno = 2) (scarletdown is the name of the regular non-root user account). I did a little investigating and it seems that there should be a file (or possibly a directory) in each user's home directory called mbox. Well, there isn't, and I am not sure where else to look for mbox. So since mutt doesn't work, how do I access those 19 messages that were downloaded? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
