Hello,
I've been using linux for a little over a year now and appear to have
installation down to an art. Thats actually good for me cause I learn
better that way. But.......Ive read everything I can get my eyes on
about mail. Ive read the mail queue how to the mail how to the mini this
and that blah blah blah.
I even called my isp who usually offer some great help, but they are in
the middle of some upgrades and cant spend much time with me on this
one.
What I want to do is get my mail from my ISP along with my wifes mail
from the same ISP and put it on my machines mail server and use netscape
to pop it off my mail server.
Yes I know this is the hard way but Im trying to learn about mail
servers/clients etc. The goal is to have sendmail or fetchmail or
whatever poll the ISP drag the mail to my machine say every 2 hrs via
diald and a cron job or something.
I think I need to go along the lines of uucp (i think thats what its
called) but I keep running into this MX record thing. I have a dialup
account with no registered domainname. I do have a static ip which
translates into scottk.dialup.cdc.net
After all this reading my brain is basically mush now.....anyone wanna
take up this challenge off the list and help me get it setup? I'll write
a how to for this situation as I havnt read one yet that fits my needs.
Thanks
Scott
