ok, since i've been trying to get procmail to work for the past few days, i've also gotten interested in how email works in general. i noticed on my home system, i can email between all my users just by using mutt and emailing to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" or even just emailing to "username". when i do that, i notice that stuff ends up in /var/spool/mail/username. interesting. so i thought, maybe i can email myself from outside my lan, i.e. send an email to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" from an external email account (like hotmail) and it would end up in /var/spool/email/cjb and i would be able to see it with mutt. wrong! why not though? where can i read about how email work in linux? specifically redhat 9?
thanks for the info, -- christopher -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
