OK. "$ netstat -an | grep 143" now returns the following: tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:143 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN Is this how it's supposed to be? I still can't recieve mail. the users have files in /var/spool/mail, but they're all 0 bytes, even though I've sent several mails to all. I'm behind a firewall, but I've opened and forwarder post 143. Besides, when trying to send a mail from one user to another within the network it doesn't work either. Any suggestions? In Pine I've changed inbox-path to /var/spool/mail/[username]. Is that correct?
