debs,
i'm trying to install potato on a 486 box (to be used as a firewall). i want
to install via cd from an external cdrom.
i get to the point where it needs to "install operating system kernel and

install the system,

debs,
now that my email trifecta (fetchmail/exim/mutt) is working out, i wonder if
there's a way to save a copy of the new messages i send (other than adding my
own email addy on the "to:" line).

debs,
...trying to wean myself from the netscape email client (hopefully with
fetchmail/exim/mutt). i've got mutt running to compose/send my email. now,
i'm trying to get my email.
here is my sample fetchmail result:
$ fetchmail
1 message for pplaw at mail.pcisys.net (804 octets).
reading me
debs,
where do i tell fetchmail my username? (background: my isp username is
"pplaw," and my non-root account is "bt." when i run fetchmail, i get, "[EMAIL
PROTECTED]," instead of, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]")
