Hello, You can also use pon since the new pppconfig will support dial on demand. The trick is to issue the pon statement following your boot up. That will configure your network to listen for outgoing packets and start the link automatically (like windoz does) and stop it at a preset time yo

Thanks to all who replied to my problems using mail and mailx. They still don't work for me, even though I can read my spool file. Mail lists my headers, but when I press enter to read the message, it exits and tells me that the messages remain on the spool. It won't show them to me. Could this

Mail Config

1997-07-28 Thread Kevin Traas
I've got fetchmail up-and-running on my local system. It is configured for multi-drop - i.e. all incoming mail for my domain goes into one account at my ISP which fetchmail receives and then "resends" to smail on my box for delivery to the individual accounts. All's well. Everything's great.
