you can refer to an article in the Linux Gazette no. 43 which describes in
detail a home network similar to yours - exim, fetchmail + mutt (?). i
followed the configurations closely, and everything worked for me except
the "remove sender header" which i corrected with a rewrite rule - i am
not writing from my computer so i can't copy the section of the exim.conf
file, but it has been posted to this list.
