i continue to have problems setting up my email
configuration. I have run eximconfig but have had trouble working out how
to answer some of the questions
I am not sure what is meant by some of the terms
i.e. what is my visible mail name. To be honest i have used the default settings
to set up exim i have no idea in most cases whether this is correct. I am
dialling up to my isp using pon, I can't fine where to set up the isp smtp info
re sending mail. Fetchmail seems to be ok but where does it write the emails to.
I have installed mutt but when i run it i get the message that there is no
/var/spool/mail/jmj directory jmj being my user name. Apparently exim should set
this up for me/ I am truly at a loss. Mutt is also supposed to make a file
called .muttrc in my home directory but this does not exist, apparently without
it i cant specify which MTA i am using. Is there a mutt configuration
script. If you have any idea how to proceed. If it would be easier to use
another MTA i am happy to do so although i hear that exim is the
best.
thanks for your help
very confused
