If you're sending mail between hosts on a network AND each of the clients (nodes) is running its own mail server (exim, postfix, qmail, sendmail, etc.), AND you have host names for each node (these don't need to be fully qualified), then you can send mail addressed to user@host. Otherwise, it may be more convenient to set up something like an IMAP server from which all hosts can pull mail. -- Karsten M.
