RE: How the average guy gets mail...

Hi,
use fetchmail with the -d option followed by the frequency to check mail ie
600 for 10 minutes and add the line to your .xsession profile (name depends
on what window manager you use, mines xdm).
A line something like:
fetchmail -d 600 &

Regards

Wayne

Hey,

I've been using mail for the past month (or two), by running 'fetchmail ;
mutt'.
This is a *little* bit annoying, because I'd rather be able to get my mail
and read it with one command.  Is their a way to download mail, while in
mutt?

Thanks,
Cameron Matheson
