Re: Problem with fetchmail (was: I can't start with mutt) solved !
Hi all,
Jeremy many thanks for inspirations.
My fault was that I should use mda "procmail -d %T". Simply, man was
read too fast.
Why I wanted to skipp MTA? Because MTA would call procmail !
There is a task. Boil water for tee having: a cattle, faucet with water,
matches and gas cooker. The answer: turn on faucet, fill the cattle with
water, turn the gas on, wait for boil.
The question is: How will boil water an IT engineer having as in the
task
but the cattle is already full of water. Of cause he/she'll pour out
water
from the cattle. Then the task is reduced to the previous one.
Regards
Chris
