I recently spent some time with interfacing kmail and fetchmail. Normally,
kmail can handle both ingoing and outgoing mailings (just like Outlook or
Eudora), which I feel is the easiest for newbies (or lazy ppl like myself)
but the current version doesn't have SSL support, so I had to configure
fetchmail with it. There's certainly a zillion ways to do email on Linux,
but if you want a little wrtie-up on this minor one, drop me an email...
