Re: fetchmail question
Hi Alex,
I've no solution for your problem but I remember that fetchmailconf
provides an option to leave messages on server (on a per account basis).
Perahps you sdhould try to generate a pseudo config with it just to see
what you can add.
I use also two email addresses but I really use only one because I've not
yet manage to automatically select the sender ID.
I mean, I would like with one mail reader (balsa, mutt, ...) to send a mail
to a mailing list with my second address but to a friend with my first
address.
I think about rules (similar to procmail's one) to said send mail to this
address with this sender mail address, ...
My purpose is differant than yours, I use somtimes a IMP to remotely
consult my box but the mailing list traffic make this difficult. So I use
two distincts addresses, the primary one is easily consultable.
I imagine this is possible with sendmail but the sendmail configuration is
really difficult. So I use exim but I believe this kind of config is not
possible with it.
