Interesting Mail setup
Hi group.
I've got an interesting Mail setup that I want to configure for my system,
but I don't even know where to start.
First a little about my system. I'm running woody on a computer that is
connected to the internet behind a router. The router has a 24/7 cable modem
connection.
Now for what I want. I have several pop accounts and a yahoo webmail account.
I want my machine to download all this mail and sort it into several different
folders.
You might be asking why does he want to do this. Well, I am a college
student, and I am out and about a lot. I want to be able to walk into any of
the computer labs on campus and ssh into my machine so that I can read my mail
in one convenient location.
So I've been looking into this and this is what I have come up with so far:
YahooPOPs + fetchmail + (sendmail or exim or qmail or postfix) + procmail.
The problem is it seems so overwhelming that I don't know where to start. I
was wondering if there where any good websites or HOWTOs or books or anything
about this. I would also appreciate any input you may have especially if you
have an easier way to do this.
MA
