I admit I'm a bit stuck on this one. I've never used Kmail to post mail from one machine to another without going anywhere near the Internet, but it would be nice to know if it's possible. I've learned a lot from having started this thread, and am gratefull for all the folks that have made suggestions to solve my problem. Thanks very much to all those folks that have replied. Nigel.
