You have many options one is to pop it from the remote mailserver i.e something like you have a file called .fecthmailrc in your home directory that looks like this poll remote.mail.server protocol pop3 nodns localdomains remote.mail.server hostname.of.yourmachine user yourusername pass password to root * here that should do the trick. you then run chmod 0710 .fetchmailrc and run the command fetchmail -va from the command prompt. Another way is if they have ssh and allow you to login via ssh then you can down load ssh from http://www.ssh.org configure it and use it to login to them. There are many other alternantives including IMAP for example if they don't provide pop3 but do imap you can change the protocol line above to imap. > > hi all, > > I want to send and receive mails in a remote mail server(I > register a free mailbox).
