dsl and sendmail

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Is there any services that hold mail when I'm offline so I can use my own
domain easily in email? I have no servers which it's OK to relay mail using
my domain in the from header, so I'd have to use my linux box sendmail smtp
server to do it.
