If you do not want to use your own smtp capibilities, e.g. sendmail or exim on your own system, for sending mail, then you need to specify an external smtp server. That's how to send mail. The fetchmailrc you have is fairly OK, but you might want a 'set daemon' statement to tell it how often to go out and get your incoming mail. I've included my current .fetchmailrc below (edited, of course). Then, you execute fetchmail as: fetchmail -n That way it will just keep on working. If you want to watch it do its thing, try fetchmail -d0. set daemon 60 poll 165.212.14.253 proto pop3 user USERNAME pass PASSWORD poll 216.254.0.194 proto pop3 user USERNAME pass PASSWORD On Mon, 17 Sep 2001, Jim Ruby wrote: > Hi, > > Ok, I have created a .fetchmailrc file, but now do I get it to send the mail out using my pop3 or other > here is what is in my .fetchmailrc file > poll mail.foo.net > user username > pass password > keep > > how do I get the rest to go. > > btw: mutt, any hints using it with speakup, how to quickly read messages etc. > > there is so much to learn here. > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup at braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup >
