Re: [TCLUG:1949] Sat Nov 7 meeting

i second this... sendmail has a lot of documentation, but i'ld like to get
a shotgun rundown of what can be done and how to do it...

specifically, i need to login on linux under my POP account name in order
to retrieve mail, then view it from that specific user....  i'ld like to
have the mail available to a different localhost account because i'm
getting sick of "su - <POP account name>"'ing all the time.
