If I were to have mutt get mail from my ISP's POP3 server, do I need some other program running, like fetchmail or something? I dont know how mutt works, but it doesn't get any mail for me from my host, I've included the following in my .muttrc config file: set pop_hostname="pop-server.wi.rr.com" set pop_ser="nl3481" set pop_pass="mypass" And so forth with my mailbox and such. Do I need to do anything to actually receive mail from my mail server? Thanks. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
