I could setup a FreeBSD machine and put popper on it. The question is: How do I configure it to dialup the dns server and mail gateway and retrieve the mail. Here is the way it would look: mx1.hiper.net - Mail gateway ns1.hiper.net - DNS Server (same machine) pm1.hiper.net - Livinston Portmaster with modems and radius authentication. mach1.frajjoe.com - Machine on their premises with a modem, network adapter, tied into their network, pop3 configured, delivering mail to local users ... So, mach1.frajjoe.com needs to dialup, periodically, and get the mail directed to frajjoe.com, store it until users grab it through the pop3 server. How is this setup?
