Originally, I was thinking Be sure you cover the common ways of doing remote mail, like what it means to leave the mail on the server, versus bringing it in locally, and how one sets up the mailers to do that. Additionally, how to send. If you did that, then I'd read it. It would be much better for me to read and respond to my mail locally instead of through ssh, but I've never had the time to learn how. -r To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
