I=92ve gotten sendmail to work on the outside, the Internet, but don=92t know how to configure mutt to receive mail from the Internet. I want to do two things, either receive mail from my ISP=92s mail server(s) or host my own mail server, cucipop = or qpopper, or qmail. =20 (Isn=92t cucipop just a remote POP3 fetcher?) =20 I=92ve set up my box as hostname: ibsd.myip.org because I have an ISP IP address from their DHCP server, so I can run a dynamic hostname on the Internet with the DNS2Go package; I want to host a mail server on my ibsd.myip.org box, what are the main config files do I need to config to get mail sent to me, on my BSD box? Is this a DNS/BIND issue? =20 Assuming I have the BSD box running 24/7, and the mail server running, what do I configure to get any of my mail relaying to my box? at: ibsd.myip.org =20 I=92ve tried to get qpopper to work, but no success. Any help is = EXTREMELY appreciated. =20 Thank you. =20 Nick ------=_NextPart_000_000B_01C1E245.E093FBE0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html xmlns:o=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" = xmlns:w=3D"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" = xmlns=3D"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">;
