I believe you could look into: fetchmail -- to collect your external pop3 accounts and put them into your local mailbox on your local FreeBSD machine sendmail -- to send all of your outgoing email through a designated smtp server (ie smarthost). Add this to your sendmail.cf file and restart sendmail (if in deamon mode) DSsmtp:[smtp.yourhost.com] > I'm sending this mail from a Windows box.
