Ya, set up a UUCP session between the two. If you have unix on the calling side (the lame side w/out a static IP), that one box *can* run SMTP (and probably will, if you are running sendmail), so that the disconnected network can use modern tools, but still have a store-and-forward mail environment. As to *really* doing SMTP to a dynamic IP, er.. ya, right. -- Jason Fesler jfesler@calweb.com 'whois jf319' | "Time is an illusion; Admin, CalWeb Internet Services www.calweb.com | lunchtime, doubly so."
