Hi there!

I have a problem. I'm running a freebsd 3.4 release at home, and I've set it up to send mail via my ISP. For the purpose I'm useing sendmail with masquerading, 'coz I don't have any FQDN. So, I start sendmail during startup with 'sendmail -bs -q30m', then, when I connect to my ISP, I'm issuing 'sendmail -q' to flush the messages in the queue. To fetch my messages from the ISP I'm using fetchmail, which is started thru script. It's OK, I receive them, they're deliverred locally, but I gotta flush sendmail again in order my other users (I mean local on my machine) to receive mail. Then I have to wait until the mail is delivered.

Should I use procmail instead of mail.local?!
Please, help! I'm still very new to FreeBSD... 

So long,
Nickola
