Re: redhat5.0 CDs + fetchmail



If you have one mailbox at the ISP then you have one recipient. How can
sendmail tell the difference between destinations ?

I use popclient all the time. If you run popclient as root, without the -c
option, it will put the mail into root's mailbox. RTFM popclient.

I use a temporary file and -c, and then cat >> it to the mailbox of the
user (me). If you want it to go over sendmail, you can. (HINT: sendmail
accepts mail from a pipe via 'mail'. RTFM).
