Yes, that should work fine if you have set postfix up with yast. I also use fetchmail for mail downloading, and procmail for mail filtering.

Thank you Jostein. If I remember correct, there is a fetchmail tool ?. Where can i read about procmail?. One more thing. Is Mutt only a one user mailer ?. I have more than one mailaddress, so I need to have them all to arrive here at this computer.

Install fetchmail from the suse dvd or the net. Setup your accounts with fetchmailconf, or edit ~/.fetchmailrc directly. You can have several accounts.
Run fetchmail first with 'fetchmail -vvv' to see it works correctly after configuration, then 'fetchmail -d 60' to run it as a daemon, or set it up in cron.
Procmail: http://www.ii.com/internet/robots/procmail/qs/

Hi again. I have both fetchmail and fetchmailconf installed, but I cannot get fetchmailconf up running. I cannot find ~/.fetchmailrc. Does a running fetchmailconf need .fetchmailrc ?. What do I do when I haven't a .fetchmailrc. One thin I wonder is, that an rpm -ql shows that I should have fetchmailrc in /etc, but the fact is, that I haven't it. I have made an updatedb, to see if it had soemthing to do with something not deleted, but no.: rpm -lq fetchmail /etc/fetchmailrc /etc/init.d/fetchmail /etc/logrotate.d/fetchmail /sbin/rcfetchmail /usr/bin/fetchmail This shows no fetchmailrc: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 322 Oct 2 2004 exports -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 25028 Oct 2 2004 fb.modes -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1246 Oct 2 2004 fdprm -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 23862 Oct 4 2004 festival.scm -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 26 Oct 2 2004 filesystems drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 264 Mar 22 09:02 fonts drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 120 Mar 22 09:28 foomatic -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2847 Mar 3 17:54 freshclam.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 790 Mar 22 09:15 fstab -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 353 Oct 6 2004 fstab.iscsi -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 565 Oct 2 2004 ftpusers drwx------ 3 root root 72 Apr 4 20:55 gconf drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 72 Mar 22 09:42 gimp What can I do to get it to work ?.
