Greetings:

   I recently installed Suse 10.1 and suspect I may have inadvertently 
activated the Mail Transfer Agent with YAST. I have since returned to 
YAST and set the MTA internet connection to none.  However my incoming 
mail continues to be automatically picked up from my ISP POP account and 
is appended to the /var/spool/myname buffer. My Thunderbird email 
client  bypasses the spool by connecting directly to the ISP thus I do 
not receive the  appended email without manual file copy intervention.

   I wonder if anyone in this forum can give me directions for 
disabling the MTA which I presume is service that is automatically 
picking up and spooling my incoming mail?

   Many thanks in advance for any help!

Tom Alldread
