I do that with fetchmail and an IMAP server. But why bother? That mail will still be there when your internet connection is restored.
i think the idea is that you keep using your email as before--except you won't receive any from outside while the connection is down, of course. but you can keep sending new mails & replying to old ones w/o thinking about the ISP state. once it's up again, all the qued stuff gets sent out. but this makes more sense if your internet connection is regularly down, or often. if it's a once-in-a-long-time occurence, it's probably wasted effort to set up an intermittent mail server, or whatever that's called. it's not exactly easy. -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
