The latest MM compiles and runs on Linux, but I can't use it to read my mail because it doesn't know how to get it. From what you said before, I have to put a copy of EMACS movemail in the right place. But then how does movemail know where to get mail from? And now that we use authenticated SMTP, how does that get set up -- certs etc? Has anybody up there done this already? I'd like to do it for ftp.kermit when I get a chance...

On ftp.kermit simply sendmail via the sendmail daemon on ftp.kermit. authenticated SMTP is only for SMTP relaying from a MUA client. movemail on ftp.kermit either needs to be an IMAP or POP client; or ftp.kermit needs access to the /var/spool/mail/ tree > Not that I have time to mess with this just now but... > > The latest MM compiles and runs on Linux, but I can't use it to read my mail > because it doesn't know how to get it.

You just need to set your incoming-mail variable so movemail knows how to get your mail, it looks like "po:$user" (per watsol:/usr/local/bin/movemail.pop). I am not clear on whether this is in emacs' movemail, since movemail.pop would call /usr/local/lib/mm/movemail.pop.bin. But we sometimes put the emacs movemail into .../lib/mm, so maybe it works too. --Melissa
