I'd prefer *not* to telnet. The mail reader I'm using on NT is Pegagus, which will work with a pop server. From your comments and the notes on qpopper, it sounds like that's what qpopper is, a pop server. If I install qpopper, will the log messages [which freebsd generates] arrive at that pop server? I'm assuming that I'll be able to read from that POP server from my NT box. Will I need to telnet with the solution you are suggesting? -- Dan Langille DVL Software Limited http://www.dvl-software.com : for race timing solutions To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
