Hmmm... Nice program, this mutt. I think I am going to deinstall elm. :-) Gee, so many choices in this FreeBSD world! I feel like when I first came to the US and wanted to wash my hair. I was at St. Bonaventure University, and went to the college store to buy some shampoo. But they had so many different ones. In my home country we had two types: One for light hair, one for dark. I was totally confused. Luckily, my faculty advisor happened to be in the store. So I asked him which shampoo I should get. He gave me a very strange look, then went through all the brands and said: "This one. No, this one is cheaper." That was my first lesson in shopping in the US (except it does not apply to free software :). Anyway, I like this mutt. It also appears from whatever appeared on my screen during the install that it can be used with different languages. This is very important to me (my suite of i18n tools is about to be added to the ports). > > and, most importantly, how to receive messages from my ISP. > > -lee...check out /usr/ports/mail/fetchmail. Thanks, I already received a private message with the same suggestion, and have it installed. I think I will continue using Eudora at the receiving end until I am satisfied I have everything set up properly for sending messages and am comfortable with it.
