Hello, Thank you for your attention. But I have two another questions: What access protocol is better: IMAP or POP3, and what server implementation works better? I see imap-uw-4.7, cyrus-1.5.19, qpopper-2.53 in the FreeBSD ports... As I understand, fetchmail only fetches mail. But I would like also to get the mail written on the client side delivered, as if it were written on the server side (i.e., with the address of user on the server host, and so on). Can sendmail running on the client/server sides provide it? Where could I read how to configure it?
