I've looked at the man pages and through the help files for sendmail. I'm now very confused. I can dial in using ppp to my isp and ping my pop server and my smtp server but have no idea what the next step to get my e-mail from the account onto my machine is. If anyone can offer a quick guide to how to get and send e-mail over the web then I'd be very greatful. I don't have static IP address from my ISP either, is this a major problem?
