(no X stuff) `no X stuff' means Netscape's out. Try the popclient port. Go to http://www.freebsd.org/ports/mail.html and look for `popclient-3.0b6'. It's a command-line pop2 and pop3 client. Works great. I've been using it on my FreeBSD box at home for months now. ---- Brian Clapper .............................................. bmc@telebase.com http://www.netaxs.com/~bmc/ .............
