I already have fetchmail istalled as well as popper.... Thats not the issue
. I have mail from my ISP forwarded to my user account on my domain. so no
need for fetchmail and popper.
befor i tried this ...all was working great ..I have squirrel mail (
webmail) istalled w/ IMAP  and ive been getting my mail that way ...I havent
had to use fetchmail & popper for some time now.
So befor i did this i had:
sendmail
squirrelmail
IMAP
all working great ..
is there a decent "howto" on converting from sendmail to postfix ?

thanx
b
