Hi All,
I have quite a neat system set up with my email. Fetchmail downloads it via
POP3 from ISP (evil telstra). Dovcote Imap along with squirrelmail allow me
to access my email (nicely filtered and sorted) over the net.
Problem:
I can't send email using this system. I have to use a work around from KMail
(set up like I had it before all this, just simple POP3 client). This means I
can't send emails from my computer over the net. I think port 25 is blocked,
so It needs to take the email (which does appear in the sent folder) and then
pump it up to the ISP with SMTP. Seems to be plenty of people saying that is
what needs to happen, but no one who is willing to explain how that actually
works, with any recent setup.
Any ideas?
cheers
Jon
