Re: MS Mail.

[Kyle Burton <mortis@voicenet.com>]

I've been using fetchmail to retreive it from the POP port of our
Exchange server at Roenbluth...

This is the basic command: 

  fetchmail -u username -p pop3 server_name_or_ip -K -d 60

You can do most of this (including putting your password) into
the fetchmail conf file -- see the manpage for fetchmail for more 
details.  It's pretty easy as long as they allow you to use POP.

Sending mail should'nt be as much of an issue -- you can dump to the
exchange machine's SMTP port, or to anyone elses...if you've got a valid
dns entry, you should be able to use an MTA right from your box...
