Hi, Over the last couple of weeks I have been building a mail server for my house. All my email is currently managed by my ISP which doesn't offer secure POP3, shell accounts or an easy way to create mailing lists. Originally, I had planned on having my ISP point the mx entry for my domain at my home server (on AT&T "broadband"). However, due to all the problems that people have had with "broadband" ISP's blocking ports, I was thinking that I would rather set up a general mailbox on my web-hosting ISP (xeran.com) and then setup a program like fetchmail to pop that one mailbox and deliver the mail to separate accounts on my mail server at home. Is this possible????? IE. Email for jon, bill, and ed all end up at bigbox at xeran.com and then I pop bigbox and deliver the mail to jon at home, bill at home and ed at home The mail server that I built is a Redhat 7.3 box with Postfix, Apache, Courier Imap, Squirrel Mail, and Mailman. Thanks, Jon P.S. When is the term analog going to be cool again? Is digital going to become out dated? Is baseband going to be the next big marketing buzzword?
