Receiving and sending mails with multiple accounts</A>
</H1>
My system is running under Linux SuSE 7.1 with firewall, masquerading
and ISDN-dial-up connection (nothing of that will be described
below).  It was a quite lot of work to get all
components accordingly running for doing the job they are intended to
do.

<P>
First of all, lets have a look at the big picture -- the real thing
and my requirements are:

<UL>
<LI>I have several E-Mail accounts at different providers with different
access behaviours.
</LI>
<LI>I am a subscriber of multiple mailing-list and want
to sort this traffic out of common E-Mailing. 
</LI>
<LI>I want to assure only using <B>one</B> <I>Mail-User-Agent</I>
  during daily work, managing all different mail-accounts.
</LI>
<LI>I want to use a <I>MUA</I> doing some PGP-stuff automatically.
</LI>
</UL>
In short, I want to receive mails from different E-Mail providers,
manage the mail within one application and send out mails via
different providers. Especially the last point is under LINUX a
big obstacle, because of being a native server system it seems to be
no way to go outside with different <I>faces</I>.
<BR>
Solving this leads me towards the following bunch of applications
building my working environment:

<OL>
<LI><B>Mail-Transport-Agent</B> (MTA) <I>MasqMail</I>
</LI>
<LI><B>Mail-User-Agent</B> (MUA) <I>mutt</I>
</LI>
<LI><B>Mail-Delivery-Agent</B> <I>procmail</I>
</LI>
</OL>
