Is there a way to set up an alias file for this combination.  Because all I
need is something that can access my pop account and send anything from
that (I have mailmapping set on my host name) to my username on my local
machine and then use their SMTP server.  If this is possible please send me
some instructions.  I was told previously that I needed to get sendmail
configured to use POPclient.  I already have both pine and POPclient
downloaded ungunzip'd and ready to be untar'd and put into use I just don't
know where I need to place the files from the tar'd archive they just get
dumped in the same directory and there isn't much help in way of manuals on
setting up alias's without using sendmail.

Thanks,
Albert
