I found how to send a mail using the mail command, filled in subject, message text and then terminated with single dot (did not get prompted for CC btw .update. there is a .mailrc file to be created
Quote:
``set askcc'' enables the askcc feature
) and off it went.
here is some header information:

Please correct me if I miss something:
the emailaddress is stitched together from <user>lives on this machine <domain>written into postfix's main.cf.
not being online 24/7, can I make this work without setting up the email in my domain? I can setup a unix account at my host - maybe that is the way to go ... I really wish one of the unix.com gurus was here in Cairns - we would have a nice flat white next sunday (31celsius) and set the thing up _bulletproof_. Merry christmas from here.
