[Nottingham] Mail Routing

[.waffle]

After spending hours reading docs on EVERY available mail package (well,
three of each of MDA and MTA) I'm now au fait with it all, and thanks to
help from this group, I now have a working mail server! Woohoo!

Thanks a lot to all who've helped!

| Fetchmail is normally configured to download from POP3 mailbox to the

| mailbox generally.  The IMAP server offers mail stored in the system
| mailboxes (or stored in user mail folders).  You can almost certainly
