All,
It might help if you put a subject in your initial mail to the list
server. I've just been to the archives to check what Graham's post
actually said - there are an awful lot of Glastonbury - no subject
type posts there.
Graham: You are running Linux on your machine. Some questions:
Is your machine using dial-up to Freeserve?
Is your son's machine networked to yours (or is your son dialling
up separately to Freeserve/whatever) ?
Potential solution #1:
The scenario which might work is:
Your machine - runs fetchmail to pull _in_ from Freeserve, exim/Postfix
to send _out_ via the Freeserve SMTP host, procmail to sort mail
between you and your son, pop3 server for your son's Windows
machine.

His machine runs Outlook Express - but uses _your_ machine as its
mail host.
Put in some basic info to the list, and we'll go from there :)

Graham for Graeme throughout.
