[comp.windows.x] Xmail over NET...

sergio@ingres.com (Sergio L Aponte) (06/20/91)

	Just downloaded Xmail from X.sources, but I wonder if this is possible.

	I receive all email on machine S, but my workstation is machine C.
	Machine S has no X, so I can't compile xmail there and re-direct the
	display.

	Is there a way to run Xmail against the node S mail spool file from
	my workstation?

	Just wondering...

One solution I can think of is to mount your /usr/spool/mail using NFS.

Cheers,
