I would like some suggestions on which programs to use and then a starting point to get me going. Like I said, I've tried several things, but nothing is working - so I'm back to the starting point and just need some pointers. Ex: Use Postfix to receive mail Use Courier-imap to view mail from OE on a windows machine If this above is a good configuration, then where can I go to get detailed installation instructions on how to set those program up?

Which dead-end? What is your problem? Do you simply need to receive these emails, or do you also desire to scan and process them for spam and virii? You're going to need to provide more information and detail, and we'll surely be able to help you. Cheers, -- Rodolfo J.
