KMail - can I collect mail from machine on LAN?

[Randy]

Hello Paul,
    I use fetchmail, and have been since redhat 9.  I'm running FC3 
now.  Fetchmail starts up at predefined intervals (for me, 2 hours) and 
grabs all mail from my internet mail account.  It also preserves the header 
information, so anything I retrieve from the pop server in the basement 
looks like it came from my internet mail account.  (this is another option 
you can change).  I have Eudora set up to grab mail from the internet and 
from my pop server in the basement.  It is all pretty much invisible from 
Windows, except that my mail account seems much larger than it is, and 
downloads faster.  :-)
