Virtual Mail Hosting in a Single Inbox
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

<P><STRONG>
Dear Sir
</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>
I am basicaly trying to host a domain and have all the emails of
the users of this domain (<tt>remotedomain.com</tt>) sent to one particular
mailbox (such as <tt>remotedomain@myisp.net</tt>) This is straigh forward.
Assuming that the remote domain machine (LINUX) polls the ISP
server.  What is the procedure to use to retrieve this mail and
distribute it the respective mailboxes of the users mail boxes.
Waiting for your reply.
</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>
Thank you.
</STRONG></P>

Personally I despise this method of virtual
mail hosting, and I won't do it to my friends and
customer (nor would I let an ISP do it to me).

However, you can read the Fetchmail FAQ for
too much information on this.
