Moreover I do not have root access to it. The way I use email usually is to ssh some machine in the NIS domain and use some text based MUA like Pine. Is there any way I can send and receive email via the NIS domain from this machine using GNU Emacs Rmail? I discovered rmail-extras.el from the EmacsWiki that gets me my mail by ftping some machine in the NIS domain. But I couldn't figure out how to send mail. Could someone help? -- Girish Kulkarni - Allahabad, India - http://girish.50webs.com
