I have a second machine functioning as a fileserver called "norwich". It is generating system emails, but how do I access them using gnus please? I've looked at the gnus manual and this seemed to fit - =2D-8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (setq mail-sources '((pop :server "norwich" :user "boztu"))) =2D-8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- except its not a pop server.
