In-Reply-To: <87u1ewlehw.fsf@emacswiki.org> (message from Alex Schroeder on Sat, 22 Feb 2003 12:51:55 +0100)

I am confused.  jas@extundo.com says that 

    Emacs includes a package for sending your mail to a SMTP server
    [an MTA] ...

but Alex Schroeder <alex@emacswiki.org> writes also of needing an MTA
to receive email.  It sounds that Emacs provides an MTA only for
sending email.

Does Emacs always need to use the non-Emacs MTA on your local system
to receive email, but provides you with the choice of using either the
non-Emacs MTA on your local system to send email or of using the MTA
that come with Emacs?
