Hello everyone,

I'm sorry if it could be a bit OT.

I've just configured mutt and fetchmail to receive mail under ubuntu and I
used nbsmtp to send mail using mutt as well.
After that when I tried to retrieve the messages with fetchmail, it gave me
a problem and it said that it can't connect
To 127.0.0.1/25 and it said that it couldn't find the smtp server in
localhost.
Do you know which could be the problem?
Could it depend on firewall?
or should I install other packages?

At the end, can you give me another advice to handle(send and receive) mail
under ubuntu in text-mode?
I'm really looking for an application that has all the functions to send and
receive mails all included on it.
Do you have any idea?

Thanks for all information
Best regards, Sauro
