I use the different addresses to create some anonymity and also
keep things separated (different addresses for different things that
I do/am interested in - - - that kind of thing) - - - - I can be found
just using my first name - - - - which is great if you like a 5' dia
target on your butt but if you don't - - - - well - - - its just no fun!!!!

The is where I really don't know squat about what I need to do.

So besides claws I will need to set up fetchmail and procmail - - - do I
understand that correctly?

If I set up a hosted domain will I be able to set that up as an email
recipient (group) for my addresses?

Sorry - - - I just beat these things to death (lots of fun that!) but have
only started my 'peeking' under the hood!

Thanks for the ideas!!!
