If you're willing to use fetchmail, you don't necessarily also need an
additional MTA installation -- just point fetchmail at slocal directly.
I used something like the following stanza in .fetchmailrc for years:
poll po12.mit.edu no dns proto imap user y mda "/usr/local/bin/slocal
-verbose"
I included the quotes for the `-verbose', which I included because I
liked seeing the slocal output (where it filed things) in the logs.
Many [n]mh users fetchmail into procmail instead, so they can use an
advanced spam filter. I just added spam detection rules directly to my
.maildelivery file (less powerful, but simpler).

I want to run nmh on my laptop but I don't have an MTA installed.
Using inc to get email from my two POP accounts works just fine but I
would prefer to run everything through slocal so that I can filter it.
Is there a way to do this without installing an MTA and then using
something like fetchmail to grab from the POP accounts?
Thanks,
Matt
