Then I really don't know why the mail list does not accept this mail.
I thought seagate.kei is not registered on the internet.
The mail list checks that up and rejects it.
While yha.att.ne.jp thinks it is strange because it differs from the
name ppp accounts gave, namely 29.gate6.yokohama.att.ne.jp, for
example, it still accepts.

I actually use fetchmail to download an ISP mail account to local
spool file. Then use the local spool file to read a mail in this way I
don't have to online to read a mail. The solution I come up with is to
symbolic link INBOX to a new spool file whose name corresponds to new
local mail account. But this solution is affected by the panic event
that the file is erased. The solution should be to use fetchmail to
respool the file which is used solely by VM.

Kei.
