It will be possible to do this using the telephone line? To create a
virt=
ual server in my PC and to deceive mailstation making him think
that mail.=
mymailstation.com is the server

I wonder if or when Earthlink will abandon this URL? Might be worth grabbing
if it becomes available. Should be able to renew it for $8 per year.

are:
- PC with modem and phone line
- Software for dial-in TCP/IP access, so the PC can accept the call
from the Mailstation
- DHCP service on the PC, to give out IP address to Mailstation
- DNS on PC, to respond to the Mailstation's request for name
resolution of "mail.mymailstation.com"
- SMTP on PC, to accept mail
- POP3 on PC, to hand mail to mailstation
- remailler software on PC, to send/receive email with the rest of the
Internet, and also to re-write the headers so that the mail can come
and go.
This would be, in my opinion, easiest to set up with Linux, but it
should be possible to do it with Windows. I seem to recall, in the
early days of the group, a report of someone actually doing this, but
efforts since have been focused on finding ways to change the settings
in the Mailstation, or to re-program the Mailstation.

With Windows 2000 an newer you should everthing except
the mail server and forwarder by configuring incoming
connections.
I have been trying to do something similar on linux,
but I am having trouble to get "bind" (the linux dns
service) configured like I want.

the posts on linux-hacker.net is to point towards your own DNS server
software, which can hand out IP addresses for the POP3 and SMTP server
names, which point to your own server.

I am trying to do that now with a Compaq Clipper and
Debian Linux. You need a dhcp server to assign an IP,
a ppp server to make the connection and bind (dns
server) to fool the Clipper into thinking it's on the
internet.
So far I have got the bind configuration just right.

In these pages and the forum I found examples of those who have
tried to m=

it, if somebody=
could make a tutorial step by step. For example
that distribution, that =
packages and that configuration is special
is used.

You have to load on the Apache Linux Server software onto that computer.
You are looking at around $ 500. if you buy it, or get it "Free" on the
Internet, but then YOU have to load and configure it yourself !!!
The Apache server has the mail server in it. www.apache.org

you will also need to install bind9 (the dns server),
dhcpd and ppp. Configuring these on linux is a lot
esier if you install Webmin.
PPP makes the connection.
dhcp assigns an IP sddress
bind9 is the Domain Name Service
Webmin is a web based system configuration utility.
The idea is to configure Bind9 as a master server and
map you mailservice name to you server ip.
