I have read many posts about setting up mail servers to send/receive emails. Personally I just use Netscape to send and receive all my emails.

My question is would a mail server need to be setup for a normal user like me?

This has really got me baffled :oops: , so I would appreciate it if you could enlighten me.

Thanks.

If you have to ask that question, then the answer is most likely no. People who setup mailservers for personal use usually have a reason. If you can use your ISP's SMTP mailservers, just use those.
