[PLUG] E-Mail Question

[paul.m.kuliniewicz.1]

What do I need to do to be able to access my two e-mail accounts from
my Linux box?  One of them is my Purdue account, which uses IMAP (as
you already know).  The other one I have is a POP3 account.  I need to
be able to read and send mail from each of these accounts, but I'm lost
as to what I need to do to accomplish this.  It seems as though I need
to set up a MTA on my machine to do the forwarding, but I don't know
how to configure one for two different accounts using two different
protocols, and to be able to select which outbound message heads for
which one.

I'm running Debian unstable, and I already have mutt (the mail reader)
and exim (MTA?) installed.  Can I do this with exim, or do I need to
install sendmail instead?  And what basic configuration do I need to
do with whichever MTA I use?

Thanks in advance.  I tried looking through some man pages, but I'm
completely lost.  Once I get this done, I shouldn't need to reboot to
Windows except to play a few games.
