- No ideas. Can't be done. Well, not really.

- You log onto Demon using your node "fieldv", when you've successfully logged
- on Demon's SMTP server attempts a connection to your SMTP daemon, and if it
- finds it downloads the mail.
-
- You could connect your two computers and use some sort of Local Network to
- send the mail to the other machine.
-
- Or you could write a script to send mail for the other user back to Demon
- so that it is retrieved next time round. A bit silly IMO.
-
- The key thing is "I have AN account..". One account, ONE username. You
- are only allowed one interface to be connected to Demon, but I'm sure you
- know that, right?
