The  "mutt-way"  of  doing  it  is  to have  a  mail  fetching  thingy
(fetchmail), (an optional) mail filtering thingy (procmail) and a mail
client (mutt).

Can i use sendmail instead of fetchmail. Since its already running in
my system. AFAIK sendmail is also used to fetch mail. Or is there any
benefit of using fetchmail.

thank you,
