The way I read it fetchmail is working fine as is your IPS's POP3 daemon. The problem is with SMTP at your end. Do you have an entry in /etc/inetd.conf like:- smtp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.smtpd What happens when you telnet to localhost 25? Check that localhost resolves to 127.0.0.1.
