You don't actually have a user on your local machine named pcr387, do you? You need to tell fetchmail to deliver mail to your username, 'david'. So your fetchmail stuff should look something like: poll hecky.acns.nwu.edu proto POP3 user pcr387 pass [secret] is david here Note the 'is david here' line. That's what tells fetchmail where to who gets the mail on the local machine. Give that a try and see if the error goes away.
