I don't think your problem is with fetchmail, but with whatever is waiting on port 25 to receive the post from fetchmail. Sendmail/Exim/Postfix usually lurk there to receive the goods. Which MTA are you running? What do you get if you do $telnet localhost 25 ? I run postfix and get... Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. 220 glynthebearded.localdomain ESMTP Exim 3.12 #1 Mon, 11 Dec 2000 07:18:53 +0000 You should get something similar if the MTA is set up properly.
