Hi,
Yesterday I upgraded my debian to testing. I am now facing problems with
picking the mails using fetchmail. Fetchmail keeps on telling that I do
not have any messages whereas some other client like poppy shows
otherwise. I have attached a session script below:
************************

What is the problem? I said no to start fetchmail as root. There is no
/etc/fetchmailrc. But I have on in my $HOME. The above session is with
that file.
Can somebody tell me where I am erring? Thanks for any help/pointers.
I have a couple of more problems after the upgrade and will be back with
them, but _only after_ I get the fetchmail issue sorted out.
