I am perplexed here. Pop seems to be working. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ fetchmail -c Enter password for [EMAIL PROTECTED]: fetchmail: 5.9.6 querying pop.washcoll.edu (protocol POP3) at Tue Jan 29 01:21:08 2002: poll started fetchmail: POP3< +OK BlitzMail POP3 Server Ready. fetchmail: POP3> USER ted.knab fetchmail: POP3< +OK Please send PASS command. fetchmail: POP3> PASS * fetchmail: POP3< +OK You are signed on as Ted Knab fetchmail: POP3> STAT fetchmail: POP3< +OK 125 1532472 fetchmail: POP3> LAST fetchmail: POP3< +OK 0 125 messages for ted.knab at pop.washcoll.edu (1532472 octets). fetchmail: POP3> QUIT fetchmail: POP3< +OK fetchmail: 5.9.6 querying pop.washcoll.edu (protocol POP3) at Tue Jan 29 01:21:11 2002: poll completed fetchmail: normal termination, status 0
