Thank you for your reply. The commands systemctl stop fetchmail.service systemctl disable fetchmail.service doesn't work. I had tried them before sending my message. I had tried sudo kill -9 ... without success either. Finally I purged and reinstalled fetchmail and now : ps ax | grep fetchmail 3566 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto fetchmail no more daemons in the background and I can load my posts with fetchmail. (in Bookworm) The problem is that I don't know how to fix the problem if it starts again without purging the package :( -- Gerard ____________________________ **************************** Created with Mutt 2.2.6-1 under Debian Linux BOOKWORM ****************************
