That I'm not sure (smile). > I think 'G' is not bound by default in Mutt. IIRC it is bound by default : at least, it's always worked before. > How did you set it up in your .muttrc ? set pop_host="pop.<ISP>" set pop_pass="<password>" set pop_user="<username>" set pop_last Fetchmail is run as a user cron job. It was last emerged in 2020. The cron jobs are running as before, but nothing is downloaded. .muttrc hasn't been changed since 2020. It does appear that it is in fact more convenient to use Fetchmail directly. Instead of having to check several folders for new mail, I can issue the command (aliased as 'fm') when I decide to check mail & it actually tells me how many it's downloading, so if there's nothing, I don't have to do anything else. However, it wb helpful to find out what has gone wrong. It must be some pkg I updated since 210220. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
