Polling every 10 sec's is rude behaviour towards your i.s.p. .. Don't do that. The command: fetchmail --version Will show all your options set in your .fetchmailrc and if they are accepted by fetchmail.. A rather typical ~/.fetchmailrc poll pop.myisp1.nl proto POP3 username president password UsCliNton mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d clinton" set logfile "/var/log/fetch.log" Of course every command listed in your .fetchmailrc can be given on the command-line as options to fetchmail.
