The tarball on e> http://fetchmail.berlios.de/ has a fetchmailconf.py that it calls I tried to run the fetchmailconf script on my RHEL5 system and it failed with tk errors. I saw somewhere on the Red Hat site where they explicitly indicated that they had removed fetchmailconf from their RHEL distribution--actually, from their Fetchmail RPM. I searched Red Hat's RPM packages and fetchmailconf does not show up. In any event, I'll look into the other programs people suggested. But since I am at least a little familiar with fetchmail already; and because someone mentioned that getmail's syntax is more difficult to learn than fetchmail's, I'll most likely stick to fetchmail unless I run into a problem. Once again, thanks to all for their helpful suggestions. Happy Holidays, -- Mun
