Dear Eric, Thanks for the continuous help. I have relaxed chkuser in the way that it will not check mails from certain servers. Apart from this issue there is no problem at all. Tomorrow i shall have a try on this fetchmail setting. I shall update if worked properly. Mean while, if there is any way to handle this with fetchmail please advise me.
