I set up an RH 7.3 box with FETCHMAIL/PROCMAIL/SENDMAIL/IMAP and SAMBA
for a file server/mail server for a client. The client accesses the
internet via ADSL on a Win2k box that "shares" the connection with the
rest of the internal network. The machines on the "internal" network
have the basic 192.168.0.0 addressing set. No problems there. The
problem is, though, that when using fetchmail, I'm consistently stuck
getting an errorcode of 7 - fetchmail timeout waiting for response from
the server. I've changed the timeout values, I've changed the batch size
limit, and just about everything else, but still get the constant
timeout error code.

Is there any way around this, or is it possibly a problem with the ISP
from whence the mail originates?

I've used this same setup for several other sites, but have not hit a
wall like this until now.

Any nice words are appreciated.

I recognize terror as the finest emotion and so I will try to terrorize the
reader.  But if I find that I cannot terrify, I will try to horrify, and if
I find that I cannot horrify, I'll go for the gross-out.
