I have made the changes as suggested with the full email address and I am still having error messages:

"helpd...@ticket.co.it" instead of just "helpdesk" most servers wont auth without the full email address anymore. -Matt On 06/22/2012 2:22 PM, Borngunners wrote: set daemon 60 set invisible set no bouncemail set no syslog set logfile /var/log/fetchmail.log poll mailserver.ticket.co.it protocol pop3 username "helpdesk" password "********" mda "/usr/bin/rt-mailgate --queue general --action correspond --$ -----Original Message----- From: 20/20 Lab <l...@pacbell.net> To: rt-users <rt-users@lists.bestpractical.com> Sent: Fri, Jun 22, 2012 4:21 pm Subject: Re: [rt-users] Fetchmail AuthFail On 06/22/2012 8:49 AM, Borngunners wrote: fetchmail: Query status=3 (AUTHFAIL) fetchmail: Warning: the connection is insecure, continuing anyways.

Most common problem with this error is the lack of single quotes (') around the email address and password. -Matt
