I had a similar problem with smail. I got around it by using specifying
a MDA in .fetchmailrc.

Hoping someone might know the answer to this...
Last week I upgraded my 2.0 debian system up to 2.1. fetchmail is now
barfing. The output I get is:
X message(s) for jgreshes at pop3.netaxs.com (X octets)
reading message 1 of X (X octets) fetchmail: SMTP listener doesn't like

Hi,
My fetchmail has been working fine up till now.
The fetchmail log saids:
#fetchmail: SMTP>. (EOM)
fetchmail: SMTP< 250 OK id=10lWJV-Mk-00^Mfetchmail: flushed
fetchmail: POP3> DELE 1^Mfetchmail: POP3< +OK

I just added "sleep 15s" to my /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/local just above the line that
calls fetchmail and it looks as though perhaps that did the trick. I did grab
mail that time.

In debian you are supposed to put scripts which you want run when
connecting in '/etc/ppp/ip-up.d'. Also, make sure the permssions are correct

Andrew,
I believe you can put set daemon 600 in your .fetchmailrc, and it will
do the same thing.

Unsubscribe? mail -
I'm trying to set up fetchmail and have been pulling my hair out
because the program doesn't seem to be acting like how the docs and
manpage says it should.
I want to run fetchmail in a daemon mode, so I created a script in
/etc/init.d with the proper format which calls fetchmail as:

I have a multi-drop mailbox at my ISP that I pull mail from. We have about
30 users on this end that mail from this box gets distrubuted to.

Thanks. The ":" came from the fetchmail man page and I
wasn't really clear on if/where it should get used. I'd
