  What advantages are there to getmail?  I've run fetchmail 
 successfully in daemon mode, with the only problem being that it doesn't
 always download all the messages in one shot.  I'm not a big advocate
 of it, however, it just works ok for me.  I may play around with getmail
 to see if it's better for me with regards to the download issue.

I'm not much of an expert, but here's an excerpt from the getmail FAQ:

 Why did you write getmail? Why not just use fetchmail?
 
Short answer: ... well, the short answer is mostly unprintable. The long
answer is ... well, long:
 
I do not like some of the design choices which were made with fetchmail.
getmail does things a little differently, and for my purposes, better. In
addition, most people find getmail easier to configure and use than
fetchmail. Perhaps most importantly, getmail goes to great lengths to
ensure that mail is never lost, while fetchmail (in its default
configuration) frequently loses mail, causes mail loops, bounces
legitimate messages, and causes many other problems.
 
When people have pointed out problems in fetchmail's design and
implementation, it's maintainer has frequently ignored them, or (worse
yet) gone in the completely wrong direction in the name of fixing the
problems. For instance, fetchmail's configuration file syntax has been
criticized as being needlessly difficult to write; instead of cleaning up
the syntax, the maintainer instead included a GUI
configuration-file-writing program, leading to comments like:
 
  The punchline is that fetchmail sucks, even if it does have
  giddily-engineered whizbang configurator apps.

  As an example, Dan Bernstein, author of qmail and other software packages,
once noted to the qmail list:
 
  Last night, [EMAIL PROTECTED] reinjected thirty old messages from
  various authors to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
  This sort of idiocy happens much more often than most subscribers know,
  thanks to a broken piece of software by Eric Raymond called fetchmail.
  Fortunately, qmail and ezmlm have loop-prevention mechanisms that stop
  these messages before they are distributed to subscribers. The messages
  end up bouncing to the wrong place, thanks to another fetchmail bug, but
  at least the mailing list is protected.
 
  --D. J. Bernstein
 
The maintainer also ignored dozens of complaints about fetchmail's
behaviour, stating (by fiat) that fetchmail was bug-free and had entered
maintenance mode, allowing him to ignore further bug reports.
 
fetchmail's default configuration values frequently cause lost or
misdirected mail, and seem to be chosen to cause maximum pain and
inconvenience. From fetchmail's to-do file (emphasis mine):

Maybe refuse multidrop configuration unless envelope is _explicitly_
  configured ... This would prevent a significant class of
  shoot-self-in-foot problems.
 
  perhaps treat a delivery as temporarily failed ... This is so you
  don't lose mail if you configure the wrong envelope header.
 
fetchmail is famous for mangling messages it retrieves, rather than
leaving them alone as a mail-handling program should. getmail will add
trace information to messages (so you can see what happened, and when),
but will otherwise leave message content alone.
 
In addition, fetchmail has a long history of security problems:
 
  * versions released before 20 June 2001 contain a buffer overflow, which
can be remotely exploited (see www.securityfocus.com/bid/2877 for
details). getmail is not vulnerable to buffer overflows, because
buffers in Python are dynamically sized.
  * Another remotely-exploitable security hole discovered in fetchmail in
June 2002; versions prior to 5.9.10 (released in June 2002) are
exploitable .
  * Reading fetchmail's UPDATES file, it appears that another security
problem was fixed in 5.9.12, where a server could crash fetchmail on
64-bit platforms. Also worrying is a mention that it includes a fix
for password shrouding.
  * Another remotely-exploitable security hole in fetchmail discovered in
September 2002; this hole lets an attacker run arbitrary code on the
victim's computer.
  * Another remotely-exploitable security hole in fetchmail discovered in
December 2002; once again, a remote attacker can run arbitrary code on
the machine running fetchmail in its default configuration. See this
advisory for details.
  * January 2003: More buffer overflows in fetchmail let attackers run
arbitrary code .
  * October 2003: Anyone can cause fetchmail to crash by sending you

Yes. On most peoples' systems there's only a fistful of anyway.

 All that is telling you that it DID do it oopsie. I want something that

I agree that something that actually works is better; I just mean that
monit could restart fetchmail for you if it dies.

 
 Not to be glib here, but look who writes fetchmail... the self
 proscribed bestestest programmer in the world. This is the best example
 of a program he writes to preach to the whole world?

Hey, I'm aware of this issue; look at the long excerpt from the getmail
FAQ I quoted elsewhere in this thread. That's why I use getmail.
[Although to be fair, I don't know enough to judge whether that
indictment of fetchmail is fair; I haven't seen Eric Raymond's

 I can do as good, with shell. I have in some instances.

I can't, but with some more work on my mad perl skillz, maybe I'll also

 Getmail can do something like this (I'm not sure if this is exactly
 what you want). From the configuration documentation:
 
The optional options section of the rc file can be used to alter
getmail's default behaviour. The parameters supported in this
section are as follows:
 
 [snip]
 
  * delete_after (integer) -- if set, getmail will delete messages
this number of days after first seeing them, if they have been
retrieved and delivered. This, in effect, leaves messages on
the server for a configurable number of days after retrieving
them. Note that the delete parameter has higher priority; if
both are set, the messages will be deleted immediately.
Default: 0, which means not to enable this feature.
 
 HTH,
 Celejar
 
 

 Thanks, that's exactly what I want to do.  I sometimes access my
home email while at work via the web interface, and if my wife or kids
are at home using the computer, fetchmail may download and delete it.
Or I could download it at night and not have time to respond.  I know
that I could set fetchmail to not delete the messages and do it
manually from the web interface, but I'd rather not do it that way.

 I hadn't seen a way to do this delayed deletion easily with
fetchmail, although I may not have looked thoroughly.

True.  However, his earlier point about fetchmail's daemon functionality
reinventing cron is quite strong.  If it is not waiting for anything
incoming, there is really not a good reason for it to implement its own
daemon functionality.

No, really.  POP, being the Post Office Protocol, is not designed to

 I realize that this is not the usual way to use a POP server.
However, in my limited understanding of the protocol, the server doesn't
delete the message until requested to do so by the client, so it should
be an easy addition to the code to delete after some delay. I'd even
thought of doing this myself in my (sorely lacking) spare time.
Apparently getmail has already done it.

Run it as a cronjob as a job as your user. It will work. You just need

ANYTIME I've run fetchmail as a system daemon it dies sooner or later.
Usually sooner. Or even better yet it stalls. never more to retrieve

I've always setup fetchmail to run as a cronjob every 10-30 minutes
depending on you tastes. Any more often than 10 minutes runs the risk of
colliding with another previous instance.

 Is this typical of other users' experience?  I've been running
fetchmail as a daemon on my home box, with a size limit and a time
interval of 15 minutes.  It quite often stops before downloading all
the messages.  I've run it in verbose mode and logged the output; it
ends with a message something like Client/server protocol error.
I've never taken the time to investigate it further, as it continues
downloading at the next designated time.

 In what way is it better as a cron job?  I'll change the setup
if there are advantages to it.

  Usually sooner. Or even better yet it stalls. never more to retrieve
  mail.
  
 
  Is this typical of other users' experience?  I've been running
 fetchmail as a daemon on my home box, with a size limit and a time
 interval of 15 minutes.  It quite often stops before downloading all
 the messages.  I've run it in verbose mode and logged the output; it
 ends with a message something like Client/server protocol error.
 I've never taken the time to investigate it further, as it continues
 downloading at the next designated time.
 
  In what way is it better as a cron job?  I'll change the setup
 if there are advantages to it.

The daemon mode has runaway and stalling modes. At least it did last
time I tried it. Plus sometimes it doesn't even start.

Running it as a cron job is best. I've only had problems with it when
the ISPs pop3 server is down, or the internet connection is down.

Best part is, it tells you when it cannot reach the pickup point and
when it resumes being able to. It kid of gives me a way to guage when my
Internet connection is down and I can back bill comcast.

If you think about it, every boot after the very first is technically a
reboot.  The interval might vary, but it would be a reboot nonetheless.

 Sorry, but running fetchmail as a daemon is the worst possible way to

 Run it as a cronjob as a job as your user. It will work. You just need
 to setup your .fetchmailrc properly.
 
 ANYTIME I've run fetchmail as a system daemon it dies sooner or later.
 Usually sooner. Or even better yet it stalls. never more to retrieve

 I've always setup fetchmail to run as a cronjob every 10-30 minutes
 depending on you tastes. Any more often than 10 minutes runs the risk of
 colliding with another previous instance.

I use getmail, which is not even designed to run as a daemon. From the FAQ:

 How do I run getmail in daemon mode?
 
Use your system's cron utility to run getmail periodically if you wish to
have mail retrieved automatically at intervals. This is precisely what
cron is designed to do; there's no need to add special code to getmail to
do this.
 
With a reasonably standard system cron utility, a crontab(5) entry like
the following will make getmail retrieve mail every hour:
 
  0 * * * * /usr/local/bin/getmail --quiet

Not knowing that other people also run fetchmail from cron, I also
configured fetchmail it to run from cron for each of 3 users on my

 I don't think so.  I think fetchmail can be configured to deliver

 Possibly.  You can use ssmtp.  For exim, however, you will need to wait

 about it, as I use postfix on all my machines.

Check out the (virtual) package 'mail-transport-agent' and you'll see

smtp is a push system. it has to go out and find the machine where you
want to send mail. this doesn't really work with a laptop or other
mobile situation as the destination keeps changing. I don't remember
the exact situation you were in, but what you have going now is
probably the most efficient one you could have. next step up for
convenience would be to setup IMAP and/or webmail.

Ca peut se produire dans plusieurs cas:
soit le nom d'hote du certificat est différent du nom de la machine,
soit le DNS renvoie une adresse correspondant à un autre domaine,
soit la config est incorrecte (fetchmailrc est très sensible aux espaces
et à la syntaxe)
Au vu des adresses IP, il semble bien que l'un héberge l'autre:
pop.freesurf.fr  = 212.43.206.50, 
pop.fr.clara.net = 212.43.194.89 et 212.43.194.88

la syntaxe de récupération devrait être qq chose comme (en 1 ligne),
si on prend, par exemple, l'adresse email [EMAIL PROTECTED] avec
le mot de passe secret, et que ton nom d'utilisateur local est
nanard:

poll pop.freesurf.fr proto POP3 timeout 80 
   user bernard has password secret is nanard here fetchall

De toute façon, c'est juste un avertissement, et ça n'empêche
pas fetchmail de récupérer tes emails.

  Tout à fait, le pb ne vient certainement pas de là.

Oui, moi aussi, plusieurs semaines.

 en POP (une dizaine) et il y en a toujours entre 3 et 4 qui échouent !
 Ca semble coller avec l'info de 6 connexions maxi.

Oui, mais non, dans mon cas, en tout cas, la récupération des mails se
fait séquentiellement.

 
 Je récupère avec Kmail, et si je récupère compte après compte, ça fonctionne 
 sans soucis.

. Il y a peut-être un délai entre les comptes... Cela dit, j'en
doute vraiment car souvent, le premier compte free refuse d'entrée la
connexion (et c'est celui qui est abonné à la liste, pas très pratique
!)

  Tu peux essayer d'augmenter le delai (timeout) dans ton .fetchmailrc :
 
 poll pop.free.fr with proto POP3 timeout 200
 user 'ton_login' there with pass 'ton_passwd' is 'toi' here options
 fetchall
 
  perso j'utilise un timeout de 80 sur pop.free.fr

J'ai laissé un timeout de 200, rien n'y fait.

Non, je n'utilise pas ça (j'avais vu des options pour sendmail, mais

Sinon, comme me l'a dit une personne sur la liste il y a quelques jours,

Rozumiem, że używasz protokołu POP3 (inaczej 'uidl' by nie zadziałało). 
Zatem -- nie da się, ten protokół nie przewiduje istnienia czegoś

 Saludos.

En el cron tengo puesto lo siguiente:
*/10 *  * * *   fetchmail -t 120  /dev/null 21

Lo que hace es ejecutarse cada 10 minutos la instrucción de fetchmail
Así mismo lo he puesto desde el usuario vsantos mediante 
crontab -e

y en fetchmail tengo puesto lo siguiente:

set postmaster vsantos
set bouncemail
set no spambounce
set properties 

poll pop.wanadoo.es
 usert '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' there with password 'xx' is 'vsantos' here

Cuando ejecuto manualmente el fetchmail, lo realizo como usuario vsantos

Con respecto al log, aqui te pongo más o menos lo que veo:

to=[EMAIL PROTECTED], orig=vsantos, relay=none,
delay=349243, delays=349246/0.22/0.31/0, dns=4.4.1. status=deferred,
(connect to vctrsnts.dyndns.org: connect refused)

Y asi unas cuantas veces. Me parece que esta es la linea de log de
cuando se ejecuta el cron

Gracias por todo

1. Qué hay en el archivo /etc/mailname?
2. Asegurate de tener permit_mynetworks en smtpd_recipient_restrictions.
3. Prueba mynetworks dejándolo en blanco asi te detecta no sólamente el
localhost, sino también la ip externa que apunta a tu servidor.

Problemas con Postifx, Fetchmail, etc...

2006-10-29 Thread Ogoshi
Buenas

He instalado Postfix como servidor de correo en mi pc de uso normal.
Entonces a la hora de realizar la configuración, y en base a las
pregunas que me hace cuando realiza la instalación pongo lo siguiente:

 - Type Configuration: Internet Site
 - Mail for root: None
 - Mail name: jupiter (nombre de mi maquina)
 - Other destination: jupiter, localhost.domain, localhost
 - Syncronous: no
 - Local Network: 127.0.0.0/8
 - Use procmail: yes
 - size: 0
 - Exension character: +
 - Internet Protocol: all

Así mismo, en el fichero de /etc/host tengo lo siguiente:
 127.0.0.0  localhost
 192.168.0.3jupiter

También tengo instalado fetchmail con un crontab para mi usuario y el
procmail para distribuir el correo.

Pero entonces en cuando vienen los problemas. El primero, es que parece
que el cron no actual, y si quiero los correos, tengo que ejecutar yo
mismo el fetchmail, y despues me aparece el siguiente mensaje:

fetchmail: no se puede encontrar una clave para vsantos@/dev/null.

Alguien puede decirme donde me estoy equivocando, así como si la
configuración que tiene el postfix es la correcta, y dentro de lo que
cabe, la más segura?

Gracias si alguien puede echarme una mano.

fetchmail: SMTP error: 450 4.4.3

2006-10-27 Thread J F

My fetchmail seems wedged. 
Usually this is cause by somebody faking a domain
and spamming.
Does anybody know how to flush this email or
get my fetchmail to fetch it?

Smail is my MTA (mail transport agent).
I recall it is the thing that flag the spam and
plugs up fetchmail.

Any ideas?

Hi J F,
i used to use pop3browser and list the email message headers and when I
found a bad one, deleted it. This usually got fetchmail 'unwedged'.

Fetchmail configuration: Alias FETCHMAIL-DAEMON

2006-10-22 Thread Dr. Clemens Hardewig
Hi folks,

ich habe auf meinem Server eine fetchmail exim4 Mailkonfiguration und Debian 
3.1 am laufen. Nun habe ich einen netten Spammer, der unbekannte usernamen 
bei meiner Domain anfängt zu beschmeißen, woraufhin mein fetchmail mit der 
Absenderadresse [EMAIL PROTECTED] als Absendername das DIng 
zurückbounced. Dies aber wiederum nimmt der SMTP server meines ISPs zum 
Anlass, dass Ding wg unbekannter Absenderadresse abzulehnen - und wir sind 
mitten im Nirwana!

Frage: Wie kann ich fetchmail so konfigurieren, dass ich eine Art alias des 
FETCHMAIL-DAEMON users zu einem gültigen E-Mailaccount auf meiner Domain 
abbilden kann

Weiss da jemand Rat?

Freue mich auf Feedback

BR Clemens

Es ist keine gute Idde, SPAM bouncen zu lassen, da die Absender meist
gefälscht sind.

set postmaster = $GUELTIGER_USER

... in der fetchmailrc, dann bekommt der gueltige User die Mail.

Fetchmail + Procmail + qpopper Mails holen

2006-10-09 Thread Stefan Bauer
Hallo Liste,

Ich betreibe hie einen Debian-exim Mailserver in Kombination mit User
eigenen .procmailrc Dateien. Am Ende befinden sich die Mails in
/var/spool/mail/username

Darauf greift qpopper zu und liefert die Mails per pop aus.

Jetzt wollte ich von einem entfernten POP-Account zusätzlich mal Mails
mit fetchmail holen. Funktioniert auch:

.fetchmailrc

#
server pop.anbieter.tld
proto pop3
user [EMAIL PROTECTED]
pass geheim
to sb
mda /usr/bin/procmail

Er holt die Mails und gibt sie an procmail weiter:

.procmailrc

:0fw:
| /usr/bin/spamc
:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
/var/spool/bayes/username-spam

Die Mail landet auch in /var/spool/mail/sb

Leider weigert sich nun mein Qpopper, wenn ich Mails abholen will:

-snip-
Unable to process From lines (envelopes), change recognition modes or
check for corrupted mail drop
-snap-

Eigentlich nachvollziehbar aber wie umgehe ich die fehlende From
Zeile? bzw. wie erhalte ich diese bei der Abholung mit fetchmail?

Der Teil aus der /var/spool/mail/sb was ihm nicht gefällt ist:

Fetchmail und maximale Anzahl an Mails pro Session?

2006-10-02 Thread Martin Mewes
Hallo aus Hamburg,

ich hätte da mal ein Problem ...

Es existiert ein ziemlich schwachbrüstiger IMAP-Server in meinem Umfeld, der
eine lausige Anbindung hat, aber für mich sehr wichtig ist.

Es macht von daher nicht immer Freude diesen Server anzuzapfen, da ab und an
auch Mails jenseits der 1MB drinne sind. Zur Info: Es handelt sich dabei um
einen DSL-Account, dessen Upload mit 128kbit mein Download ist.

Nun möchte ich die Arbeit auf einen Rechner verschieben, wo ich /root bin.
Das sieht momentan so aus:

IMAP
- fetchmail
- sendmail
- procmail
- avmilter
- spamassassin
- local user
- POP3
- mein Rechner

Nun liegen so in ca. 1500 Nachrichten im IMAP-Account und wenn ich fetchmail
manuell starte (später dann via cron), so zieht er sich ein paar Mails und
spätestens so nach 40 Nachrichten ist die Last auf dem Rechner so hoch
(20+), daß sendmail nix mehr akzeptieren mag. Bis sendmail sich dann
beruhigt hat, vergehen dann so ca. 10 Minuten.

Ich habe die sendmail.mc bereits ein wenig angepasst, so daß sendmail erst
bei einer Last 30+ aussteigt (sprich keine Mails mehr annimmt).
Im IMAP-Account habe ich alle Nachrichten auf gelesen gesetzt und markiere
nun für jeden manuellen Durchlauf von fetchmail 40 Nachrichten auf
ungelesen.

Die Verarbeitung von 40 Mails dauert aber trotzdem jeweils 15 Minuten, da
ich immer warten muß, bis die Rechnerlast sich wieder bei 0.5 normalisiert
hat.

Gibt es eigentlich eine Lösung dafür, daß fetchmail jeweils immer nur 10
ungelesene Nachrichten zieht? Entweder bin ich blind oder ich habe in der
Manpage nix gefunden. Wenn das ginge, dann könnte ich sendmail wieder per
sendmail.mc auf normales Maß zurücksetzen (Ablehnung von Mails ab Last 15+),
damit die anderen Dienste des Servers nicht aussteiegen.

Wenn dadurch der Komplettimport des IMAP-Accounts auch mehrere Tage dauern
würde, wäre mir das echt wurscht.

Falsche Baustelle. Nach dem Urlaub hat bei mir fetchmail auch ein paar
tausend E-Mails gezogen. Allerdings darf mein Postfix nur eine Handvoll
Prozesse starten, so dass all die Mails in der Queue gelandet sind und
schön der Reihe nach abgearbeitet wurden.

Testing - fetchmail heads up

2006-09-25 Thread Patrick Wiseman
Hi, all:Maybe it's just me, but after an upgrade this weekend, fetchmail stopped working, and when I tried to start it, I kept getting the message Edit /etc/default/fetchmail to start fetchmail. No editing in there helped, and running dpkg-reconfigure on fetchmail repeated the message twice! It turns out that /etc/init.d/fetchmail, after loading /etc/default/fetchmail, tests for START_DAEMON=yes. But there is no line in there defining START_DAEMON. There _is_, however, a line defining SERVICE true. So I edited /etc/init.d/fetchmail to test for SERVICE=true instead, and now fetchmail works again.
I suspect I did something during an earlier upgrade which broke it, but maybe not.Patrick

problema maildrop + fetchmail

2006-09-09 Thread Christian Pinedo Zamalloa
hola,

tengo configurado mi fetchmail para que descargue los correos de mi
cuenta de gmail y los entregue directamente a mi MDA, maildrop, en lugar
de tener un servidor de correo escuchando en el puerto 25.

# cat .fetchmailrc
poll pop.gmail.com port 995 protocol pop3  username  password * mda 
/usr/bin/maildrop -d zako ssl

El problema es que hoy se ha actualizado el paquete maildrop en testing
con nuevas dependencias entre ellas courier-authlib y ahora al descargar
los emails con fetchmail obtengo un error:

# fetchmail
ERR: authdaemon: s_connect() failed: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/maildrop: Temporary authentication failure.
fetchmail: error socket recibiendo de [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Alguien me puede comentar que puedo mirar. Se me hace muy raro tener que
instalar el demonio de autenticación de courier para utilizar sólo
maildrop... Saludos,

Fetchmail UIDL-cache

2006-09-05 Thread Beno_t Barbier
Bonjour à tous,

Le démon fetchmail utilise :
/var/lib/fetchmail/.fetchmail-UIDL-cache
Pour garder les id des courriels déjà téléchargé. 

Si en temps qu'utilisateur, je lance fetchmail en ligne de commande pour
avoir un mail tout de suite, fetchmail utilise :
$HOME/.fetchids
Et recommence le téléchargement de tous les courriels qui ne s'y
trouvent pas.

Je ne peux pas configurer mon $HOME/.fetchmailrc avec l'option :

set idfile /var/lib/fetchmail/.fetchmail-UIDL-cache

Car le démon remet les droits à « -rw--- fetchmail nogroup » sur 
« /var/lib/fetchmail/.fetchmail-UIDL-cache » à chaque démarrage.

Comment faire pour pouvoir lancer fetchmail en ligne de commande et ne
télécharger que les nouveaux courriels?

Merci d'avance

Benoît.




fetchmail config question

2006-09-02 Thread marc
Hi,

I want to grab emails for a whole domain (fred.com) from a mailbox - 
either POP3 or IMAP, either will do - and forward to Postfix on the 
local domain (insidefirewall.blah) and have the emails distributed to 
the appropriate local accounts. Postfix is set-up with mostly with 
virtual accounts - and a few local /Maildir accounts, as you'd expect.

I've had a look at getmail and fetchmail, but can't understand the 
required config to make this work.

I've no problem connecting to the mail server with, say:

  poll mail.fred.com with protocol pop3
user [EMAIL PROTECTED] there with password pa55werd

but this, of course, dumps everything into one local email account.

I also tried the likes of:

  poll mail.fred.com with protocol pop3 no envelope localdomains 
insidefirewall.blah
user [EMAIL PROTECTED] there with password pa55werd to * here
smtphost localhost

but this retains the original domain on emails, so sets up an email loop 
when Postfix re-relays the emails.

I understand that I can do what I want one account at a time, but that 
simply increases the admin required in the setup by a couple of orders 
of magnitude. This is not an option.

The fetchmail docs are close to impenetrable, which doesn't help. The 
getmail docs are much, much better, but, as I read them, getmail doesn't 
write to SMTP:25, only directly to Maildir or mbox.

Is there a sane way to do this?

I am not sure its fetchmail that is your problem.  Here is my fetchmailrc 
(with the password removed).  The first account is a catchall and will have 
mails addressed to anyone in my system - the * is the key here, the other 
four are specific accounts which I pass on to.  Exim is the system that picks 
up the accounts from there

So here is fetchmailrc

Hallo!

Ich benutze schon ewig fetchmail (auf Sarge), allerdings hatte ich heute 
zum ersten Mal das Problem, dass eine große Mail (ca. 3 MB) auf dem 
Server meines Providers (11) _nicht_ gelöscht wurde, obwohl sie 
komplett abgeholt wurde. Dies führte dazu, dass die Mail immer und immer 
wieder geholt und zugestellt wurde, jedoch nie gelöscht?!?! Woran kann 
das liegen? Hier ein Ausschnitt aus fetchmail -vvv:


***.**.*.***fetchmail: SMTP. (EOM)
fetchmail: Protokollfehler im SMTP-Lauscher
 nicht geflusht

Viel mehr konnte ich bisher nicht finden. Jemand eine Idee? Danke!!

Kann es sein dass dein lokaler MTA keine so grossen Mails annimmt? Oder
das sein spool-Verzeichnis vllt. voll ist? Jedenfalls bricht die
Verbindung mit dem MTA (aka SMTP-Lauscher, wer hat diese bescheuerte
Uebersetzung geschrieben?) zusammen, bevor fetchmail die Mail komplett
abliefern konnte.
