fetchmail: SMTP error: 450 4.4.3
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.

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'. cheers, Kev -- | .''`. == Debian GNU/Linux == | my web site: | | : :' : The Universal | debian.home.pipeline.com | | `. `' Operating System| go to counter.li.org and | | `-http://www.debian.org/ |be counted! #238656 | | my keysever: pgp.mit.edu | my NPO: cfsg.org | signature.asc Description: Digital signature
