Re: [gentoo-user] Fetchmail Problem Help Needed

2003-03-19 Thread Pat Kerwan 
Do you have an SMTP server running on your machine?  By default,
fetchmail will try to deliver to the local SMTP server.  If you don't,
you could try using procmail as described in sections 2 and 3 of:

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/guide-to-mutt.xml

This is what I'm doing, and it works well.

 Hi All:
 When I
 run fetchmailconf to test it does a IMAP conection to my isp's pop server 
 and 
 it sees
 the messages, it then attempts to fetch message one, then errors with:
 
 SMTP connect to localhost failed
 IMAP A0008 LOGOUT
 IMAP )
 IMAP A0007 OK completed
 IMAP +BYE Communigate Pro IMAP closing connection
 IMAP A0008 OK completed
 SMTP transaction error while fetching from pop.charter.net
 6.2.1 querying pop.charter.net (protocol IMAP) at Tue Mar 18 23:48:32 
 2003: poll competed
 Query status=10 (SMTP)
 normal termination, status 10
 
 This is the Fetchmail configuration file created by Fetchmailconf run as 
 urser :
 
 # Configuration created Tue Mar 18 20:47:10 2003 by fetchmailconf
 set postmaster ralph
 set bouncemail
 set no spambounce
 set properties 
 set daemon 5
 poll pop.charter.net with proto IMAP
user 'ralphdewitt' there with password 'xx' is 
 'ralphdewitt' 
 here
 
 What am I missing that it can not deliver to Localhost. Can You help to 
 clear up this problem.
 
 
 Ralph

   1)fetchmail -akv -m /usr/bin/procmail -d %T  # Keep msg's on POP sevrer
 
   2)fetchmail -av -m /usr/bin/procmail -d %T   # Download msg's to disk
