RE: Fetchmail don't keep messages !!!
How much did you pay for Fetchmail? If you think it is a bug check out the project website. Red Hat and nobody on the list wrote it. Most developers are willing to listen to anyone with a genuine concern, but you should remember to keep your cool if you want to ask for someone to spend hours of their time helping you. ;-) Wade -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Marcos S.

Re: increase timeout for fetchmail socket error (exitcode=2)?
ty for answering, i should have mentioned before, my previous experience with heavy dialup traffic has shown that round trip time for pings can be longer than 15 seconds for sure, possibly longer than 30. so i expect that i'm on the hunt for some timeout that is not waiting long enough. also fetchmail exitcode=2 (socket error) means "An error was encountered when attempting to open a socket to retrieve mail." so i suspect there's some timeout somewhere relevant to opening a connection. so if anyone has an idea where to look.. tia, -greg On Fri, 2003-09-05 at 23:46, Sean Estabrooks wrote: > On 05 Sep 2003 12:32:15 +0100 gregory mott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > hi redhatters, > > > > fetchmail has a parameter for timeout, but apparently that parameter > > doesn't affect whatever timeout results in exitcode=2, socket error. > > > > i bet the relevant timeout is in the kernel, not fetchmail? > > > > this is happening alot when our dialup is busy with other things, like > > rsync, or up2date, or other traffic between lan and internet.. > > > > any idea where to cast the tweaking eye? > > Hi Gregory, > > The default keepalive values will let a connection persist > for over 11 minutes without an answer.

If this is what is causing your disconnects you have some _serious_ congestion. Perhaps it's something else but you can take a look at /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_* Also, from the fetchmail FAQ: Fetchmail is timing out during message fetches: This is probably a general networking issue. Sending a "RETR" command will cause the server to start sending large amounts of data, which means large packets. If your networking layer has a packet-fragmentation problem, that's where you'll see it.

hi redhatters, fetchmail has a parameter for timeout, but apparently that parameter doesn't affect whatever timeout results in exitcode=2, socket error. i bet the relevant timeout is in the kernel, not fetchmail? this is happening alot when our dialup is busy with other things, like rsync, or up2date, or other traffic between lan and internet.. any idea where to cast the tweaking eye? tia, greg -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Actually, after playing around with the cron job approach, I went ahead and installed the first replier's startup script, because I boot up my computer several times a day sometimes (sometimes only once), but always at different times, and the first thing I have to do when I boot up is read my mail, so if my bootup time didn't coincide with the time set in the cron job, I would have to start fetchmail manually anyway. The startup script works beautifully, and I have fetchmail running as a daemon through the fetchmailrc file. Thanks for all the help, though. -- Marc Adler -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Here's a script that works under RH9 for me. It's set up as a daemon

adding fetchmail startup script
I want to have fetchmail start up automatically, because as it is I have to type "fetchmail" (twice for some reason) at the shell prompt before it goes and fetches my mail. I looked at some of the scripts in /etc/init.d, but couldn't figure out how to simply write one for fetchmail. Is there a simple way? I tried serviceconf, but fetchmail wasn't in the list.

Re: Cron/Fetchmail mail
Most probably the errors are outputted to the stderr file descriptor while the usual messages are outputted to the stdout descriptor. You have redirected to /dev/null the stdout only. To suppress error messages you need to add the redirection for stderr.

Alternatively, if you think you'll never run out of disk space, you can add mda "/usr/bin/procmail -t -f -" to your pop account options in $HOME/.fetchmailrc -- that will deliver retrieved messages directly via procmail.

Problems wiht FETCHMAIL on RH mail server
I set up an RH 7.3 box with FETCHMAIL/PROCMAIL/SENDMAIL/IMAP and SAMBA for a file server/mail server for a client. The client accesses the internet via ADSL on a Win2k box that "shares" the connection with the rest of the internal network. The machines on the "internal" network have the basic 192.168.0.0 addressing set. No problems there. The problem is, though, that when using fetchmail, I'm consistently stuck getting an errorcode of 7 - fetchmail timeout waiting for response from the server. I've changed the timeout values, I've changed the batch size limit, and just about everything else, but still get the constant timeout error code. Is there any way around this, or is it possibly a problem with the ISP from whence the mail originates? I've used this same setup for several other sites, but have not hit a wall like this until now. Any nice words are appreciated. -- Tue, 18 Feb 2003 09:15:00 +1100 9:15am up 18:11, 5 users, load average: 0.38, 1.82, 1.69 -- |____ | kuhn media australia| | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn| | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]| | |'. `\ | | |icq: 5483808 | | ;"""/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.---.| | mobile: 0410-728-389| | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | -- linux user:267497 * RH 7.3 * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting -- I recognize terror as the finest emotion and so I will try to terrorize the reader.

Fetchmail and system-wide configuration
Hi all I'm currently running fetchmail as a user with a .fetchmailrc from the user's home directory and it seems to work fine. What I really do want is to run it as a service or daemon at boot time without any user intervention i.e without logging in to the machine at all. In effect I want the fetchmailrc file to be system-wide. So I made a copy of the .fetchmailrc file and placed it in the /etc directory (/etc/fetchmailrc) and later run fetchmail with the -d option from /etc/rc.d/rc.local. But this hasn't worked even though in principle I think it should. It seems to me that I'm missing a few tricks and that I'm not too far away from getting it right. Does anyone know if this is possible and has anyone tried it? Any tricks or tips from anyone would be very much appreciated.

Re: Fetchmail
If your computer is on 7/24, maybe your ISP will send all mail directly to you without being stored in a mailbox on his computer. Then your RH can be the mail server and eliminate the need for fetchmail. That's the way mine works.

RE: Fetchmail
Hi Edward, I've called the ISP and they say there are no problems on their end and I should have mentioned that I can download the mail fine if I point Outlook directly at the ISP. It seems to be only certain messages that give errors (I can't find a pattern though), when I clear them, the rest of the mail goes through. Lately I get about 4 bad messages a week and fetchmail stops working when it hits one until I manually clear it. Is there a way even to get fetchmail to continue fetching despite these errors?

For example ppp dial-on-demand usually pick arbitrary addresses while not connected to the ISP. Lets say 10.0.0.1 for argument's sake. A request goes out for a HTML page for example. The packet waits to go out, while the system dials. BUT!!! When the system has connected, the DHCP server at the ISP end gives your system another (true internet) address. I think what the thingo above does is re-write the headers of the packets waiting to go out to the new source address, so that when they do go out, they can be routed back properly when the request is filled. I think. Maybe. :) All I know is on my dial-up, I've always had to have this option.

Fetchmail problem with demand dailing
Hello List, I have started getting the following error in the fetchmail log: fetchmail: Query status=2 (SOCKET) The consequence is that mail is not retrieved for my home network. My modem is configured to demand dial (via wvdial) and I usually start fetchmail with fetchmail -d 7200. I have read the man pages and it appears that fetchmail "times out" while waiting for my ISP to be connected and the DNS resolved. It assumes that the POP server does not exist. If the connection is already up, then fetchmail works as intended. My suspicion is that resolving my ISP's DNS is taking a little longer due to my primary DNS pointing to my DNS cache and my secondary DNS pointing to my ISP. This slight delay appears to hang fetchmail. I have had fetchmail working perfectly and the implementation of DNS cache is the only thing I can think of that I have configured recently that may cause a problem.

Thanks to all and Eddie is right. There is only one user with one password at the ISP end; and this user may have as many email addresses as possible.

Re: Fetchmail, Sendmail and multiple usernames
Hello, Actually it *is* guaranteed to misdeliver mail - the first time you get a message where the recipient list does not match the contents of the headers. See my original message for the details of why this is the case. When they match, the approach will work, however if your mail comes in with not all the "To:" or "Cc:" fields set as you would expect, you will have misdelivery. These cases are common with messages sent to distribution lists, auto forwarded, bcc'd, etc. Please remember that the original poster was trying to deliver from a single remote pop3 account to multiple local pop3 accounts. This is the problem. When you've got a 1:1 match between remote and local accounts, this approach should work without any problems, as the issue of trying to analyze message headers to induce a recipient list goes away.

Re: Fetchmail, Sendmail and multiple usernames
Awuku, I'm not sure how simple or difficult it is to do this with sendmail, however the approach is guaranteed to misdeliver mail. The reason is that when Internet mail is in transit - it is sent with two components - the message content (what you see with your client plus 822 message headers), and the message envelope. The contents of the 822 header (To:, Cc:, Subject:, etc fields) ARE NOT necessarily the same as the message envelope. The message envelope, sometimes also referred to as the "recipient list", contains the addresses to which a message is to be delivered to, independent of the header fields. The contents of this list can and often do change as a message is in transit between the originator and eventual recipients of the message. For instance, Bcc'd recipients do not show up in the headers, but do in the recipient list. Messages that get forwarded (through .forward files or equivalent), or resubmitted (distribution lists) normally don't touch the message headers, however only modify the recipient list. When messages undergo final delivery, the recipient list, or envelope information is lost. This is what you need in order to determine what mailbox or mailboxes to sort mail to. A simple example - let's say I send a message to only this list - you will only see a To: of [EMAIL PROTECTED] header field, regardless of who it was delivered to. How do you intend to route this? There is no way to automate this. Let's say your boss sends out a confidential message, and blind copies you. Your address will not show up in any of the headers. How do you intend to deliver this? Get it wrong and all of a sudden your co-workers have a copy of a message that was supposed to be confidential and for your eyes only. There are several ways in which to properly configure systems which are not perminantly connected to the Internet (or who are connected utilizing dynamically assigned IP addresses) so that mail servers will work properly. Some of these include the use of dynamic IP service providers, message queuing at your provider with ETRN capabile servers at your location, Batch SMTP (BSMTP), and a few others. A more detailed description of this problem, with diagrams can be found in our Principles of Operation manual (http://www.ima.com/pdf/iems/v6/principles.pdf) on page 45. The section that describes addressing and the problems with POP3 sorting of mail is generic and not specific to our products, as well as how one such approach (BSMTP) can be used.

Hello, How many mailboxes do you have with the ISP? In other words - is mail for each user account described being delivered to a DIFFERENT mailbox on the ISP, or are they all being delivered to a single mailbox?

Fetchmail, Sendmail and multiple usernames
Hi all I want to configure fetchmail to POP mail for all my users from my ISP to my local mail server running sendmail. At the moment it fetches the mail and delivers everything to one user but what I really want is for each user's mail to be delivered to their mailbox on the mail server. For example mail fetched from the ISP as [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] is all dumped into the mailbox of user2 on the local mail server on my internal server. BUt what I really want is mail fetched as [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be deliverd to user1 on my local mail server, and that for [EMAIL PROTECTED] to user 2 and so on. I only have one account with the ISP but can have as many usernames as I want for mail as long as the part after the @ symbol is not changed. Any ideas how I can do this?

Instead I get an error: skipping message 20 (2390 octets) not flushed Can anybody explain this phenomenon to a nonprogrammer such as myself? And how do I retrieve these messages?

fetchmail (sendmail?) question
Something that has been bothering me for a while but never got around to. We grab all our mail from our ISP using fetchmail to distribute it to local users. However, when an e-mails domain does not resolve, fetchmail warns me of this but doesn't flush the message, with as a result that every time fetchmail runs, the message stays on the server and there's a log entry for it. What is the easiest way to tell fetchmail (or is this done via sendmail or procmail?), to simply send the non-resolving message to the bit bucket? All of the ones I've seen are spam anyway. For now I use our ISP's webmail server to delete the message, but it's something I shouldn't need to do. TIA -- Edward Dekkers (Director) Triple D Computer Services Pty.

Fetchmail
Hi, I'm getting a problem using fetchmail with linuxconf in Red Hat 7.2. The system hangs while configuring fetchmail in linuxconf and, when I try to reboot, the system hangs in "Configuring Linuxconf hooks". So, if I disable the module fetchmail in linuxconf, the system returns to its normal operation. Did anyone had a problem like this ? Is this a problem of fetchmail ? Thanks, Marcelo.
