Hi, Thank u for your reply. I did ensure that james was running fine and I could send a message out and retrieve email from a local account in james. The messages that i sent you werer from the log file for fetchmail. I actually got the thing to work and the problem was that fetchmail was not being able to resolve what localhost meant. I even had an entry in my hosts file and that did not work.
Finally my solution was to run a dns server on my machine and point localhost to my ip. I thought that a dns server was not a requirement james..is it now with 2.2? ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve Brewin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wednesday, June 30, 2004 3:10 pm Subject: Problems getting fetchmail to work: > Kenn Chong wrote: > > Hey guys!
