Hi All

I'm still having some problems with fetchmail delivering to the local user.
I get the following result when I configure James as per the example 1
account 1 user.

The email is downloaded fine. The message "Using configured recipient as new
envelope recipient appears correctly. The system then waits for several
seconds before giving the error message "Message could not be delivered due
to an error determining the remote domain".

Which domain is it trying to resolve? The domain of the sender or the
recipient?

Thanks for the help,

Nick.

You need to use James fetchmail. Unfortunately there is a bug in the version
in v2.2.0 so you will need the 2.2.1-RC1 canidate version which can be
downloaded from http://cvs.apache.org/dist/james/bin/.

The fetchmail documentation at
http://james.apache.org/fetchmail_configuration_2_2.html covers this.

Simplest is to define two fetch tasks, one for mckennaconsultants.com and
one for kulgan.demon.co.uk. The former would contain <account/> entries for
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED],
the latter would contain an <account/> entry for [EMAIL PROTECTED]
See
http://james.apache.org/fetchmail_configuration_2_2.html#fetchmail%20Example
s, "One Account, One User".

Once you have the above working you may want to check if the more
sophisicated examples documented in subsequent paragraphs are applicable.

A common scenario for many.
