[fetchmail]hi everyone & a few quick questions

hi everyone,


first, my name is sebastian, i'm 23 years old and i just subscribed
(hooray!).


i got into fetchmail today, read the whole man-page and the whole FAQ and
searched google for left-open questions. and now i'm here, so starting
right away:

- i don't see any options for command-line or .fetchmailrc to support
ssl/tls when submitting mail to smtp-servers. that means there is none,
but it's on the list since ever and soon to be implemented, right?

- now, there's this guy who hosts some domains and mailboxes for friends
and wants them to be able to gather all their email to one centralized
imap-server. for laziness in checking mail from more than one account...
however this guy doesn't want 20 fetchmail-daemons running 24/7 for every
user. if i see this correctly, best way would be telling users to
smtp-forward - but wouldn't it be nice if fetchmail could go in
multi-user-mode, reading /home/*/.fetchmailrc and take it all in just one
daemon-process?

- i'm sure you all know this... fetchmail rocks. thanks to eric and
whoever does all the other coding, great job!


so, for my first on this ml. any comments welcome :)


greetings,

sebastian lechte
