Thanks Rob,
It works after your guidance! thanks again.
I have another questions for u, I have specfied the fetchmail to run in
daemon mode in 30mins interval.
1)Is there any way to configure it to run at 30 mins during weedday and 1 hr
during weekend?
2)if I reboot the Linux system and does not log on, will fetchmail run in
the background?

Try "man fetchmail" - always a good starting point...
I have read that already, but no direct solution.
It's there, in the man page under the section of multi drop mail boxes.
Trust me on this one, that's how I found out.
You do have to do a lot of reading mind you as it's fairly far down. From
memory it's something like poll...to * here (for a 1:1 mapping, relying on
the local MTA to do name mappings).
another question that I have is, i came across a article saying creating
a
dot-qmail file in the /var/qmail/alias/ folder with the content of:
| ../bin/qmail-inject -a -f"$SENDER" "${LOCAL#mbox-userstr-}(_at_)HOST"
it stated also that this require a modern /bin/sh.
can anyone tell me what does it means by "require a modern /bin/sh"?
Probably means something that's POSIX compliant, not a pure BOURNE shell
(ie
something like bash or ksh). Sadly I don't use qmail but sendmail so
can't
really help further on that issue.
