Hello,
I have been having a problem with fetchmail since I installed IPChains
on my Linux Mandrake 7.2 system. Everything else works fine except for
fetchmail. Netscape messenger handles both inbound and outbound mail
just fine. With pine I can only send mail but not receive any, since
fetchmail isn't working. I haven't blocked port 25 with IPChains. As a
matter of fact I haven't specified anything for port 25, which I assume
is causing the problem. But the output below indicates to me that
everything is working through this port.
Below I attached the output of the command,
fetchmail -vc
fetchmail: 5.5.2 querying POP6.sympatico.ca (protocol POP3) at Sun, 11

Could anyone please help me out? Thank you.
