use of interface

2001-03-02 05:24:28

I have been trying to use fetchmail's "interface" to control what
configuration for a given host is used. So that I can use different
limits when running over ppp (usually 9.6Kb/s) and when on faster
networks(10/100Mb/s).

so far all I have accomplished is a:

Mar  2 13:06:15 trylle fetchmail[8842]: Unknown login or authentication error 
on larsbj(_at_)domain
Mar  2 13:06:15 trylle fetchmail[8842]: socket error while fetching from domain 
                                       

the config looks like this:

poll some.host with proto IMAP auth ssh:
       plugin "ssh %h /usr/sbin/imapd";
       user 'larsbj' there is larsbj here options warnings 3600
    antispam 571 550 501 554

(this works.)

If I add interface:

poll some.host with proto IMAP auth ssh interface ppp0/0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0:
       plugin "ssh %h /usr/sbin/imapd";
       user 'larsbj' there is larsbj here options warnings 3600
    antispam 571 550 501 554

it stops working with the above message.

Tia,
