[fetchmail]Different polling intervals for each mail server

2001-04-01 00:25:32
Is there any way I can possibly specify a different polling
interval for each mail account?  I have a high-traffic account on
a local network that I need to check every 30 seconds or so.  I
also have an account out on the internet, that gets very little
mail, that I only need to check every couple of hours.

This seems like it would be a common request, but I haven't found
any way to get fetchmail to do this.  I have tried running
separate instances of fetchmail (one for each mail account), but
unfortunately fetchmail only wants to run one instance per user.
This seems like a huge limitation.  Any workaround?

Thanks,

Steve
