Fetchmail relies on the local mta (I think) to deliver mail so this
needs to be set up and running on the local machine so users need to be
set up

Also users need to be created on the system. If you use linuxconf it
will sort all this out automatically

Problem:
Remote server - qmail with pop3 mailboxes, red hat
Local machine - red hat with fetchmail, .fetchmailrc standard setup just 
enough to get mail of the server

when I run fetchmail I see it getting mail of the server to the local 
machine. But when it's done, I can't find my email. First problem I see that 
user that I'm getting mail for doesn't have /var/spool/mail/user created. Do 
I have to created or it should be done automatically?

Someone please help,
