[fetchmail]Multidrop configuration question

2002-01-28 16:03:44
Hello all,

Thank you an advance for reading this.

I am attempting to set up fetchmail release 5.7.4+IMAP-GSS+SSL+INET6+NLS in
mulidrop mode, forwarding mail to a mailserver on a different computer. I
can't get fetchmail to recognise the local users, so all mail is going to
the postmaster. I haven't used the 'localdomains' phrase in .fetchmailrc as
my interpretion of the man page suggests mail will be passed through
unmodified. I want fetchmail to rewrite the headers for the mailing list
mail I get. I have tried a users line both with and without 'here' appended.
The result is the same in both cases. I have also tried both user and
user(_at_)domain in the user line.
There has to be something I have missed over the last two days.


My .fetchmailrc file is:

[root(_at_)rimmer ~]# more .fetchmailrc
# Configuration created Sun Jan 27 12:18:27 2002 by fetchmailconf
set postmaster "john(_at_)teletrak(_dot_)com(_dot_)au"
set bouncemail
set no spambounce
set properties ""
poll mail.sprintsoft.com with proto POP3 checkalias
   user teletrak-124059 with pass xxxx to john 
cecilia(_at_)teletrak(_dot_)com(_dot_)au
sandra '
music'='john' here
   smtphost starbug
   smtpaddress teletrak.com.au


Portion of a run with -v -v gives:

fetchmail: analyzing Received line:
Received: from zipperii.zip.com.au (zipperii.zip.com.au [61.8.0.87])
