Re: [fetchmail]How do I use multidrop?

From: Ken Ingram <kingram(_at_)sdl(_dot_)org>

The man page does not directly answer my question and
I cannot determine the answer by making inferences from
the information given.

I want to use sendmail to handle local network distribution.
(Anybody groaning? I'm having enough problems
with fetchmail, I'm not getting started an some other MTA
until I can figure out this problem)

I receive mail addressed to my domain via POP3 from my ISP.

I want to give people I know a place to have email on my
server as well as have several different email addresses
I can use.

How do I get fetchmail to pick up email addressed to
bill(_at_)sdl(_dot_)org
kingram(_at_)sdl(_dot_)org
etc(_at_)sdl(_dot_)org
etc2(_at_)sdl(_dot_)org

Well, I'd suggest a re-RTFM. The answers are in there - I know 'cos that's the source I used to build a config like the one you describe. If you'd posted your setup somebody could have commented.

However, take a look at the "no rewrite" tag.

For the poll line you're probably looking for something like:

poll pop.server localdomains sdl.org username "user" password "pass" to * here


   Please don't CC me on anything sent to mailing lists or send
       me email directly unless it's a privacy issue, thanks.
