Sorry for the late reply. 
Well, when I say fetchmail, it start downloading mails. It d/ls all of them 
and waits for 300 sec and moves to next server. How can I prevent that?
I really want to get this thing working ASAP.
Thanks and bye.

When I type fetchmail -v it starts polling one of the remote server and
after
it finishes d/l the mails, it waits for long. Then it gives a timeout [300
sec] and exits. That is the reason I am not sure whether it really d/l the
remaining mails or just waits. Please tell what to do about this?
fetchmail release is 5.9.7+RPA+NTLM+SDPS+SSL+NLS

Sounds like a problem on your remote mail server.  Not really much you can
do unfortunately.

The question is does it complete the poll (it'll tell you how many messages
it has to download) and move on to the next server, or die during the poll?
