It tells me....

This is fetchmail release 5.9.0+IMAP-GSS+SSL+INET6+NLS

Ok, you might find it worth updating to the latest version (was 5.9.11 when I last looked).

poll mail.attbi.com with proto POP3

I want to maintain all the emails i get on my pop3 server. I re-read
many of mails a day or so later at work via my ISP webmail.

I just want fetchmail to grab the new mails only leaving the read ones
on the server. Not flooding my inbox spool with duplicate messages.

Well, the answer is in my previous emails, and the man page:

      keep               -k    Don't  delete  seen  messages from
                               server

Try:

poll mail.attbi.com with proto POP3
       user 'rfindlay10' there
       with password '#######' is 'rfindlay10' here
       keep


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