greetings all:

have tried the faq and other help sources but to no avail.  any advice is
much appreciated.

the problem:

when i run fetchmail, it connects to the mail server, reports that i have
146 messages there, and then starts giving errors of the following nature:

"reading message lee211(_at_)mail(_dot_)cr(_dot_)duq(_dot_)edu:137 of 146 
(2308 octets)
..fetchmail: SMTP error: 451 4.1.8 Domain of sender address
mplayer-users-admin(_at_)mplayerhq(_dot_)hu does not resolve. not flushed"

note: this happens w/ every message, not just the mplayer mailing list
ones.

Check your /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nsswitch.conf.

As a workaround, try to run fetchmail with
--mda "/usr/sbin/sendmail -i -oem -f %F %T"
