Hello,
I'm a new fetchmail user and I'm having a bit of trouble. I'm trying to
use fetchmail to get mail from my POP account and relay it to pine. Well,
when someone emails me I get an email back from
FETCHMAIL-DAEMON(_at_)hostname(_dot_)domain saying:
Some addresses were rejected by the MDA fetchmail forwards to.
This is your clue - the problem has nothing to do with fetchmail but with
your mail server.
[ Part 2: "Delivery Status" ]
Reporting-MTA: dns; localhost
Final-Recipient: rfc822; vze3sjs2
Last-Attempt-Date: Wed, 03 Sep 2003 21:43:22 -0400 (EDT)
Action: failed
Status: v.0.0
Diagnostic-Code: vze3sjs2: 550 5.1.1 <vze3sjs2(_at_)localhost>... User unknown
vze3sjs2 is my pop name account. I've tried looking for this in the
fetchmail docs but I've come up unsuccessful. Any help is greatly
appreciated.
You've 2 options, the first is to tell your mail server that vze3sjs2 is an
alias for whatever account you want it delivered to. The second is to tell
fetchmail what account to deliver to:
poll pop.isp.net user vse3sjs2 password fred is king here
You'll also need to make sure that your mail server understands that
"localhost" is a domain it handles.
If you want more help do please remember to provide such details as version
of fetchmail and mail server software in use (and version). A copy of your
.fetchmailrc wouldn't hurt either.
Please DO NOT send me ANY email directly unless it's a privacy issue.
Reply-to mangled to assist those who don't read the above.
