[fetchmail] -s(ilence) not respected

2002-09-26 10:24:01

Hi Fetchmail Friends,

Latest version of fetchmail doesn't seem to respect the -s option at all 
appropriate times (I know errors still get reported).

Specifically, this one keeps pops up continuously on STDERR:

fetchmail: Repoll immediately on 
gbell(_at_)pop(_dot_)pi(_dot_)sbcglobal(_dot_)net

This server seems to cause this every time.

Here's the greeting line:

Connected to pop.sbcglobal.net.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK POP3 server ready <225274(_dot_)1033060986(_at_)popd>

-V output below.
