Hi list,
I am having the same old problem found in nearly all fetchmail list mails..
but still none of them seem to give me a clue about how to solve the problem
or am i not getting it ??? the problem iam facing is ...
[root(_at_)localhost senthilg]# fetchmail -v -f test
fetchmail: 5.9.0 querying pop.net4india.com (protocol POP3) at Wed 02 Oct

fetchmail: protocol error while fetching UIDLs
fetchmail: POP3> QUIT
fetchmail: client/server synchronization error while fetching from
pop.net4india.com
fetchmail: Query status=7 (ERROR)
fetchmail: normal termination, status 7
The error crops up like client/server sync error and no mail is pulled out
of the mailbox. Well accoring to some mails in the list which i read ...
it is discussed as if it is more of a bandwidth problem .. the fact is i am
well connected and my local system using outlookexpress are able to easily
pull the mails from the same place but fetchmail is not able to .. i am
running redhat 7.2 and fetchmail ver 5.9.0-1 and the pop server i am trying
to connect is " Cubic Circle's v1.31" .
Is there any known remedy for this problem ?? can anyone please help me out
?
