Fetchmail Version : fetchmail-5.9.0-1

I'd suggest you upgrade to at least the latest "gold" version, if not the latest version.

example .fetchmailrc :

poll pop.net4india.com
        protocol pop3
        timeout 5000
        uidl
        auth password
        user "senthil"
        pass "xxxxxx"
        is senthil
        keep

UIDL ? is it .fetchmailrc ?    sorry i dont know what exactly it is :-(

See line 4 of your file. You need to have a different file for each user. Try putting the following in each file:

set idfile <path to home>/.fetchmailids

Create those files as the users concerned and give them permissions 0600.


 Please DO NOT send me ANY email directly unless it's a privacy issue.
