Re: [fetchmail] Fetchmail issue...

Detailed information follow. In few words, I configured fetchmail to pass to Procmail. I first had it poll two pop servers: altern.org and pop.laposte.net. This worked at once. I then added pop.free.fr. I did not got email. I read the log file and it say:

fetchmail: fetchmail: getaddrinfo(pop.free.fr.pop3)

This does not match with what it did for the other servers where the line was:

fetchmail: fetchmail: getaddrinfo(altern.org)

This is fetchmail release 6.1.2+IMAP-GSS+SSL+INET6
<---SNIP--->
Fetchmail will direct error mail to the postmaster.
<---SNIP--->
Options for retrieving from francois(_dot_)granger(_at_)pop(_dot_)free(_dot_)fr:
  True name of server is pop.free.fr.

Looks ok, despite what your getaddr shows.

What about "fetchmail -v -v"? You also probably want to upgrade to 6.2.0 first.


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