Okay,
I'm back... but not without a serious problem.
I have read the manual god knows how many times and found nothing. I have
searched the web with countless phrases. I cannot stop fetchmail from
rewriting the envelope headers. I have tried all the suggestions posted
before hand... I cannot for the life of me stop fetchmail rewriting my
headers...
See the following:
<--- debug-run --->
fetchmail: SMTP< 220 gateway.home.gotworms.co.uk ESMTP Exim 3.35 #1 Sun, 26
Jan 2003 11:28:06 +0000
fetchmail: SMTP> EHLO pinky.notnet.co.uk
fetchmail: SMTP< 250-gateway.home.gotworms.co.uk Hello localhost [127.0.0.1]
fetchmail: SMTP< 250-SIZE
fetchmail: SMTP< 250-PIPELINING
fetchmail: SMTP< 250 HELP
fetchmail: forwarding to localhost
fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL FROM:<pobk(_at_)nomercy(_dot_)co(_dot_)uk> SIZE=1304
fetchmail: SMTP< 250 <pobk(_at_)nomercy(_dot_)co(_dot_)uk> is syntactically
correct
fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:<fetchmail(_at_)localhost> <------------------- ### See
!!!
fetchmail: SMTP< 250 <fetchmail(_at_)localhost> verified
fetchmail: SMTP> DATA
fetchmail: SMTP< 354 Enter message, ending with "." on a line by itself
#************fetchmail: SMTP>. (EOM)
fetchmail: SMTP< 250 OK id=18ckxK-0004Jk-00
<--- / debug-run --->
<--- fetchmailrc --->
set invisible # doesn't really work... since fetchmail rewrites regardless
poll pinky.notnet.co.uk
protocol pop3
user "xxxxxxxx"
pass "xxxxxxxx"
no rewrite;
<--- / fetchmailrc --->
What happens?
The Message is frozen, since it cannot deliver to /home/fetchmail/Maildir...
cos it doesn't exist.
If I add:
smtpname "richard(_at_)gotworms(_dot_)co(_dot_)uk"
or:
is "richard(_at_)gotworms(_dot_)co(_dot_)uk" here
it means the headers are re-written and TMDA doesn't work.
Please tell me:
a) What the hell I am doing wrong...
b) Why fetchmail REALLY doesn't like me...
