I hope this mailing-list can help, these problems have been bugging me
for a while. The docs and FAQ's don't seem to have the answers
[Problem 1]
Every once in a while I get the following kinds of messages:
[jupiter] /home/paul: fetchmail -a
92 messages for me at pop.example.net (532754 octets).
reading message me(_at_)pop(_dot_)example(_dot_)net:1 of 92 (4744 octets)
..fetchmail: incorrect header line found while scanning
headers
..fetchmail: retained
[snip]
Is there any way to force fetchmail to retrieve them (or at least
flush them)?
Currently I just connect to my isp's pop and retrieve them with my
mail reader. The headers don't look too messed up (if in fact that is
the _real_ problem).
[Problem 2]
Fetchmail + Procmail + Spamassassin + long message =
reading message me(_at_)pop(_dot_)example(_dot_)org:6 of 86 (65807 octets)
.................................................................
flushed fetchmail: SIGPIPE thrown from an MDA or a stream socket error
fetchmail: socket error while fetching from pop.example.org
fetchmail: Query status=2 (SOCKET)
All the procmail logs look like the following:
procmail: [7816] Mon Mar 17 17:09:04 2003
procmail: Assigning "LOGABSTRACT=no"
procmail: Assigning "MAILDIR=/home/paul/Mail"
procmail: Assigning "FORMAIL=/usr/local/bin/formail"
procmail: Executing "/usr/local/bin/spamc"
procmail: [7816] Mon Mar 17 17:09:09 2003
procmail: Bypassed locking "/var/mail/paul.lock"
procmail: Assigning "LASTFOLDER=/var/mail/paul"
procmail: Opening "/var/mail/paul"
procmail: Acquiring kernel-lock
procmail: Notified comsat: "paul(_at_)613222:/var/mail/paul"
There are no _failure_ messages from spamd in /var/log/maillog, eg.:
Mar 17 17:09:04 jupiter spamd[7819]: info: setuid to paul succeeded
Mar 17 17:09:04 jupiter spamd[7819]: processing message
<OAEGJMOGEKPEGCNHFDFFGEMLCDAA.in spector(_dot_)us(_at_)someotherisp(_dot_)com>
for
paul:1001. Mar 17 17:09:09 jupiter spamd[7819]: clean message
(-11.0/5.0) for paul:1001 in 4.5 seconds, 4026 bytes.
The Fetchmail FAQ mentioned adding the -i switch for SIGPIPE errors but
that seemed more related to fetchmail -> sendmail (but I tried it
anyway, and it didn't help).
Any suggestions?
