Hi all,
I am working on a fresh install of Mandrake 9.2, fetchmail was working
as of this AM just fine, so I don't know if something is wrong with
Mandrake or if something has changed coincidentally with my ISP, but I
am seeing behaviour I have never seen before. Below is the output of
fetchmail -v, the line at the end is where it hangs and no mail is ever
retrieved. No doubt, I have had problems with this ISP in the past, but
I don't know how to narrow this down to Mandrake being fuxored somehow
(I can't see how that would be, I've tried the default RPM that comes
with 9.2, which is fetchmail 6.2.4, and I've tried to build and use the
latest, 6.2.5, and I get the same result), or if it's the ISP, or what.
My ~/.fetchmailrc has not changed, it is a direct copy of the one I was
using with MDK 9.1.
Any help greatly appreciated, this is really frustrating me, especially
if someone can tell me what that last line might mean.
Thanks!
