[fetchmail]weird fetchmail use!

2004-04-14 18:29:32
Hello,

I would like to know, or at least be told what to read, to get this weird configuration going. What I would like to do is something like this. I have an email account on a server called orbis, I can access it via pop and imap (currently I use imap so I can store mails on server and access it from several locations at work). In orbis, I do not have administrator rights, couldn't find procmail, and I'm not sure wich MTA it is running. I have this other server, terra, in which I have full root access. What I would like to do is fetch mail from orbis process it in terra with antivirus/spam/procmail/etc and then restore it to orbis to be accessed as always... I would think that a combination of fetchmail+procmail could do the trick, but I have no clue as to avoid entering an endless loop fetching the mails I already processed and reprocess them all over again. Also I'm pretty sure you'll need a little more information on the versions and software. On terra anything is possible, on orbis, I can make the necesaries inquiries, but would appreciate to know what to ask for...


Thanks,
Javier.
