I am having problems with fetch mail actually fetching email. The server has
pops and imaps setup at the moment, I'd like to use pop (various reasons) but
I think using imap is better for troubleshooting.
I know there is mail waiting in /var/spool/mail/luke, it's in mbox format
(just using uw-imap - don't want courier as this is only a temporary storage
server and not used by normal users - MX2 - hence the fetching).
my fetchmailrc is:
poll mailserver.com with proto imap
username blah is blah here password whatever ssl nokeep fetchall
and it authenticates fine, but says there is no mail for the user:
I'm using debian's fetchmail ver 5.9.11+NTLM+SDPS+SSL+NLS (also compiled the
latest - same result).
one intresting line in fetchmail -V :
Default mailbox selected
what is this default mailbox, what is it's location, and how to I force it to
look at /var/spool/mail/mbox?
