I have a problem with the fetchmail

name and version of your MTA?

fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:[2]root(_at_)localhost
fetchmail: smtp listener protocol error
fetchmail: not flushed
But when I download any mail from for example
[3]proff(_at_)hotmail(_dot_)com
then
fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL FROM:[4]proff(_at_)hotmail(_dot_)com
fetchmail: SMTP< 250 Ok
fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:[5]admin(_at_)selecmar(_dot_)transnet(_dot_)cu
anyone can I help me?, why the fetchmail does doing that?.
Why is RCPT TO different? Because you have a different .fetchmailrc for the
two.
Why are you getting "protocol error"? Well, fetchmail should be sending
addresses enclosed in angle-brackets, which your transcript implies it is
not, although because you sent a munged HTML mail it's difficult to see for
sure.
But for me I get the angle brackets:
fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL FROM:<b(_dot_)candler(_at_)pobox(_dot_)com> SIZE=1247
fetchmail: SMTP< 250 OK
fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:<brian(_at_)localhost>
fetchmail: SMTP< 250 Accepted
So perhaps you're just running an ancient fetchmail.
