I have solved the previous problem, now there is a new problem. When I click

message, but no messages are downloaded !
I have all the messages stored in /home/nikhil folder but unable to download
it using Outlook.

I am able to retrieve mails from the remote server using
fetchmail, but I am
unable to download it on Microsoft Outlook on a clients pc.
1. I have given the internal ip of the linux gateway (running
fetchmail) in
the pop setting in Outlook (ie. 172.16.0.1) .
2. Whenever outlook starts synchronizing, it asks for the username and
passoword. Doesn't accept it although it is right.
Well, it looks like you don't have a problem with fetchmail in that
case. Your problem probably lies in one of:
1) Your local SMTP server
2) Your local POP server
3) Your authentication configuration for your POP server
4) Your Outlook configuration
If you'd made the effort to provide some useful information (such as
what operating system your fetchmail system uses, what local SMTP and
POP server software you're using, what errors are in your mail log...) I
might have been able to narrow it down further. As it is you've only
provided enough information to suggest that fetchmail is doing it's job
just fine and that this list is not your best source of help...
PLEASE - keep list traffic on the list. Email sent directly to me may
be ignored utterly.
