Dear subscribers
I have downloaded remote email to local Red Hat 7.1 using fetchmail.
The download was successful with termination status 0. I have been
using fetchmail and having no problem.
Problem was:
I have wrong entered local user name (which does not exists) and
postmaster as "postmaster", please see my fetchmail conf file below.
Question:
Where all the emails gone, I can't trace it.?!?
Dear Konzack
You getting nearest to the point!! Yes "postmaster" is not exists on the
machine! But it did not gone to /var/mail/root either!!
I don't understand your explanation for no. 2 below :-(
If the $USER does not exist, there are two possibilities:
1) The mails is gone to /var/mail/root
2) Because the non-existant $USER, the message is bounced
with an Error and has been deleted on the Server
Please help and thank you.
