Thank you for a quick reply.
my /etc/resolv.conf file
<resolv_conf>
nameserver 192.168.0.1
<resolv_conf>
It contains the ip address of the gateway / dns
server. For browsing I define 192.168.0.3 or 2 in
proxy's addresses.
It's one or the other. Pick whichever gives you reliable DNS resolution.
I asked the admin of ISA server, he told me that they
are using Socks4 on their server.
Yesterday I tried using runsocks (sock5) but I just
couldn't understand it properly. Any guidlines or
hints or online links for help in this ?
Check the documentation. You should also find that runsocks will work
with a v4 proxy.
The ISA admin has opened all these ports for me.
Even after going through the above I was not able to
fetchmail (same canonical dns name).
Which means that your only problem is getting your DNS resolution
sorted, which isn't a fetchmail issue, but a linux configuration
issue. Get your DNS resolution working, with a single DNS server, and
it'll all work fine.
