Timeout from what? What program issues this? Providing the exact
error always helps...
Well, I get an error like,
fetchmail: timeout after 100 seconds.
fetchmail: socket error while fetching from <ip>
fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying <ip> (protocol POP3) at Wed Dec 22 09:09:45
2004: poll completed
fetchmail: Query status=2 (SOCKET)
I started fetchmail as,
# fetchmail -v -a -f .fetchmailrc1 -t 100
(From yesterday I have started adding -e 1 to it)
What must be wrong? The machine is a mail downloading machine only
and on dial-up. The connection is up when the problem occurs. The
remote server is on a high speed line and I am on dial-up.
