[fetchmail]slow/no performance with uunet/mci dial-up

2005-11-01 20:18:16
Hi,

I'm running fetchmail 6.2.5+SSL+NLS.  It works great when connected to
the Internet via broadband.  It also worked fine last year with
dial-up from a few ISPs including MCI/uunet.  But for the last several
months when connected via MCI/uunet only one or two messages are read
(*very* slowly) and then fetchmail quits.  This happens with even very
short messages as shown below.  The PPP connection is usually 24-33k,
and while not fast, loads web pages at the speed expected for dial-up.
Any advice on how to troubleshoot this?

Ron
