Well, we're not supporting antedeluvian software like that, sorry.

You might want to try fetchmail 6.3.4-rc2 (preferred. alternatively,
6.3.3 or perhaps 6.3.2), but I'm not making promises about IPv6 on old
systems (kernel, libc), and my motivation to work around libc or kernel
bugs in obsolete versions is very limited and I might expect payment for
doing that.

poll mail.*****.co.uk localdomains *****.co.uk *****.co .uk "nokeep" proto

pop.*****.co.uk localdomains *****-uk.com "nokeep" proto POP3
: user ***** with pass "*****" to * here fetchall

Please don't expect me to read unformatted made-up files like these. Of
course you may mask user names and passwords, but I do expect a minimum
level of formatting (read: line breaks and alignment), and please do not
mask domain names because that makes checking DNS impossible.

From what I understand there is something called BlueLinQ which allows you
to install third party software, but I do not want to install fetchmail on
top of its self, causing any problems.

Well... whatever that Bluelinq stuff is.

You can install fetchmail into a separate directory, for instance you
might use: ./configure --with-ssl --enable-NTLM --prefix=/opt/fetchmail-6.3
build with "make all check", install with "make install"
and then run: /opt/fetchmail-6.3/bin/fetchmail -f /your/config/file
(give the real path and name for the configuration file).

HTH,
