[ILUG] fetchmail

[ILUG] fetchmail

List,

I had fetchmail and sendmail working grand for the last while. For work 
releated reasons I have to upgrade my Distro, was using SuSE 6.4, Now using 
the latest Slackware.

I reconfigured sendmail and fetchmail using the script from the ILUG home 
page. But now when fetchmail polls my mail server and see's that there is 
mail there I get the following in the fetchmail.log 

fetchmail: reading message 1 of 1 (1380 octets) fetchmail: SMTP connect to 
localhost failed
fetchmail: can't raise the listener; falling back to $procmail -d %Tsh: -d: 
command not found
fetchmail: MDA exited abnormally or returned nonzero status
fetchmail:  not flushed
fetchmail: 5.8.6 querying muireann (protocol POP3) at Fri Oct  5 16:48:08 2001
fetchmail: 1 message for corcoraj at muireann.ie.logica.com (1391 octets).
fetchmail: reading message 1 of 1 (1391 octets) sh: -d: command not found
fetchmail: SIGPIPE thrown from an MDA or a stream socket error
fetchmail: socket error while fetching from muireann
fetchmail: Query status=2 (SOCKET)

Now is this a fetchmail or is my sendmail configured incorrectly?
- 
Thanks
Jason.
