Firstly thanks to those who helped in my DNS/sendmail problems - I think its
sorted!!
I have written fetchmailrc scripts before and they worked but I'm having
problems now where the script seems to work but extremely slowly,
It looks like this :
Poll server.housenet
Protocol pop3
Username "stee"
Password "mysecret"
Is there something wrong here that I'm looking straight past?
Or is this a DNS thing again, I'm running mandrake 7.1 and connecting to a
small windows mailserver, which is working fine
When I try to set up the fetchmailrc in webmin it gives no errors and still
when I type in fetchmail from the console (logged in as stee) it tells me
how many mails I have and the octets (dunno why I need to know about
octets - thought they were for music notation) and starts downloading the
firstmail and just takes ages after that, when I ctrl-C it, I do get the
first mail in my mbox but there all small mails it should all happen in the
blink of an eye??
Any one??
