Hi All! 

Anybody familiar with fetchmail? i got serious problems in multidrop-mode
with mailinglist-mails.

well, i know these problems are known. i know there is a whlole section
about it in the man page. but still, i couldn't make it work. 
the scenario is: i'm retreiving mails for the domain goelz.com from our
provider's mail server via pop3. the multidrop-mail-delivery works fine,
e.g. mails to kherrmann@goelz.com do reach me. even BCCed mails seem to
work. but still, mail sent to mailing lists will not find its way to the
envelope-recipient. they'll end up in the postmasters account. 
my config file looks like this: 

---------------------------------- 
defaults proto pop3 nokeep fetchall 
set no bouncemail 
set daemon 900 
poll mymailhost localdomains goelz.com: 
  envelope 1 received 
  user	xxxxxx	has password   xxxxxx  to * here 

---------------------------------- 

looking at mailing list emails, the 2nd envelope header contains the real
xx@goelz.com address. but still envelope 1 received doesn't work. is it
possible that i can't use multidrop together with localdomains? if so: if
i remove it, no mail is delivered at all. what to do instead? if not: any
idea what could help? i'm sorry but pop3 seems to be pretty much
everything we can do, ETRN won't be possible. please help! 

thanks in advance! 

regards, 
  Klaus
