Hi, I have been playing around with fetchmail the last couple of days and cant get it to act right. I start it as a daemon with the following command line: fetchmail --invisible --uidl -d 300 and my .fetchmailrc file looks like this: poll xpressnet.net proto pop3 user mceder pass * keep When I start fetchmail, it retrieves ALL messages on the server, no matter if they have been polled before or not. Now, If I get a message during this time it comes down fine, and the next time it does not download it again. If I shut down fetchmail, either using fetchmail --quit or simply killing the process, and then start it back up again.. bang, it downloads ALL the messages again!! Any ideas? - Mikael Cederberg mceder@airmail.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
