Fetchmail problem
Hi Linux Gurus,
I've searched the net; trying to find answers to my questions but for a couple of weeks can't find what I needed to fix my problem. Hope you can help me.
I configured Sendmail 8.12.9 unded RH 9 and use fetchmail to retrieve mails from my ISP.
I had a problem whenever I invokied fetchmail -v as follows:
[root@webmail root]# fetchmail -v
fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying 203.x.x.x (protocol POP3) at Wed 17 Dec 2003 04:15:52 PM PHT: poll started
fetchmail: POP3< +OK Qpopper (version 4.0.5) at POPD starting.
fetchmail: POP3> CAPA
fetchmail: POP3< +OK Capability list follows
fetchmail: POP3< TOP
fetchmail: POP3< USER
fetchmail: POP3< LOGIN-DELAY 0
fetchmail: POP3< EXPIRE 0
fetchmail: POP3< UIDL
fetchmail: POP3< RESP-CODES
fetchmail: POP3< AUTH-RESP-CODE
fetchmail: POP3< X-MANGLE
fetchmail: POP3< X-MACRO
fetchmail: POP3< X-LOCALTIME Wed, 17 Dec 2003 16:16:31 +0800
fetchmail: POP3< IMPLEMENTATION Qpopper-version-4.0.5
fetchmail: POP3< .
fetchmail: POP3> USER my_user
fetchmail: POP3< +OK Password required for my_user.
fetchmail: POP3> PASS *
fetchmail: POP3< +OK my_user has 1 visible message (0 hidden) in 979 octets.
fetchmail: POP3> STAT
fetchmail: POP3< +OK 1 979
fetchmail: POP3> LAST
fetchmail: POP3< +OK 1 is the last read message.
1 message (1 seen) for my_user at 203.x.x.x (979 octets).
skipping message my_user@203.x.x.x not flushed
fetchmail: POP3> QUIT
fetchmail: POP3< +OK Pop server at POPD signing off.
fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying 203.x.x.x (protocol POP3) at Wed 17 Dec 2003 04:15:55 PM PHT: poll completed
fetchmail: normal termination, status 1
Here's my /root/.fetchmailrc:
set postmaster "postmaster"
set bouncemail
set properties ""
#set daemon 60
poll mail.gte.net with proto POP3
username "my_user" password "my_password" is myuser
here warnings 3600
antispam 571 550 501 554
What would I do to fix the problem? where did the mail go when delivered? Would fetchmail directs mail to /var/spool/mail by default?
Sory for these few questions it's really my first time to configure mail server.
Thanks in advance.

Yes fecmaill is loading the mail it recives under /var/spool/mail.... Try just to have thees 2 lines in your fetchmailrc....
And paste in the output..Code:poll mail.gte.net with proto POP3 username "my_user" password "my_password" is myuser
