Hello:
I've had fetchmail working beautifully for a while now. Out of
nowhwere, having done nothing to my system, fetchmail suddenly is
broken! Here is my ~/.fetchmailrc
poll students.uiuc.edu
proto imap
user <username>
pass <password>
no flush
fetchall
smtp localhost
And when I try to execute fetchmail -v, I get the following output:
crh3019:~% fetchmail -v

Also -- I'm running Exim, and have been for quite a while. I did a
little snooping on DejaNews, and folks usually say that sendmail needs
to be running... I don't have a sendmail process, but does exim
create one anyway?
Thanks for any help!
Matt
