Here's what I'm using in .fetchmailrc (it works for me, at least): poll <isp_adress> proto pop3 user <username> password <password> mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d%T" limit 200000
I've also gotten it to work with /usr/bin/formail as MDA. exim and smail are MTAs, not MDAs. hth, Bob On Sat, Jun 19, 1999 at 04:22:52PM -0400, jason and jill wrote: > > > On Sat, 19 Jun 1999, Bob Nielsen wrote: > > > I had a similar problem with smail.
