I upgraded libc6_2.1, libwraster1, xlib6g from potato so I could upgrade to wmaker_0.60. While I was at it I upgraded gnome to the latest in potato. After that, I ran fetchmail, then tried to get my mail using Netscape. Netscape told me I didn't have any new messages. After 5 or 10 minutes, the mail appeared. I didn't have this problem prior to the upgrade.
I can get my mail right away if I run "runq", so I think the problem is that smail is queing the mail instead of running in foreground, but I can't find where the delivery_modes is set. I looked at the /etc/smail/config file but didn't see it there. Tried adding it but that didn't help. Looked at /etc/smail/crontab, I don't want to screw with queing. Hmmm. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
