Yep, put that stuff (that I snipped) into .fetchmailrc in your home directory, and add something like this to your /etc/ppp/ip-up fetchmail -f /home/jeff/.fetchmailrc That will run fetchmail once each time you connect, to have it keep checking mail while you're online, add '-d xxx' to the command above. 'xxx' is the interval (in seconds) between mail checks. For example, -d 600 will call fetchmail once every 10 minutes. If you use the -d option, you will want to put "fetchmail -q" in your /etc/ppp/ip-down file. to stop it when you disconnect. ------------------------------------------------------ hypnos <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
