This won't work, as I've just found out. The bash man page states that parameter expansion is performed after tilde expansion and obviously $user is not a valid login name (at least not for our purposes). In fact, when I had this implemented on my old machine I used the following instead > if [ -f /home/$user/.fetchmailrc ]; then which works perfectly. Tried to be more generic this time, oh well.
