Make sure the /etc/fetchmailrc file in /etc is readable by the fetchmailrc user... Also, refer to the syslog (/var/log/syslog) for error messages. There is also "/etc/init.d/fetchmail debug-run" in the newest fetchmail packages which may be able to help you. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
