This looks good to me. But it gives me errors: 67 messages (67 seen) for joerg_johannes at imap.web.de (folder Posteingang). skipping message [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1 (15645 octets) not flushed <snipping 66 of the same messages> fetchmail: mailbox selection failed fetchmail: client/server synchronization error while fetching from imap.web.de fetchmail: Query status=7 (ERROR) Here is what I have changed my .fetchmailrc to: poll imap.web.de with proto IMAP user 'joerg_johannes' password '++++++++++++' folders Posteingang Amazon Ebay keep Hmm, what's wrong with it? (What is "Query status=7"?) joerg -- Gib GATES keine Chance! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
