Hi, Gerald.

I solved that issue about duplicate entries in the otrs' crontab file. I
should've deleted */otrs/var/cron* folder. After, I created it again by
copying default directory from otrs.tar.gz source and installing all the
cronjobs again.

Although this part was solved, the problem with fetch e-mails through
*otrs.PostMasterMailbox.pl* still happening.

I also realized that others scripts like *otrs.GenericAgent.pl
<http://otrs.GenericAgent.pl> *are with the same behavior. When I try to
run them by myself on the linux shell, the following message shows up:


*Segmentation fault.*

Any idea ?

Can be some Perl issue ?


Best Regards,

Willian Silva.
