use fetchmail -d <number of seconds to check email> and you can use ps -auxw | grep fetchmail to see if the process is running.
i.e. fetchmail -d 60 will ch3eck every 60 seconds -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Daniel A. Chartrand Sent: Friday, June 06, 2003 11:43 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Fetchmail, daemon or cron? I have created a /home/someuser/.fetchmailrc file. QUESTION: In Redhat 9, is there a Daemon that automatically checks for mail or do i need to do a Cron job? I would like the mail to be checked every few minutes. If there is a Daemon for fetchmail that accomplishes what i need, how can i verify that it is working and what is the interval of checks? If not, what are some best practices for Cron?
