i mean, if you are [EMAIL PROTECTED], you could send

Hi everyone,
I've decided to give up on passing commandline options to fetchmail and
write a .fetchmailrc.
I don't have anything listening on port 25 so my fetchmail commandline
was:
"fetchmail -K -a -u [username] -d 600 -m "/usr/bin/procmail -d
mary" [server]
This worked fine.

You know, I am not 100% sure, but I believe you have to have a domain

never seen it done that way.

on what MTA you're going to use (sendmail? etc?), how
