background process popping up in foreground
I am running bash v3.2.17 and when I try to run a process like fetchmail in the background (fetchmail &) it just pops up in the foreground saying how many messages it is downloading and if I hit the return key I get the shell prompt for a second and then fetchmail pops up again - is there any way to put the process in the background permanently until the job is done?
