Unsure
I can not see what is wrong with your config, but I thought I whould post mine that works just incease it would help:
Code:
# Configuration created Wed Sep 29 13:03:47 2004 by fetchmailconf |
Thanks ,
It is " set properties "" ". If you have " " after set properties it does not give any error. Though I have not that in any tutorials. So do you have any explaination for that ? Varun |
I don't have a set properties line at all, but I am using an old version in Mandrake 9.1 on my server. I wonder what function it has? A quick Google finds others with the same question and no definite answers, other than when present it should be set to ""

why the keyword of "with"
Quote:
Hi Experts, I have no idea why to insert keyword 'with' I read other manual that the line can be written as:- poll pop.gmail.com proto POP3 service 995 user 'myname@gmail.com' password 'mypass' is 'localuser' here ssl keep fetchall Other doubt is any sequence of options? For example "ssl keep fetchall" is identical to "keep ssl fetchall"? |
