I have never seen the above error message. I have been successful using the the following .fetchmailrc file: set logfile /var/log/fetchmail.log set invisible # suppress "Received:" line fetchmail adds set no bouncemail poll "my.server.net" # *** change as appropriate *** protocol pop3 username "MyUserName" # *** change as appropriate *** password "MyPassword" # *** change as appropriate *** fetchall nokeep # delete successfully received messages mda "/usr/local/bin/procmail -d %T" # pass message to the local MDA Is your .fetchmailrc file similar to the above?
