Package: fetchmail Version: 6.3.18-2 Severity: normal Fetchmail downloads mail for the same user multiple times, back to back.
This happens when a stanza configures multiple different users and is set to "skip" instead of "poll". Under these conditions, a fetch that is manually requested for a *single* user will cause multiple fetches for that same user, for as many times as there are user accounts. To reproduce, use this is the fetchmailrc: skip pop.safe-mail.net protocol imap port 993 interval 3 username "fred.flintst...@safe-mail.net" username "barney.rub...@safe-mail.net" username "wilma.flintst...@safe-mail.net" ssl sslcertck fetchall Then when fetchmail is not running, execute: fetchmail -v -d0 -u fred.flintst...@safe-mail.net pop.safe-mail.net The logs show *3* download sessions for the user fred.flintstone. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.7 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages fetchmail depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii debianutils 3.4 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii libc6 2.11.3-4 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcomerr2 1.41.12-4stable1 common error description library ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.8.3+dfsg-4squeeze6 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries - k ii libkrb5-3 1.8.3+dfsg-4squeeze6 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8o-4squeeze14 SSL shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-23.2squeeze1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip Versions of packages fetchmail recommends: ii ca-certificates 20090814+nmu3squeeze1 Common CA certificates Versions of packages fetchmail suggests: ii fetchmailconf 6.3.18-2 fetchmail configurator ii postfix [mail-transport 2.7.1-1+squeeze1 High-performance mail transport ag ii resolvconf 1.46 name server information handler -- Configuration Files: /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/fetchmail [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/fetchmail' /etc/logcheck/ignore.d.workstation/fetchmail [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.workstation/fetchmail' -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
