Works for me. > Apparently the problem can be reproduced on systems where > /etc/resolv.conf is a dummy (for instance, on systems with just a > modem) when fetchmail is started. To reproduce the problem I simply remove all nameservers from resolv.conf, restart fetchmail, re-add the nameservers to resolv.conf and awaken fetchmail. Previously to this fix, whenever fetchmail was awakened it would fail with "Temporary failure in name resolution" until restarted. With this I think there is no need for /etc/resolvconf/update-libc.d/fetchmail any more. On the other hand, it's actually nice to awaken fetchmail whenever the network connection changes, so that mail is retrieved as soon as a new link is established.
