Hi, Recently I have been doing some mild upgrading. I have upgraded to some packages in
http://http.us.debian.org/debian dists/slink-proposed-updates/ as well as a very few packages in potato (just enough to get the latest apt installed). Anyway, since that time I have started having problems with using fetchmail to download my email from uni. It happily fetches the mail okay, but when I go to read it, they've gone! So I decided to find out what was going on by reading var/log/exim/mainlog and have discovered the following: 1999-08-10 22:56:28 11EBv2-0000b1-00 => [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED] st> R=smarthost T=remote_smtp H=adam.ist.flinders.edu.au [129.96.1.21] 1999-08-10 22:56:28 11EBv2-0000b1-00 Completed 1999-08-10 22:56:29 11EBv5-0000b1-00 => [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED] st> R=smarthost T=remote_smtp H=adam.ist.flinders.edu.au [129.96.1.21] 1999-08-10 22:56:29 11EBv5-0000b1-00 Completed That is, for some reason, the email downloaded from fetchmail is diverted back to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- which is where it came from. That is, fetchmail gets it from uni, and exim sends it straight back there!!! Now this behaviour never used to happen. It used to put it in /var/spool/mail/mark but no more. I thought it must have been due to the fact that I had just upgraded exim from exim_2.05-1_i386.deb to exim_2.05-2_i386.deb, so I decided to downgrade it back to 2.05-1. Unfortunately the problem still remains (unless for some reason the machine needs a reboot before it's affected?) Any ideas? (Please cc any replies directly to my address) Thanks, Mark. _/~~~~~~~~\___/~~~~~~\____________________________________________________ ____/~~\_____/~~\__/~~\__________________________Mark_Phillips____________ ____/~~\_____/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ____/~~\HE___/~~\__/~~\APTAIN_____________________________________________ ____/~~\______/~~~~~~\____________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________ "They told me I was gullible ... and I believed them!"
