OOPS, sorry Mark, I was thinking to other things! In fact my fetchmail is installed. I made a file call FETCHMAIL in /etc/cron.d which options are: */20 12-23,0-3 * * * mail /usr/bin/fetchmail --syslog --fetchmailrc /etc/fetchmailrc (I retrieve mail every 20 minutes, from 1200 to 0300, BUT I'm on a cable-modem) Strangely, I first tryied with 12-3, which refuse to work!
