Many thanks for your advices user2 is ok now ! for user1 I have the bash script: "facteur": (postman in french) fetchmail --mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d %T" and for user2 the script : "getmes": fetchmail I change "getmes" like "facteur" and now user2 can fetch her (my daughter) mails. (I notice that exim is not as fussy as exim4.) Thanks again. -- Gerard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
