Hi, I have set up an Ubuntu machine as I have set other Debian machines with fetchmail and dovecot. I must have fumbled something in some configuration file because my mail ends up in /var/mail/<username>.
Here is the output of dovecot -n # 1.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-39-generic i686 Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS ext4 log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:/home/%u/Maildir mbox_write_locks: fcntl dotlock auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd Here is fetchmailrc (with passwords changed) # Configuration created Sat May 26 22:14:17 2007 by fetchmailconf 1.52 $Revision: 4740 $ set postmaster "paul" set bouncemail set no spambounce set properties "" set daemon 60 poll mail.ultrasw.com with proto POP3 user 'waterho...@ultrasw.com' there with password 'secret' is 'paul' here TIA for any ideas, Paul Scott -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
