I have never understood why fetchmail's default operation was to pass to a MTA. Sure, it can be useful in some cases, but most basic usage will do much better directly sending to the MDA. So my advice: unless you want incoming mail, get rid of exim and just use the mda option of fetchmail. Regards, -- Nicolas George
