As I said before, the poster's set up is exactly the same as mine. We use fetchmail in multidrop mode to deliver locally to each individual user here. It sounds like you know a lot more about mail , headers, etc. etc. etc. then I do, however be careful saying things like 'guaranteed to misdeliver mail'. The set up he's describing CAN and DOES work just fine. I've been running is since RHL 5.2. To the original poster: Read up on fetchmail in multi-drop mode. I've read all the warnings people have given about using this mode over the years, but here, it just works. Certainly worth a try. --- Edward Dekkers (Director) Triple D Computer Services P/L -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
