After compiling kernel 2.2.10 and trying to install new software, I got:
make all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/pollywog/ksnuffle-0.2'
Making all in libpcap-0.4
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/pollywog/ksnuffle-0.2/libpcap-0.4'
gcc -g -I. -Ilinux-include -DHAVE_MALLOC_H=1 -DHA
Here's what I'm using in .fetchmailrc (it works for me, at least):
poll proto pop3 user password mda
"/usr/bin/procmail -d%T" limit 20
I've also gotten it to work with /usr/bin/formail as MDA. exim and
smail are MTAs, not MDAs.
