I just remerged Fetchmail to be sure, but 'fetchmailconf' doesn't work :

  669: ~> fetchmailconf
  Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/fetchmailconf.py", line 2103, in 
<module>
  hostname = socket.gethostbyaddr(socket.gethostname())[0]
socket.error: unknown address family

I suspect Fetchmail is somewhat neglected : is there an alternative ?

Otherwise, thanks for the various responses.
I now understand what's going on & will defer Python 2.7 till year-end.
