Hi, Sorry that I am bothering you time and again.
But, I tried your suggestion: # popmaildir --help BusyBox v1.15.3 (2010-03-10 12:08:26 KST) multi-call binary Usage: popmaildir [OPTIONS] Maildir [connection-helper ...] # see this output is quite un-informative for a newbie like me. I tried your other suggestion and got some error: # popmaildir -k /var/spool/mail -- nc pop.gobizmail.com 110 User: Password: popmaildir: can't open 'tmp/946685349380000.1114.(none)': No such file or directory popmaildir: helper killed by signal 15 # Here, I enter the username and password at the prompt and then throws the error message. I don't understand where the SIGTERM is coming from. any idea why this kind of thing happens? Some info about my environment might be useful to help me better. So, I am using a board which has ARC architecture based processor (this arch does not comply with any of the well known i386/ARM/MIPS etc). This board we bring up with Linux Kernel 2.6.19 & run busybox for all the general linux utilities. This board connects on wi-fi to internet and all I have is a console for checking the board. By the way, no users on this system. Obviously the console opens in root mode.
