[courier-users] fetchmail issue

[Bill Taroli]

Having recently moved my calls to amavis into a global filter, instead 
of using maildrop, I have noticed something new. I have a few users who 
utilize fetchmail to collect mail from accounts they cannot simply 
auto-forward. In order to get fetchmail working reliably,  we have taken 
to adding an "mda" option specifying "/usr/lib/courier/bin/maildrop". 
But now that the global filter is doing virus scanning, this completely 
circumvents that.

I have tried letting fetchmail simply talk to port 25, but get invalid 
syntax errors out of esmtpd. And using sendmail as an mda gave rise to 
pipe issues. Is there an easy way to get fetch talking further up the 
food chain so that I can ensure virus scanning happens on these 
messages? I expect that SMTP will be the answer, but I'm not entirely 
sure why I'm getting syntax errors either.

  jeff courieresmtpd: [ID 702911 mail.info] started,ip=[::ffff:127.0.0.1]
  jeff courieresmtpd: [ID 702911 mail.error] 
error,relay=::ffff:127.0.0.1,from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: 
513 Syntax error.

I wonder if it might be due to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" as the address fetchmail 
tries to use... but I haven't read enough to figure out how to force 
something else so far. Any ideas?
