Package: fetchmail
Version: 6.2.5-12
Severity: important
I'm running fetchmail in daemon mode, from a DSL connexion. It connects
to various (5) mail servers, in IMAP and POP modes. After a while, fetchmail
fails to connect everytime to every server. I have to restart it:
/etc/init.d/fetchmail restart
and then it works instantly (so it rules out a simultaneous failure of
all mail servers, as well as a DSL failure). It happens rougly once per
week. Excerpt of /var/log/mail.log:
