I suddenly remembered I put access restrictions on this ssh key in my authorized_keys file at the remote host, so if someone somehow stole my key used to download email they would be restricted in what they can do. Including no-pty. A nice friendly message would have been nice though, as opposed to a hanging connection :-(. Thanks everyone who tried to help me. Now getting my email again (in fact it was working all the time, but I disabled the cron job when I saw interactive sessions weren't working :-( ). -- Brian May <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
