I have a dialup connection to my ISP. On the Windows side of things, I use Eudora to download my mail. I gather that on Linux, the standard is Fetchmail. I've read through the man page; is there an option to set so that fetchmaiil will delete messages after a certain number of days, like in Eudora?
And what exactly is UIDL? Does it allow me to control what messages is download to my computer according to what is already download, instead of what is marked as new on the server? This would be very handy, because I read mail from several machines. BG
