I had a lot of trouble getting fetchmail (particulary with procmail)
running under Venus.
The first thing to do is to have a look in /var/log/maillog after you've
downloaded mail. That'll tell us the problem.
The fix may be replacing /usr/bin/smrsh with /bin/sh in sendmail.cf, or
futzing with the sendmail relaying rules. Can't really tell without the
maillog output though.
