-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have logged directly into my popmail server (yahoo) via the web and find that the spam message isn't being repeatedly sent - the same message is causing a problem over and over. Yahoo tagged it as spam and put it in my bulk mail folder on their site. When fetchmail retrieved messages, it would apparently have problems with that message and send me the error message email instead of the actual spam.
I am not sure why...is there a way to fix fetchmail so it wont do this anymore? Instead of having a problem with a message and sending me a bazillion error messages every time it sees the undelivered/undeliverable message/spam, can I not just set fetchmail to dump the message? If I had not logged directly into the yahoo webmail site and deleted the spam message there, fetchmail would continue generating that annoying message forever, procmail would have had to process that same message forever, and yet the original message would still exist on the server. For the moment, I have elected to turn off yahoo's spamguard and let my system handle the crap and hope that whatever the problem was, it will now be handled properly and directly on my end. praedor On Monday 20 October 2003 08:11 am, Praedor Atrebates wrote: > Here is the syslog entry associated with this repetitive spam (based on the > [EMAIL PROTECTED] message): [...] - -- "Our ship is in the hands of pilots who are steering directly under full sail for a rock.
