Thanks again, if I didn't thank you before. I simply reverted, left it that way & forgot all about it till I noticed that Fetchmail needs Python-2 only when using 'tk'. Wanting to eliminate Py-2 ASAP, I emerged Fetchmail 6.4.1 & ran into the same problem. Eventually, I also noticed that 'sslproto' needs an argument (red face) & added the '' . Now it's fetching mail again (big smile). However, my ISP is now sending me an e-mail every 5 min , after Fetchmail checks for mail : From: "(Cron Daemon)" <purslow@***> To: purslow@*** Subject: Cron <purslow@localhost> test -e /var/run/dhcpcd.pid && /usr/bin/fetchmail -s 2> /dev/null fetchmail: Query status=2 (SOCKET) Can anyone tell me how to suppress these msgs ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
