Fetchmail itself is independent of cron - it doesn't use it for scheduling (at least in the configurations I use (fcron). You can cron fetchmail, buts that's not normal. cron programs by default have a very stripped down environment which is the usual cause of cron errors - can be hard to identify whats missing. If its something like emailing an error log or test commands: run the commands from the error message manually, then via a test cron entry to narrow it down. Try grep'ing /etc to find the actual commands. BillK
