Sridhar,
Before you file a bug-report do:
$fetchmail --version > fetchmail.log
Study the default settings carefully. Probably, you will
get pointers from there about things which may have gone wrong.
In case you want to file a bug report, the steps are:
o Send bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
o When reporting bugs, include the following:
- Your operating system and compiler version.
- A copy of your POP or IMAP server's greeting line.
- The name and version of the SMTP listener or MDA
you are forwarding to.
- Any command-line options you used.
- The output of fetchmail -V called with whatever
other command-line options you used.
- your .fetchmailrc
- A transcript of the failed session with -v -v
(yes, that's two -v options, enabling debug mode)
Don't know if you have compiled from source. This info
is present in the FAQ of the source tarball. Maybe there in
the binary package of your distro as well ... This info is
from my tarball compile done over a year ago (ver 5.4.0) !!
things may have changed since then :-(
HTH
