Don't know if it is a problem with Yahoo server, but the foll- owing may be tried to force deletion. o Check what options are enabled when you run fetchmail. Do a: $fetchmail -V | less o There are three options which can tinker with the defaults: a) --all off (new messages retrieved only) b) --keep off (delete fetched messages) c) --flush on (flush old messages before retrieval) All these options can be enabled through command line or thro- ough .fetchmailrc. Check out man pages for details.
