How does it matter which machine initiates the TCP connection? I had posted a solution a few weeks before. Run fetchmail on the g/w machine from a script as: if fetchmail -c server.name; then fetchmail -a server.name fi Or, if your online machine knows how to find your g/w machine, then run fetchmail on your gateway as: fetchmail --proto etrn server.name (Won't work if the online server doesn't queue mails for you; ie, if it delivers the mails locally to a catch all mailbox).
