In daemon mode, fetchmail puts itself in background and runs forever, querying each specified host and then sleeping for the given polling interval. An example would be: fetchmail -d 900 It is possible to do it through .fetchmailrc for individual users using "set daemon <duration>". Kindly look up the man pages/ FAQ.

There can be problems if remote terminfo or termcap entry for your type is not compatible with yours, and can usually be avoided by explicitly exporting: $export TERM='vt100' ####<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>#################################### : _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ linux-india-help mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-india-help
