poll md2.vsnl.net.in with proto pop3
user me with password mypass is me@myhost
smtphost myhost
fetchall
the above is the config i use for fetchmailrc
and invokes fetchmail from ip-up.local with
/usr/bin/fetchmail --invisible -f /etc/mail/.fetchmailrc
with this setup, the mails are flushed one by one on download
and if it happens so that one mail creates a problem (or the line drops)
the download next time will start at the error mail only, all those
previously
downloaded will not exist on the server.
