From fetchmail(1): fetchmail is a mail-retrieval and forwarding utility; it fetches mail from remote mailservers and forwards it to your local (client) machine's delivery system. In other words, you need an MTA for fetchmail to send the mail to, all the MTA needs to be configured to do is local delivery. > > or your firewall is > > blocking port 25 connections from localhost. > > I doubt that's the issue because kmail is working fine on this system. I don't use kmail, but I'm pretty sure it uses SMTP (port 25) on a remote system or /usr/sbin/sendmail on the local system. -- --------------------------------+----------------------------------- Byron Clark | http://www.byronandannie.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://bits.byronandannie.net --------------------------------+----------------------------------- GnuPG Fingerprint: 0365 6979 6C3E BC0C 56C0 FB7F 12B3 75DD 042B EA68
