yes. yes. when roger fetches his yahoo or whatever mail, those mails should be injected (by qmail) into /var/qmail/maildirs/roger/Maildir when bill fetches his msn mail, those mails should be injected into /var/qmail/maildirs/bill/Maildir ... ... > > Is this on a per (virtual) user basis or done in an other way? if it's on a per (virtual) basis, does it mean that roger's fetchmailrc resides in /var/qmail/maildirs/roger/.fetchmailrc? and bill's fetchmailrc in /var/qmail/maildirs/bill/.fetchmailrc ? > Next problem: to suck mails you need a cleartext password for every > session.
