hi,

    I been running qmail 1.03, vpopmail, and fetchmail on mandrake 6.1 for
about 5 months now, with no (serious) problems.
however I get the follow errors:
(which are more likely to be fetchmail's [anyone the mailing list address? -
I have no web access!!])

    About to rewrite To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
    Rewritten version is To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

    fetchmail: no local matches, forwarding to postmaster
    fetchmail: forwarding to mclsupport.co.uk
    fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> BODY=8BITMIME
    fetchmail: SMTP< 250 ok
    fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
    fetchmail: SMTP< 250 ok
    fetchmail: SMTP> DATA
    fetchmail: SMTP< 354 go ahead
    #*********fetchmail: terminated with signal 13

The postmaster never gets these mails, they just don't exist. However
because of the 'bomb out' the next time I dial up the same result occurs and
I end up trapped in a loop, of check mail, get the once in the list above
the erroring one, then bomb out.  I only spot this when I get the same mail
every 30 mins. Then have to delete the mail from the ISP's server.

It's currently only the mailing list shown above [that breaks thing], so I
need to know how to block there domain or fix fetchmail/qmail to work
(prefered option).

BTW: I've checked the ISP's message source and it doesn't contain a 'for' in
any of the received section.

If anyone has any ideas (or who to ask), solutions, or even hints on what to
change I would be very grateful..

also BTW:
But during that time ever mail received mail from my ISP produces the
following error: (or something very close -i.e. change the vaules). Does
this show a somehow broken but working qmail/fetchmail

    fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> BODY=8BITMIME
    fetchmail: SMTP< 250 ok
    fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
    fetchmail: SMTP< 250 ok
    fetchmail: SMTP> DATA
    fetchmail: SMTP< 354 go ahead
    #**************************************fetchmail: message 58 was not the
expected length (2300 actual != 2331 expected)
    fetchmail: SMTP>. (EOM)
    fetchmail: SMTP< 250 ok 960810641 qp 29619

the mail loads okay, and gets deleted of the ISP's system, and I assume that
it a functions of using forcecr (see below in the fetchmail rc)


Dot fetchmailrc file:
##### start####

    defaults
    no dns
    user mclsupport
    no keep
    no flush
    forcecr
    pass8bits
    smtphost mclsupport.co.uk
    fetchall

# Use this for production
poll mail.netdirect-online.co.uk with protocol POP3:
    localdomains mclsupport.co.uk mclsupport.ndo.co.uk aka
linekar.hosts.netdirect-online.co.uk
    envelope 1 Received          # required to pickup mailing list stuff
okay from ISP multidrop
    user mclsupport
    password <password> is *;

### end .fetchmailrc file ############
