OK, having finally got fetchmail and sendmail working right I would like
to be able to start up fetchmail as a daemon when my system starts. I
figured (erroneously) that I could just put "fetchmail -f
/etc/fetchmailrc" into rc.local. I've got the /etc/fetchmailrc setup to
start fetchmail in daemon mode and it snags mail from the proper accounts
and such, but on starting the machine up it asks for a password for root
and running ps aux | grep fetch reveals no fetchmail is running. Is there
anyway for me to do this? Or must I start it manually everytime the system
boots?
