If so, you can have fetchmail go over the tunnel. Alternatively,

fetchmail sends messages to port 25 via SMTP whereas
mutt wants to read messages in /var/mail/peter.
Isn't exim needed to send the port 25 stream into

My fetchmail seems wedged.
Usually this is cause by somebody faking a domain

Does anybody know how to flush this email or
get my fetchmail to fetch it?
Smail is my MTA (mail transport agent).
I recall it is the thing that flag the spam and
plugs up fetchmail.
