fetchmail question
Hi... I am trying to retrive mails using fetchmail and then deleiver it locally using sendmail. I found that fetchmail adds the following header in every messages that it retrives from the pop server.

There's two ways of starting fetchmail up that would suit: First, take a look at the documentation for '@reboot' in crontab(5). Copy that line into each user's crontab and you're all set. Second: fetchmail daemon mode has the handy feature that the first time you call fetchmail, it daemonizes and runs continuously from then on. Subsequent attempts to run fetchmail will result in signaling the original fetchmail process to poll the mailservers immediately. That means if you configure the user's mail agents to call fetchmail when they hit the 'check for new mail' button (which usually also gets invoked when the mail client starts up) then fetchmail will be started automatically.
