Ok I want to set up a backup mail server, and I want my main server to fetch any mail that goes to it.
I’ll have both servers connected to the same DB with my user accounts. In fetchmail configuration there’s an option to use “alllocal” for all local accounts, which’s perfect for me. However, that section specifies a “password” field. What exactly is that field? Are all my accounts supposed to have the same password? Or how does this work? Besides, all passwords are stored as hash, so how is this fetching possible? ……… I just read this: HYPERLINK "http://james.apache.org/server/fetchmail_configuration_2_2.html#alllocal"ht tp://james.apache.org/server/fetchmail_configuration_2_2.html#alllocal So all accounts must have the same password, huh? Not very secure, why even implement this sort of thing? Does anybody have a setup with a backup mail server? How do you do it? -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
