fetchmail error
With the latest woody version of fetchmail (5.9.0-4), fetchmail hangs
when trying to retrieve a message. This just started a few days ago
after an upgrade. I tried manually retrieving a message and also tried
getmail and was able to retrieve messages normally. Here is a script
of what transpired:
Script started on Mon Oct 1 09:19:09 2001
$ fetchmail -avv
