Has anyone else seen these problems? Can anyone suggest how I might reconfigure sendmail to not get hung up on hotmail messages?

Oh yes, here is a section of fetchmal's log: fetchmail: reading message 1 of 29 (3014 octets) fetchmail: About to rewrite Return-Path: ^M Rewritten version is Return-Path: ^M fetchmail: About to rewrite From: ca485crdg2p@hotmail.com^M Rewritten version is From: ca485crdg2p@hotmail.com^M

In your fetchmail configuration file, you might try the "forcecr" or "stripcr" options. I had trouble with some e-mail messages until I started using "forcecr". Here's an example: poll mail.server protocol POP3 user internet is me fetchall forcecr -- Robert Wohlfarth rjwohlfar@galaxyinternet.net "Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?" -- Matthew 6:25b
