Mailinglist Archive: opensuse (3767 mails)

[Peter Collier <pecb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A few months ago, I tried to set up mail via yast. (network services -> 
mta.) I got things wrong because I stopped getting mail other than 
local mail and all mail was returned to senders with message something 
like localhost could not accept mail, no such address. So using yast 
again, I selected no connection and this solved the problem. Looking 
through my filesystem today, I noticed that in fetchmailrc, it still 
had my old email address (which I can still get emails from). So I 
changed the entry to my new email address. Since then I've been getting 
fetchmail messages in my in box saying that Fetchmail could not get 
mail from "pecb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" (which I have never had or 
used). I've grepped through my file system and I found a few references 
to my old email address but cannot find any reference to the above 
address. How did that get into fetchmail and other than uninstalling 
fetchmail, how do I cure this?
