No, I won't have problems with fetchmail. I just have to start it. At the moment, I have it disabled while I worked through the dovecot issues, in order to protect my new email. I've been doing all my email, over the past week, using POP on my notebook computer.
Looks like I spoke too soon. Fetchmail is pulling in the mail and I can read it with the mail command when logged in as the user, but it's not appearing in my dovecot server.
The dovecot 2 supplied by openSUSE is designed so that you do not touch any of the supplied configuration files, but instead edit only "/etc/dovecot/local.conf". This way you keep the distributiohn files intact, and carry over a single file with your own modifications, that should be few. Dovecot 2 config also uses something called "namespaces", so you have to be careful with that. A setting might not apply globally. And in order to find out the actual configuration it is using, you run "doveconf -N". So you could post the output you get now and we have a look ;-) Also, we have to consider how you have fetchmail set... -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
