few days ago I install SuSE-7, due to my small harddrive space I don't install X-windows. I'm complete newbie and I start journey in Linux world with SuSE. I do hope, I find help to learn SuSE.
My problem is to get email from my ISP server. I use yast2 to configure wvdial. wvdial works well. I'm able to send email but problem to received. Here I use fetchmail . I read manpage of fetchmail. after got internet connection I use this command in my /home/partha , but fetchmail give me error, I don't understand what's happen.please help me to solve this problem.
fetchmail -K pop.spnetctg.com enter password of partha@pop.spnetctg.com : [ i enter password here ] fetchmail: IMAP connection to pop.spnetctg.com failed: Connection refused 23 message for partha at pop.spnetctg.com (74621 octets) reading message 1 of 23 (3797 octets) .... fetchmail : SMTP connect to localhost failed fetchmail: SMTP transcation error while fetching from pop.spnetctg.com fetchmail : Query status = 10 (smtp)
FYI, I only edit /etc/resolv.conf , no other files. DO I NEED TO EDIT MORE FILE, WHICH FILES AND HOW.
It seems that you don't have MDA installed to listen on the SMTP port to deliver th mail locally. Install sendmail (series n) and configure it using YaST. Alternatively, you can also install procmail (series n) and configure fetchmail to use it as a mda by adding "mda '/usr/bin/procmail -d partha'" to the poll rule of the fetchmail config (read procmail's man page).
