Dear All I know that this has been discussed on the list before but the previous threads have not been helpful to me, nor has the relevant documentation. I would like to use fetchmail to, well, fetch my mail, but leave it on the server. If I configure the MTA with YaST (SuSE 9.1), I cannot enter any user options, so I edited /etc/fetchmailrc by hand, and added "keep" to the user options. Fetchmail then complains that having both "keep" and "fetchall" as options is incorrect, but I didn't specify "fetchall" and I don't know where that parameter is specified - certainly not in /etc/fetchmailrc. So, I added "no fetchall" to the options as well, but this made no difference. I had the same problems if I set the configuration in /root/.fetchmailrc (which didn't previously exist). Giving up on this approach, I tried fetchmailconf and entered the appropriate options with no problems, but I then get errors complaining that two instances of fetchmail are running, even if I disable the daemon in the runlevel editor, then start it manually. Put simply, I would rather just do this via YaST, but I need to get rid of the "fetchall option." How do I do this? (and why is this such a pain in the neck?) Can anyone point me to some relatively simple documentation that gives an overview of mail configuration in Linux (and perhaps SuSE in particular). Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
