Any pointers > greatly appreciated. What version of FreeBSD do you use? I have fetchmail-6.3.2_1 installed on a 6-Stable PC. No problems. Does your rc file have the proper syntax? This is mine: # fetchmailrc set invisible set postmaster "postmaster" set no bouncemail set no spambounce set properties "" set daemon 30 poll localhost with proto IMAP port 22143 user 'myid' there with password 'mypasswd' is \ 'myid' here options fetchall folder INBOX.MYMAILBOX Ah, note that I make use of an ssh-tunnel from localhost port 22143 to port 143 on the imap server. You may want to replace 'localhost' and 22143 by your appropriate settings. However, remember that pop3 and imap is too insecure when not using encryption!
