Hi
I have the following .fetchmailrc:
poll MYSERVER
via localhost port 1234
protocol pop3
user XXXX
pass "YYYY"
is bader
preconnect "ssh -i ~/.ssh/identity -x -f -L 1234:MYSERVER:110 MYSERVER =
sleep 20 < /dev/null > /dev/null"
When I run "fetchmail -va", fetchmail does not connect to
localhost:1234, instead it connects to localhost:110. But I
don't have a user thomasb on localhost.
I'd like fetchmail to connect to localhost:1234, so the
entire connection to MYSERVER would tunneled and encrypted
using ssh. Any Ideas?
I'm using fetchmail 5.2.3 (the one, which is shipped with
FreeBSD-4.0-CURRENT).
Thomas
