I have an registered domain name. The company that hosts my domain name has an application that allows me to forward all my different users email to an single account at my ISP. This was ok when all the email was for me, but now the family also wants to use my domain name. I want to configure the FBSD root account to run fetchmail in daemon mode and retrieve all the email in that single account and post it into each users separate sendmail mailbox. I have the daemon mode working But having hard time making heads or tails out of the fetchmail documentation at http://www.catb.org/~esr/fetchmail/fetchmail-man.html#3 It kind of implies that I have to have an account at my ISP called 'maildrop' for this to work. Is that correct? Would this work user "tomisp" with pass "tom722" is * here How do I change the user statement to do the multdrop thing at my end? Would also like to tell fetchmail to use the syslogd local3 facility to post it's messages to. This is what I an using now. set postmaster "root" set no bouncemail set no spambounce poll mail.xxxxxx.net proto pop3 user "tomisp" there with password "tom722" is "tomFBSD" here Thanks for your help.
