I thought I could put the fetchmailrc in the root directory and the command to start the daemon in my rc.local. On boot up I keep getting the message mailserver not specified. If I log in as root and issue the command fetchmail -d 30 everything works fine. I though that the fetchmail in rc.local would look to the root directory for the .fetchmailrc file?
