i  hate to bother ya but I was following the howto on your site (by the way is awesome ) for setting up mail.
for the most part everything went well ...however... this is my problem i bought a domain name and have mail serving for that domain from my 4.3 FBSD box...but
my clients cant check thier other (not from my domain) mail accounts when specifiing my mail server ...BUT they can get thier mail  when they specifiy thier ISP's mail server.....they authenticate on my server fine...but it doesnt get thier mail for them ... ..im pretty sure its someting with the .fetchmailrc file in root
below is the .fetchmailrc   file in question.  any thoughts ??

## Fetchmail configuration for darkseed.bmyster.com
set postmaster me
poll pop3.cybertours.com proto pop3:
  user Pxxxx pass xxx:
  is me here
#or
#  to me root www webmaster here
set postmaster me
poll pop3.cybertours.com proto pop3:
  user Pxxxx pass xxxx:
  is me here

ps: I edited the usernames for safty sake


Thanks for your help
