Maybe it helps if you add the options "fetchall flush" to your .fetchmailrc configuration file? No that does not help. I've had a similar problem some years ago and I think this was the solution. See "man fetchmail" for the corresponding command line options (and you could probably add -v to see what's actually going on). I see e.g.: fetchmail: IMAP> A0021 FETCH 14 RFC822.HEADER fetchmail: IMAP< * 14 FETCH (RFC822.HEADER {4833} reading message mexas@epo.bris.ac.uk:14 of 14 (4833 header octets) fetchmail: SMTP> MAIL FROM:<fsde_1e2ciclos@mrsevangelineschafers.localdomain> BODY=8BITMIME SIZE=5930 fetchmail: SMTP< 553 5.1.8 <fsde_1e2ciclos@mrsevangelineschafers.localdomain>...

Don't even try to send bounce-mail to the originator. *end quote* I do get error 553 here, but the emails are not deleted from the server. I tried running fetchmail dosens of times, but this email (and others, about 15 in total), just wouldn't go away, and I cannot get those either. Maybe I should ask in fetchmail lists. Thanks Anton
