I have a Debian server 'Sarge' with Apache 1.3.33, PHP 4.3, MySQL 4 and Postfix working.

I've installed Fetchmail for the purpose of collecting POP3 mails from my ISP and how do I collect the mails from the Debian server to my XP box using email client like outlook?

This is what I've done:

1. Create a .fetchmailrc file in ~/ directory
2. Edit the .fetchmailrc by adding this:

I'm using john.doe@ntlworld.com as an example
I've already created a user account called 'john'.

3. Tested it by doing this:

# fetchmail -v

I can see that it is working since it is accessing my ISP server and downloading any messages.

What is the next thing I need to configure in order to access my POP3 mails from my XP box?

I would think you just setup your XP machine to fetch from you nix box as if it were a POP source.

I did that before I post in here, which doesn't work.

In outlook, I did this:

XP Box-

Email: john.doe@ntlworld.com
Account: john.doe
Password: NTLWorld's password
pop: 192.168.0.3 <--- Fetchmail
smtp: 192.168.0.3 <--- Postfix

Debian server-

Debian server 's IP: 192.168.0.3

I created the user account 'john' by using adduser command
Am I suppose to use the account 'john' and the password or NTL's in the outlook setup?

Any suggestions?
