Fetchmail

wasamzy · 12-21-2010, 07:14 AM

Hi All,

I have fetch mail in my root directory like this:

set no bouncemail

set postmaster postmaster@dot.com.gh

set logfile /var/log/fetchmail

poll pop.teledataict.com

protocol pop3

localdomains dot.com.gh

archive dot.com.gh

no dns

envelope X-Envelope-To:

qvirtual dot.com.gh

user "maildot3@teledataict.com" there

pass "mail"

is *

here forcecr

nokeep

flush

dropdelivered

fetchall

This works perfectly as I want. But right now, what I want is, I want fetchmail to download mails for more than one or several accounts in different domains and different pop servers.

How can I improve this rc file to accomplish my task?

Regards
Emma

Just start with the global settings

Code:

set syslog
set postmaster "postmaster"
set bouncemail
set no spambounce
set properties ""
set daemon 300

Then you can add a rule for every account

Code:

poll mail.server1.com with proto POP3 user 'USER' there with password 'PASS' is user here
poll mail.server2.com with proto POP3 user 'USER' there with password 'PASS' is user here

Kind regards

Thank you for your reply. But one thing I forgot to mention is that, I am doing this on qmail server, which have virtual domains and users but not unix type accounts. Will your settings work for them as well?

Thanks!
