fetchmail error--

repo · 04-30-2011, 07:24 AM

I can reach the server from the outside, and it's accepting connections.

Code:

repo@cannabis ~]$ telnet 202.137.236.11 110
Trying 202.137.236.11...
Connected to 202.137.236.11.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK <21485.1304162386@pop.rediffmailpro.com>
quit
Connection closed by foreign host.
repo@cannabis ~]$

So seems to me there is a problem with the firewall or the router.
Are you connecting from the inside to the outside and back in?
Some routers don't support this.
Does the server has a private ip?

However when you are connecting to 127.0.0.1, you connect to

Code:

+OK <29898.1304146121@abc.co.in>

The server on 202.137.236.11
is

Code:

pop.rediffmailpro.com

Are you sure you're connecting to the correct server?

Kind regards

Telnet is the same in windows or linux.
You should learn to use google.
