problem with fetchmail on linux

Luk Vandenbussche — Wed, 12 Sep 2007 09:30:41 GMT

We are using fetchmail to copy mails from an exchange server to linux server.

For a whole part of the mails, the destination is chaging to

fetchmail: SMTP> RCPT TO: : xpsa is the user who runs the fetchmail problem

Any ideas how we can solve this problem

fetchmail normally does that when you don't map a remote name to a local user. In the fetchmailrc you usually want something like "user remoteusername is localusername here".

This is the content of my file fetchmailrc

poll SERVER protocol POP3 localdomains mycompany.be no dns username "USERNAAM" password "PASWOORD" no keep rewrite fetchall to *

Which entry do you advise me to add?
I can't add all the remote users as local users.

So it's using 'localhost/21025' instead of 'mycompany.be' for the multidrop?

Weird. What version of fetchmail?

Have you read through the multidrop notes in http://fetchmail.berlios.de/fetchmail-FAQ.html ?
