Hi,
I have set up an Ubuntu machine as I have set other Debian machines with
fetchmail and dovecot. I must have fumbled something in some configuration
file because my mail ends up in /var/mail/<username>.
Here is the output of dovecot -n
# 1.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 2.6.32-39-generic i686 Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS ext4
log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S
login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login
login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login
mail_privileged_group: mail
mail_location: maildir:/home/%u/Maildir
mbox_write_locks: fcntl dotlock
auth default:
passdb:
driver: pam
userdb:
driver: passwd
Here is fetchmailrc (with passwords changed)
# Configuration created Sat May 26 22:14:17 2007 by fetchmailconf 1.52 $Revision: 4740 $
set postmaster "paul"
set bouncemail
set no spambounce
set properties ""
set daemon 60
poll mail.ultrasw.com with proto POP3
user 'waterhorse at ultrasw.com' there with password 'secret' is 'paul' here
TIA for any ideas,
Paul
