I think I get that. But, I tend not to do anything on the command line, (I forget various syntax, etc). About all I would do is fetchmail --quit and then restart.
So, if I do that, assuming I have not touched anything since last cold start, anything in the config file should be in effect?.
My startup script is in (being SUSE) /etc/init.d/rc5.d/S97fetcmail (and /etc/init.d/rc3.d/S97etchmnail, symbolic links, actually).
Is there any way to make those (that) read the config file, instead of using what is entered there? Without a major re-write. Or should I just be content with having hacked about to make them have the same values? As far as I can tell.
