[fetchmail-users] Re: fetchmail-users digest, Vol 1 #39 - 2 msgs

[pongthep <pkr...@eg...>]

Sorry for dumping old thread.
After failing with fetchmail 6.2.2 and retrieved mails with telnet for a while.
Now I turn into FreeBSD5.4 with fetchmail 6.2.5 (old already).
Same configuration, which did not work with fetchmail 6.2.2, works very nice with new fetchmail 6.2.5.
So it seems my old fetchmail 6.2.2 was buggy or something wrong with that.
Just for your information.

thanks for all of your help :)
