[fetchmail-users] Running fetchmail as root for all users

[Stephen A. <fet...@ro...>]

The subject may be a little misleading... in my scenario we have 10 ISP 
POP3 accounts that map to 8 local users.  The way I set it up a few 
years ago was fetchmail running as root and collecting mail for all POP3 
accounts.  I've since discovered that fetchmail is normally run on a 
per-user basis.

Given that the users never log in to a shell, what is the best 
configuration in my case?  Are there pros/cons of doing it either way?

Many thanks,
Steve :)
