[fetchmail-users] 'fetchmail --quit' behaviour

[Sebastian T. <se...@sm...>]

Happy International Worker's Day to all.

I run a personal fetchmail daemon with the following user crontab
entry:

  @reboot /usr/bin/env FETCHMAILHOME=/home/sebyte/.fetchmail.d /usr/bin/fetchmail -e 100

This works fine, but when I want to kill the daemon process, I receive
the following message:

  $ fetchmail --quit
  fetchmail: no other fetchmail is running

A fetchmail is most definitely running:

  $ ps -A | grep fetch
   3907 ?        00:00:00 fetchmail
  $

I suspect this is because I'm running fetchmail in its own
environment, so how to cleanly kill fetchmail in this case?
