[fetchmail-users] Using fetchmail with command line options only (no .fetchmailrc file)

[Dennis W. <dew...@cs...>]

Hello fellow fetchmail'ers

I am trying to use fetchmail from the command line, but I can't find 
examples of how to do it.  Specifically, I need it to get the password 
from the command line:

I have tried something like the following

fetchmail -S mail.target.com --keep --uidl poll mail.source.com proto 
POP3  user 'dewoller' password 'password' 'tar...@ta...'


Failing this, is there a way to get fetchmail to read it's configuration 
from a designated run file, instead of the default '.fetchmailrc'?

Thanks

Dennis
