Re: [fetchmail-users] Fetchmail incorrect header yahoo

[Andrew B. <re...@co...>]

Ok guys... I've verified that this isn't a fetchmail issue. It appears 
to be a freepops issue. However, my questions still stands... Is there a 
way to force fetchmail to deliver the messages even if there isn't any 
header information?
