[Fetchmail-users] poll server failover with multiple DNS entries

[BASSAGET C. <ced...@gm...>]

Hello,

I'm trying to poll a pop3 server resolving on different IP addresses :
# dig pop.dom.tld +short
1.2.3.4
1.2.3.5

when running fetchmail, it tries to reach one of the two servers, and at
the end of the (-t) timeout, fetchmail exits without trying to poll the
other server.

So if one of my pop3 servers is unreachable and this is the one choosed by
fetchmail, it does not work.

Is there a way to tell fetchmail to poll others IP resolved by dns name
"pop.dom.tld" if the first one fails ?

Regards
