[fetchmail]Distinct destinations to messages fetched with fetchmail from different mail servers

Hello.

I am happy using fetchmail to fetch my mail messages from my ISP provider
POP3 server. When received in my local mail box, these messages passes
through procmail, which put them in defferent mail folders according
to some criteria I have established in the procmail recipe file.

Now I need to fetch mail messages also from a new server (my university).
These mail should not be classified by my procmail recipe as are the
ones from the ISP provider. Instead they should go directly to a
specific mail folder.

How can I configure my Red Hat Linux 7.2 system to cope with this
situation? My current .fetchmailrc file is attached.

Certainly the adition of a rule for the new server is not enough.
May I have to put some new (unique) mark in the header of the messages
from the new server and add a rule in my procmail recipe to
identify such messages, remove the added mark and save it to
the mail folder it belongs to. Is this doable with
fetchmail? If yes, how? Maybe this is the ideal solution, as
later I may decide to do more sofisticated filtering with
the messages with procmail.

Another solution would be to not pass through procmail and
save the messages from the new server directly to their
mail folder. Is this doable? If yes how?

Regards.

Hi Kasper.

I'm not totally sure I understood your question, but here is a
link about asking questions on mailing-lists such as this - 
(somewhat appropriate on the fetchmail list :-)

http://www.tuxedo.org/%7Eesr/faqs/smart-questions.html
(found this on www.eclipse.org, btw).

Seriously, I didn't understand exactly what you were trying to 
achieve, but perhaps somebody else might have ?

[fetchmail]Cygwin Winsock recv/WSARecv(..., MSG_PEEK) patch

Eric,

Attached is a patch (against fetchmail 5.9.11) that works around the
Microsoft Winsock recv/WSARecv(..., MSG_PEEK) problem that I originally
post to fetchmail-friends in:

    http://lists.ccil.org/pipermail/fetchmail-friends/2001-August/000906.html

This patch is essentially the same as the one that I posted in:

    http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-08/msg00628.html

but cleaned up as follows:

    o Cygwin specific code is guarded by conditional compilation
    o log messages use report() instead of printf()
    o log messages respect the --silent/--verbose options

Would you consider accepting this patch into fetchmail CVS?  Note the
following:

    o Unfortunately, this problem cannot be fixed or worked around in
      the Cygwin DLL itself.
    o I have tested this patch under Red Hat Linux 7.1 without any ill
      effects.
    o I intend to become the Cygwin fetchmail (and procmail) maintainer
      and will be contributing pre-built fetchmail (and procmail)
      tarballs to the standard Cygwin distribution.

BTW, please CC me since I am not subscribed to the fetchmail-friends

Can someone please unsubscribe me from this list. I've followed the link 
at the bottom of the messages and I can't figure out where the 
'unsubscribe' button is located.

Re: [fetchmail]Question

Hi,

Surely. You just have to write a script that watches /var/log/messages
(or wherever your pop3-server logs to) and kicks off fetchmail if it
sees a pop3-login. Or, if your pop3-server is able to do this (like e.g.
tpop3d) you could start fetchmail by the pop3-server.

AFAIK fetchmail connects by default to the SMTP server on localhost.  Just 
tell it to use whatever SMTP server address you want - see "smtphost" in the 
man page.

    Please don't CC me on anything sent to mailing lists or send
        me email directly unless it's a privacy issue, thanks.

[fetchmail]aclocal.m4 is buggy (fetchmail-5.9.11)

Hallo fetchmail-friends,

I'm getting this during configure:

checking version of bison... v. ?.??, bad

I have:
$ bison -V
bison (GNU Bison) 1.34

And aclocal.m4 looks like this:
...`$INTLBISON --version 2>&1 | sed -n 's/^.*GNU Bison .* \([0-9]*\.[0-9.]*\).*$/\1/p'`
                                                     ^^^
                                                   This space
                                                   isn't there
                                                   in the output of
                                                   bison --version

It seems this aclocal.m4 is based on some older template (or a buggy
one).  IIRC it was a bug in gettext.m4 before gettext-0.10.40.
