That worked for one provider, but not for gmail. I had to go with... |
14 |
|
15 |
poll ########### protocol pop3: |
16 |
username "############" password "<password>" is "########" here |
17 |
ssl |
18 |
fetchall |
19 |
mda "/usr/bin/procmail -m ~/.mailfilter/.procmailrc": |
20 |
|
21 |
poll pop.gmail.com protocol pop3: |
22 |
username "##########" password "<password>" is "########" here |
23 |
ssl |
24 |
fetchall |
25 |
mda "/usr/bin/procmail -m ~/.mailfilter/.procmailrc": |
26 |
|
27 |
That works for both. I have a couple of other providers to set up. |
28 |
Question... is there a way to declare "ssl" and "fetchall" as default |
29 |
global settings that apply to all providers in ~/.fetchmailrc |
