Dialup hourly

I have a 5.1.2 server where the hourly option for mail fetching does not seem to work, but as soon as we set it to 5 mins, email gets picked up.  The ISP has confirmed that no email was picked up for 24 hours.

Is this a known problem? I searched in the archive, but found nothing.

cheers

Not AFAICT, although it was customer, and he was reading it out over the phone.

We switched to 5 mins, then 15 mins, then 1/2 hour with no problem.  It may be working hourly now, he hasn't called me back!
