Title: Help with mailfilter
Post by: Ed Hamlin on February 27, 2003, 08:57:29 AM

Hi. I've already searched the posts on mailfilter, and I haven't solved my problem.

I have installed dungog multipop with pre filtering on my v5.5 server, however, mailfilter doesn't seem to preconnect to my external pop servers. It's configured for multidrop mail through a cable modem. I don't have any problems getting my pop mail, it just isn't getting prefiltered by mailfilter.

Looking at the maillog file, I see the following:

Feb 26 21:50:02 MontyPython fetchmail[19686]: pre-connection command failed with status 6
Feb 26 21:50:02 MontyPython fetchmail[19686]: Query status=5 (SYNTAX)

I'm sure it's something simple like a permission problem, but I haven't done anything to any of the stock configuration files, and nothing in ownership or permissions seems to jump out and indicate a problem there.

Sure would appreciate some assistance!

TIA,
Ed
