Title: Running fetchmail and standard email simultaneously??
Post by: Steve Watford on July 19, 2003, 12:43:06 AM

I am running V5.6u4 and all is well. About six months ago we stopped having our ISP gather our mail and switched from multi-drop to standard mail delivery. All is well. Now, I need to have the server also run a fetchmail process to gather some mail from a different pop account hosted elsewhere and then dump these emails into our users imap accounts. Is this possible with user contrib of fetchmail? I am also using the user-manager panel to allow users to handle there own procmail configs which is working great as well. I think I coould go in an configure a fetchmail script to handle this but would rather do it through the sme interface if possible.

Thanks

Here's a thought...

Setup the server for multidrop from your new pop account
Put the server back into standard mode
put your /etc/fetchmail file into a cron job
job done...
