What does it tell? Often there is one on each message.
I have redirected admin to myself and also my 'alias' and another pop-acount.
I use multi with dungog.net multipop 0.1-3 on five pop3
Peter R,

I used to get this when I set up my own Linux firewall....
In your cron file, pipe the STDOUT and STDERR to /dev/null - the email you are getting IIRC is the output of the cron job startmail.
The system doesn't know what to do with it and just dumps it to a message to admin

Thanks Adam,
A friend of mine helped me with file fetchmail. There was a 'silent' option to put in.

No problem
Don't happen to know if any of the multipop mods work with e-smith 5 do you ;-)

I don´t know .... installed my V5 yesterday. I can´t get the single pop-mail to function! What I type in is gone next time I look there ... Eehh ....
V5 is buggy ...

Has anyone else found this bug.....
When setting up it asks for your dialup acct (nb, config is Private Server/Gateway - Dialup)
When it then dials up it drops the final T of the ATDT line
so ATDT becomes ATD and it took me a lot of messing round to find that!

I changed the template for fetchmail, "/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/fetcmail/50multi-drop".
old:
$OUT .= "/usr/bin/fetchmail --syslog $verbosity ";
$OUT .= "--fetchmailrc - <
new:
$OUT .= "/usr/bin/fetchmail --silent --syslog $verbosity ";
$OUT .= "--fetchmailrc - <
run e-smith-manager and uppdate e-mail config.
