No, that is the version of smeserver-fetchmail installed. It appears you do not have fetchmail installed.

Code: [Select]
rpm -q fetchmail

will verify.

Code: [Select]
yum install fetchmail

will correct the problem.

However, you still have a mystery as to how 'fetchmail' came to be not installed - did you perhaps do:

Code: [Select]
rpm -e fetchmail

at some stage?

You should also report a bug against smeserver-fetchmail. It should have 'Requires: fetchmail' in its rpm spec file.
