Re: Problems with fetchmail

Oluwagbenga, I followed your tips (thank you) and found that a file
called my_name.lock was created in /var/spool/mail when I fetched my
mail. Then in the logfile "access denied" to that file. I have not
solved the problem yet but it feels that I'm on my way. Thank you.
