[PLUG] fetchmail, POP, and directories
|
My domain host offered me a free upgrade to my service
and I took it. It's on another server and there is some
transition time where both servers are running and the
email is being delivered to either one (depends on the
routing - I changed the registrar of the domain and,
therefore, the nameservers too).
The problem I'm having is that I cannot get the email from
the new server. I use fetchmail. On the old server the
POP server got the mail from my directory, not from /var/spool/mail.
On the new server, POP looks in /var/spool/mail but the mail is
in my directory.
Is this my fault or the configuration of the POP server?
If it's my fault, how to I tell fetchmail to look elsewhere to
get the mail? I don't see and option (for POP3) to set that.
TIA
Eric
