[PLUG] Fetchmail to POP3 Mailserver


I was wondering if anybody had an answer for me.

I am using fetchmail to retrieve mail from a mail server at our headquarters and place the individual's mail in to their respective /var/spool/mail/xxxx mbox's.

This works great.

But now I have a request to retrieve mail from the server and transfer to another pop3 server at a branch office.

The branch office is not allowed to access the main mail server.

can this be done?

I don't see anywhere in the fetchmail conf to actually map to an address (pop.mail.com) instead of the mbox on the linux host

I am being dense or missing something?

Any help will be gladly appreciated.

The host the does the transferring is using sendmail. Would it be configure there?

Thanks

Joe Welsh
