+# Quick hack for fetchmail to locally spool messages.
+#
+# To spool:
+# fetchmail --mda "fetchspool -t %T %F"
+# To de-spool
+# fetchspool -f
+#
+# Robert de Bath <robert@mayday.cix.co.uk>
+# updated by william boughton <bill@xencat.demon.co.uk>
+# 4th/10/1998 and tested
+#
+# William Boughton comments:
+# Still has some potential problems, with using inline from address.
+# The use of _ is bad because fetchmails uses this if it notices
+# shell escapes.
+# 10th/11/1998
+# Changed to using 3 _@@s to delimit the message, i hope this is ok.
+# Whilst i have tested and used this script, with my demon account and
+# SDPS, it may still have serious problems, that i've not noticed etc.
