Specify a hunt list of hosts to forward mail to (one or more
-hostnames, comma-separated). In ETRN mode, set the host that the
-mailserver is asked to ship mail to. Hosts are tried in list order;
-the first one that is up becomes the forwarding target for the current
-run. Normally, `localhost' is added to the end of the list as an
-invisible default. However, when using ETRN or ODMR mode or Kerberos
-authentication, the FQDN of the machine running fetchmail is added to
-the end of the list as an invisible default. Each hostname may have a
-port number following the host name. The port number is separated
-from the host name by a slash; the default port is 25 (or ``smtp''
-under IPv6). If you specify an absolute pathname (beginning with a
-/), it will be interpreted as the name of a UNIX socket accepting LMTP
-connections (such as is supported by the Cyrus IMAP daemon) Example:
