Getting help with fetchmail:

There is a fetchmail-friends list for people who want to discuss fixes and improvements in fetchmail and help co-develop it. It's at please read the FAQ (especially item G3 on how to report bugs). We tend to get the same three newbie questions over and over again. The -FAQ covers them like a blanket. Actually, I'll answer the most common -one right here: If you've tried everything but can't get multidrop -mode to work, it is almost certainly because your DNS service (or your -provider's) is broken.

+FAQ covers them like a blanket.

Fetchmail was written and is maintained by Eric S. Raymond. -I wrote a paper, The Cathedral -And The Bazaar, about these theories and the project. It was well -received at Linux Kongress -'97 and the Atlanta Linux -Expo two weeks later. I also presented it at Tim O'Reilly's Perl Conference August -19th-21st 1997, at LinuxPro in Warsaw, December 11 1997 and at -UniForum '98 in May 1998. It's going to be the basis for an invited -presentation at Usenix '98. A lot of people like it (and the folks at -Netscape tell me it helped them decide to give -away the source for Netscape Communicator).
