# /etc/init.d/fetchmail and run "update-rc.d fetchmail
# defaults".  A fetchmailrc file containg hosts and
# passwords for all local users should be placed in /root
# and should contain a line of the form "set daemon <nnn>".
#
# To remove the service, delete /etc/init.d/fetchmail and run
# "update-rc.d fetchmail remove".
