I have just setup squirrelmail postfix and curier-imap and I want to know how to get fetchmail to get my mail off my isp and allow me to view it in squirrelmail...
Maybe it is easy, probably is.. But Im rather new to fetchmail..
Sorry
Thanks in advance _________________ [img:5c38d54d9d]http://djsleepy.servebeer.com/images/logo.gif[/img:5c38d54d9d]

Postfix, when properly configured, will know what to do when fetchmail gets your mail. But you need to tell postfix to use maildir instead of mbox format. You probably know this.
This guide will give you the fetchmail / postfix side of things. That's probably all you need to get going. |

I would get the mail fetch plugin for squirrelmail to check pop3. Its at
http://www.squirrelmail.org/plugins.php along with tons of other neat plugins. To setup a plugin all you need to do is extract it to the plugins directory and run squirrelmail/config/conf.pl
Then Choose #8 Plugins from the menu to configure plugins and pick the plugins you want to enable. |
