Thanks Tony. That's got me thinking. I think it is fetchmail, but I'm
not sure. I'm off to look at the fetchmail web pages.

What I don't understand is - what changed? It used to work and now it
doesn't! I'd not swear that I didn't change something. It's my home
system, so I'm always tinkering! But I don't remember changing
anything in this area. I've looked in the usual areas for hints,
logfiles and so on and I'm currently mystified!

Cheers,

Cliff
