Or use ESR's fetchmail, the swiss army knife for getting mail to your
server. Example /etc/sendmail.conf for ETRN use that will do an ETRN on
the remote server every 10 minutes:
--- cut here ---
set daemon 600
set syslog
poll remote.mailserver.example with proto ETRN
fetchdomains localdomain.example
--- cut here ---
If the remote mail server only allows ETRN from authenticated users, see
the man page for details on how to set up authentication.
