Thank you for your reply. reinstalling fetchmail is not the solution
because on the next start the problem comes back and (I must be stupid)
because despite all the ideas you give me I cannot kill the background
process of fetchmail.
The solution: purge fetchmail and install getmail6.
Getmail6 works well, without complications.

Thanks again.

Gerard
