fetchmail, why does it do this?
Hi,
while investigating about the problem with getting external mail
(I get some obscure errors, suddenly:
skipping message 880 not flushed
reading message 881 of 1261 (3233 bytes) .fetchmail: SMTP error: 501 <@public.uni-hamburg.de> : colon expected after route
fetchmail: SMTP error: 501 <ingo> : sender address must contain a domain
fetchmail: SMTP transaction error while fetching from public.uni-hamburg.de
)
I found this:
I have a local user named tester, and try to get his mail with fetchmail,
this works only if I send to address: tester@localhost
it does not work with: tester or tester@debian.virtual.de.host
Can someone explain this?
regards,
Ingo
