Fetchmail and Exim config problem



I'm very close to have all of my net functions working.  I can ftp, 
ping, and browse the web with Netscape.  I can get mail from my ISP 
with netscape, but I really don't want to be stuck with that as my 
mail reader.

I'm trying to configure exim and fetchmail.  I've read all the 
documentation and I still can't solve my current problem.

With exim running as a demon from root, I type the following:

# fetchmail -u gbelton -p POP3 -s mail.msy.bellsouth.net

and it returns the following error messages:

fetchmail: SMTP listener doesn't like recipient address 'gbelton'
fetchmail: can't even send to calling user!
fetchmail: SMTP transaction error while fetching from 
mail.msy.bellsouth.net

Help!
