fetchmail crashes
Fetchmail has been crashing on me recently. The error is:
fetchmail: reading message 11 of 120 (2244 bytes) . (log message incomplete)
fetchmail: SMTP error: 501 <@adam.ist.flinders.edu.au> : colon expected after
route
fetchmail: SMTP error: 501 <mark> : sender address must contain a domain
fetchmail: SMTP transaction error while fetching from adam.ist.flinders.edu.au
In the header of the offending email is:
Sender: "Ole J. Tetlie" <>
Leading me to suspect that this is the problem. I have emailed Ole
asking him to fix his configuration, however I think it strange that
such a small mistake should bring down fetchmail. Perhaps a warning
message would be appropriate, but as a result of the crash, I can't
access any of the rest of my emails unless I manually log onto a
computer at uni and delete the offending message!
Any comments/ideas?
Thanks,
Mark.
