fetchmail and shutdown



Hi all:

I've used default skelton to create /etc/init.d/fetchmail script. All
I edited were the varialbe assignments at the top. I then executed

update-rc.d fetchmail defaults 99

Two questions:
1. Running fetchmail only makes sense in networking mode. So, will it
get started if ever I have to boot into a single-user runlevel?

2. What will happen at shutdown? If fetchmail is in the middle of
getting mail, will it shutdown properly? It has -q option to turn it
off, but I have nowhere to specify that in the script. Should I have?

Thanks for any input,
