I don't think your problem is with fetchmail, but with whatever is waiting
on port 25 to receive the post from fetchmail. Sendmail/Exim/Postfix
usually lurk there to receive the goods. Which MTA are you running? What do
you get if you do
$telnet localhost 25
?
I run postfix and get...
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 glynthebearded.localdomain ESMTP Exim 3.12 #1 Mon, 11 Dec 2000 07:18:53 +0000
You should get something similar if the MTA is set up properly.
