fetchmail shows a weird behaviour



Trying to set up my mail system using
fetchmail and testing for the first time
by:
fetchmail -k -vv

I got a error and no messages in
/var/spool/mail/fr
only a
  /home/rland/.fetchids

file.


these are the last lines the debug information
gave out:

fetchmail: POP3< 9 2469

What do the "rewrite" logs mean, why does fetchmail
report a smpt error though terminating 'normal'
and where have my messages disapeared too   :-(


Any help is grately appreciated
