fetchmail standard input

[Victor Yoalli Dominguez Torres <yoalli@tij.uia.mx>]

I have a problem with fetchmail.

I want my fetchmail configuration to be dynamic, then what I am doing it is generating it. And then passign it to fetchmail like this. with something similar to this:

echo "configuration text... " | fetchmail -f -

I am getting a syntax error 

...there with password '123456' is 'bar@domain.foo' here fetchmail:-:1: syntax error at 123456

This only happeneds when I am using a numeric password.

This error doesn't appear when I use a .fetchmailrc file. Only with dynamic config and numeric passwords.

Thanks for any help or idea.


I am using fetchmail 5.9.11 and I have also tried 6.2
